About the Book

Book description

The roots of Indian psychology is go back to the Vedic period of the Indian sub-continent. According to current historical reckoning, the Vedic period dates from about 1500 BCE. Ancient Indian scriptures contain very rich, empirically derived psychological theories that are, however, intertwined with religious and philosophical content. This scriptures represent our attempt to extract the psychological theory of cognition and consciousness from a prominent ancient Indian thought system; SamkhyaYoga. The importance of Samkhya-Yoga can be seen in that references, to it are to be found everywhere in the most important texts, such as the early Upanishads, the Bhagavad-Gita, and also in the other parts of the Mahabharata. These hypotheses address an ancient personality theory, the effects of practicing the applied part of Samkhya-Yoga on normal and extraordinary cognition, as well as different ways of perceiving reality
