An Idealist View of Life presents S. Radhakrishnan’s vision of idealism as a philosophical lens through which to view human existence and reality. Drawing on the wisdom of Eastern thought, especially Vedanta, Radhakrishnan explores the nature of consciousness, self-realization, and the role of the individual in the universe. He contrasts Western materialism with Eastern spiritualism, arguing that the mind, not material reality, shapes the world around us. The book emphasizes the importance of ethical living and the pursuit of higher knowledge. Through his analysis of both Indian and Western philosophies, Radhakrishnan provides readers with a compelling argument for idealism’s relevance in understanding life, morality, and the cosmos.
