<p>The issue of time and infinity or eternity has been studied across every civilization since antiquity and nearly by all religions. This volume by Coomaraswamy covers the concepts of time and eternity from Hindu Buddhist Islamic Christian and modernday spiritual movements. It covers passages collected from the Vedas Upanishads and other Hindu sacred scriptures Buddhist sangha literature Sufi kalams Biblical literatures and the commentaries and treatises written by the Christian ascetics monks and theologians. Coomaraswamy in his book adopts a comparative approach in describing all these traditions. About the Author Ananda K. Coomaraswamy (22 August 1877–9 September 1947) is a Ceylonbased metaphysician historian theorist and philosopher of Indian art. He brought the Indian tradition of art into the western world. He was also seen as the bridgemaker between western and Indian art and phil­osophy as he was much inspired by Hindu and GrecoRoman trad­itions. His works were influenced by the Traditionalist and Perennial Schools of Philosophy. He authored several books which were based on the traditional arts metaphysics and social criticism. He was also the curator of Indian art at the Boston Museum of Fine Arts.</p>
