S. N. DasGupta's Hindu Mysticism is a concise and serious study of the mystical traditions of Hindu religious and philosophical thought. Written by one of the major twentieth-century scholars of Indian philosophy, the book examines the spiritual disciplines, metaphysical ideas, devotional currents, and philosophical foundations that shaped Hindu understandings of union, liberation, knowledge, and direct religious experience. DasGupta approaches mysticism not as vague sentiment, but as a disciplined tradition rooted in scripture, practice, and metaphysical inquiry.
The work is especially valuable for readers interested in Hinduism, Indian philosophy, Vedanta, yoga, comparative religion, religious experience, and the history of mysticism. DasGupta's treatment places Hindu mystical thought within a wider intellectual framework, making clear how spiritual practice, philosophical reflection, and the search for ultimate reality belong together in the Indian tradition. For students of religion, Eastern philosophy, Hindu spirituality, and classic works of comparative mysticism, Hindu Mysticism remains a thoughtful and authoritative introduction.
