It offers a systematic analysis of the three philosophical theories of Quietism, Agnosticism and Mysticism and introduces readers to the fundamentals of mystical knowledge claimed by philosophical schools of the east and the west. It discusses, debates and deliberates on philosophical issues concerning the acquisition of truth, its objectivity and its various dimensions along with the application of thoughts pertaining to Quietism, Agnosticism, and metaphysical-mystic traditions in philosophy. It examines and precisely defines the scope and limits of knowledge, the respective way of life, its expressions and morality, mystical revelation, ineffability of the ultimate, value realism, and faith and reason - with a primary focus on the classical Indian schools of Hinduism, Buddhism, Jainism, Agnosticism, the B?uls, Greek traditions, modern western meta-philosophy, and contemporary quietist debate in religion and theology. This insightful collection should be of great interest to independent researchers, students and teachers of philosophy, theology, Mysticism and Agnosticism, cultural studies and religious studies. 410 0$aReligion and Philosophy Series 606 $aReligion$xHistory 606 $aSpirituality 606 $aKnowledge, Theory of 606 $aHistory of Religion 606 $aSpirituality 606 $aEpistemology 615 0$aReligion$xHistory. 615 0$aSpirituality. 615 0$aKnowledge, Theory of. 615 14$aHistory of Religion. 615 24$aSpirituality. 615 24$aEpistemology. 676 $a211.7 702 $aPathak$b Krishna Mani 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 912 $a9910520062203321 996 $aQuietism, Agnosticism and Mysticism$92584592 997 $aUNINA
