(d. circa 1048) to the study of comparative religion in his major work on India. Kozah concludes that a process of Islamisation is employed through a meticulous systematization of Hindu beliefs into one ?Indian religion?, preceding by almost a millennium the earliest definitions of Hinduism by nineteenth-century European Orientalists. This formulation of Hinduism draws on B?r?n??s interpretation of Yoga psychology articulated in the Kit?b B?tanjal , his Arabic translation of the Yoga-S?tra of Patańjali. B?r?n??s Islamic reading of Hinduism relies on certain common denominators that he identifies as being of fundamental importance. In the case of Hinduism he identifies metempsychosis as its unifying banner. 410 0$aIslamic philosophy, theology, and science ;$vVolume 97. 606 $aYoga$xHistory 606 $aPhilosophy, Indic 607 $aIndia$xCivilization$xStudy and teaching$zIslamic Empire 615 0$aYoga$xHistory. 615 0$aPhilosophy, Indic. 676 $a181.452 700 $aKozah$b Mario$f1976-$01499749 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910797621303321 996 $aThe birth of indology as an Islamic science$93726073 997 $aUNINA
