This book is primarily a philosophical reconstruction based on original translations of relevant parts of Vyasatirtha's Sanskrit philosophical text, the "Nectar of Logic" (Nyayamr ta). Vyasatirtha wrote the Nyayamr ta as a vindication of his tradition's theistic world view against the Advaita tradition of Vedanta. In the centuries after it was written, the Nyayamr ta came to dominate philosophical discussions among Vedanta traditions in India.
The Advaitins argued for an anti-realist stance about the empirical world, according to which the world of our experience is simply an illusion that can be dispelled by a deep study of the Upanisads. This book reconstructs the parts of the Nyayamr ta where Vyasatirtha argues in favor of the reality of the world against the Advaitins. Philosophically, it focuses on the concept of existence in Vyasatirtha's metaphysics, and on his arguments about knowledge and the philosophy of perception.
