Dear colleagues and friends,

With apologies for cross-posting, I am happy to share that my book “Deciphering the Hidden Meaning: Language and the Highest Good in Early Advaita Vedānta” has been published by OUP in open access (the hardbound volume to follow in a month or two). Hopefully the title is sufficiently informative of the topic, but here is the webpage with more information. The pdf is available here.

The book is published as part of the Rocher Indology Series, edited by Patrick Olivelle. I wish to thank here the Rocher Foundation for including the book in the series and supporting financially its availability in open access, and to Professor Olivelle for seeing the volume through publication.

Best wishes,

Aleksandar
