Description
Indian Theism from the Vedic to the Muhammadan Period traces the evolution of religious thought in India, from the early Vedic period to the arrival of Islam. Vedic theism, initially polytheistic and centered around gods like Indra and Agni, evolved with philosophical schools like Vedanta, emphasizing Brahman, the supreme reality. The Bhakti movement later focused on personal devotion to one god. The arrival of Islam introduced Islamic monotheism, influencing Indian religious practices and fostering interaction between Hinduism and Islam.
