Advaita

school of Hindu philosophy; a classic path to spiritual realization

text with a philosophical foundation similar to Advaita Vedanta

Vijñāna () or viññāa () is translated as "consciousness", "life force", "mind", or "discernment".

Neo-Vedanta, also called neo-Hinduism, Hindu modernism, Global Hinduism and Hindu Universalism, are terms to characterise interpretations of Hinduism that developed in the 19th century. The term "Neo-Vedanta" was coined by German Indologist Paul Hacker, in a pejorative way, to distinguish modern developments from "traditional" Advaita Vedanta.
