At the fundamental level, it is the Vision of Reality (Drști) that guides the Generation of True Knowledge (Prama). The visions of reality, in turn, are shaped by the culture we live in. Culture comprises the thoughts, perceptions, and values that we imbibe, uphold, and cherish concerning both the physical and the metaphysical worlds.

As are the visions of reality, so are their corresponding epistemologies. This book closely examines and compares the Western and Bharatiya traditions of knowledge generation in terms of their ontological and epistemological positions upheld by their respective schools of thought, the domains of knowledge they explore, the frameworks they have developed, the nature of enquiry they undertake, and the processes of knowledge they practice.
