The authors here are trying to show that there is an essential identity between Indian and Western philosophies until the sixteenth century in regard to subjects, methods, results, presence of irrationality, lack of freedom of thought and absence of truth for its own sake. In support of this thesis the authors compare doctrines of the most ancient texts of India like the Vedas and Upanishads and of the Samkhya philosophical system with the doctrines of Western philosophers, indicating several points of contact.
