I love Philosophy around the world. It is knowledge just begging to be understood.

 

I am fairly new to Indian Philosophy.

 

What are some of the best Indian philosophers?

Adi Sankara, Ramanuja, Madhva, Nimbarka, Vallabha and Chaitanya Mahaprabhu represnt the six major schools of Vedanta. All of these except Adi Shankara are Vaishnava sects.

 

Kapila was the great sage of Sankhya philosophy.

Thank You! I can not wait to look up these philosophers on the internet for my personal studies. Thank You again. :)

There have been a lot of others too. Some of the Indian web sites should be maintaing long lists. Please do a google search. You should find details on everyone starting from the buddhist times to the present day Osho and Sai Baba.

 

Wikipedia may have a nice list too. Curiously, I was in Shanghai recently and discovered Wikipedia is blocked in Shanghai. Strange...

 

Cheers

The Communist Chinese block many things. :(

I will have to search for other Indian philosophers as well. :)
