Gotz, Ignacio L. – Educational Theory, 1995
Discusses moral education, examining how the notion of self arising within India's Vedanta tradition differs significantly from America's and how an education that proposes to foster the development of self would be at variance with American ideas. Teachings from the Bhagavad Gita are examined to explain the Vedantic concept of self. (SM)
