Abstract
The sharp theist-monist divergence concerning Brahman’s personal qualities becomes most serious. on the question of divine grace. For while the theistic Vedantin tended to see the very highest form of transcendence, again immanentally expressed, in the supreme Person’s freely bestowed grace, the monist is bound to regard such ideas as little more than anthropomorphic projections, to be interpreted in line with his dominant theme—the limited reality of all relational existence.
