A collection of the lectures of Max Muller, India: What it Can Teach Us portrays India, especially Vedic India, as an epitome of virtue and morality, whose glory is equal to classical Greek and Roman thought. Muller, in these essays, urges the West to abandon their superior colonial mind-set to adopt the multi-dimensional efficacy that is inherent to Indian culture.

He was one of the founders of the Western academic field of Indian studies and the discipline of the study of religions. Müller’s numerous scholarly works were published as an 18-volume Collected Works.
