AbstractSince the nineteenth century, the conventional western narrative of the development of Indian philoophy has portrayed the sixth century B.C.E. as a turning point. Before this point, we are told, Indian thought was dominated by the idolatrous rituals of the Vedas. Only with the appearance of the Aranyakas and the Upanisads was this state of affairs improved. The authors of these new works sought to internalize the Vedic rituals, to discover, 'the inward universe of man himself', and from that point forward Indian philosophy was freed from the 'magic machinery of priestly ritual'. Contemporary with the Upanisads, early Buddhism was seen as a parallel reaction against Vedic ritualism, and therefore as similarly free from ritual.
