This paper tries to evaluates the Postmodern thought with special focus on the key concepts like self, God and World and values by the key postmodernist thinkers of this novel Philosophy. It tries to reflect on the system of philosophies in West that aspired to foreground the existence of man in some fixed universal and objective truths. The truth has always been founded upon some metaphysical rational ideal and the quest of human struggle has been to attain such a truth. Such human aspiration has seriously been questioned by postmodernist thinkers to bring forth a paradigm shift. This paper gives a glimpse into the remarkable shift of thought.
