Morphology

Vedantist = Vedanta (transparent) = Vedanta + ist

Clearly formed by the productive English suffix '-ist' attached to the proper noun 'Vedanta' to indicate relation or adherence.

Etymology

Vedantist comes from the Sanskrit word Vedanta, which means 'end of the Vedas' because Veda is 'knowledge' and anta is 'end', just like the English word 'end'. The suffix -ist shows connection, so Vedantist describes something that is about those final teachings, which is why it means 'relating to the teachings of Vedanta'.
