Classical and Contemporary Indian Philosophy

Classical Indian Philosophy consists of nine schools, namely, Nyaya, Visheshika, Samkhya, Yoga, Mimamsa, Vedanta, Charvaka, Bauddha, and Jain. All these philosophical schools gave immense contribution by analyzing the nature of the self, the mind, the world, and all the world's constituents. Most of the scriptures on classical philosophy are in Sanskrit literature, while many are in Pali and Prakrit. Many Indian thinkers in the recent past have immensely contributed to the philosophical tradition of India. Aurobindo, Swami Vivekananda, Pandurang Shastri Athavale, Osho are some of the remarkable contemporary Indian Philosophers. Our academic experts in classical philosophy execute research exploring diverse principles by decrypting texts in Sanskrit Pali and Prakrit language.
