The Best Books on The Philosophy of Art
What is art? Does it have to be good? Is it up to a museum curator or other expert to decide? If so, how did the first art arise? Philosopher Noëll Carrol chooses the best books on philosophical q. surrounding art
My taxi stopped at a toll point on Noida-Delhi road. But my mind hasn’t stopped wondering what this roadside sculpture meant.
Is life an endless mix of mundane and meditative moments? And is art an endless exploration of that mix?
#Sengol is the latest RSS-BJP factoid.
In the typical mould of Abrahamist (Christian, Islamic & Communist) strategy, the #Chaddis have not just learnt but perfected the the art of creating false atrocity literature in their favour and use it to abuse their opponents and/or Hindus who don’t support their deracinated… Show more
interesting that many people here are comfortable with idea of power of ruling India "being transferred" from British to Indians.
Usually independence movements involve power "being won" after fighting the colonial rulers.
British leaving behind rule of India to Indians cannot be equated with the ancient monarchy transfer of power from father King to son.
Hence association of sengol/Raj danda with such a "transfer" of power seems mistaken, IMO.
Yeah I was also confused why people are getting emotional over that.
So basically despite their anti Brahmin views, it's ok to invite them?
200 Pauranik temples broken in Kashi to build corridor. Nice job of remembering the heritage.
you probably don't realize how much Mvdi follows Chacha. There's one thing you have to give to Chacha : No PM, no govt. has been able to give an alternative to his secular model.
BJP/ Mvdi screamed Hindutva and all but when power came they too became Nehruvian.
While Jawaharlal Nehru is widely recognized for his contributions to India's independence and nation-building, his policies have also faced criticism. It is important to acknowledge different perspectives to have a balanced understanding of his tenure. Here are some common… Show more
This is always the problem with BJP. Turki supremacism is too deep there. Nothing much can be done.

Sri Aurobindo on whether the world is a dream

Although they are regarded as the one Supreme Divine, Sri Aurobindo remains in the background while The Mother receives all affections, accusations, and complaints of the devotees. In that capacity, she is quite unique among the world's religions. Her evolutionary role is vital.
Many from the Hindutva camp come down heavily on those who criticise religious matters. But instead of blaming the person, they should find fault with their education or ideology. Sri Aurobindo has laid great emphasis on right education but unfortunately, Universities banish him.
Religious festivals and fairs serve diverse purposes and impart powerful impressions on one's memory system. The function of education is to arm one with critical faculties for examining the worth of acquired experiences. Sri Aurobindo provides a very effective template for this.
Group activities are often mistaken as spirituality but the real challenge is as individual. Each person has his or her unique situation and psychological framework. Tackling them successfully requires acquiring new skills and developing fresh capabilities. Yoga links with Grace.
Geography, demography, and culture and tradition are different in each State. Political history and mythological connections too are unique. Denying Sovereignty is an utter injustice. Let's hope that the new building doesn't function for long and power gets transferred to States.
The appeal of everything changes over time and hence anticipating the future is important. Political parties pander to the emotions of young adults but guiding them towards mature thought should be a priority. Management and technical education too orients in the wrong direction.

Being from the RKM background, many Hindutva intellectuals hold high regard for Vivekananda. But over the last five years, the message has spread gradually that Sri Aurobindo is a far more original and authentic thinker. This will grow as more and more people will read his books.
