Overview of Philosophy as Samvada and Svaraj: Dialogical Meditations on Daya Krishna and Ramchandra Gandhi Book
Philosophy as Samvada and Svaraj discusses Daya Krishna and Ramchandra Gandhi's respective intellectual contributions and speculates how one might take forward the work of the two persons who were among the most brilliant minds of our times. Both Daya Krishna and Ramchandra Gandhi emphasized freedom and autonomy of thought and upheld the importance of samvada, somewhat inadequate in its English translation as dialogue and both of them were philosophers concerned with how philosophy might seek its svaraj, free from the orientalist hold of the religious, the colonial crippling of indigenous languages and institutions and the structures and categories of un-freedom that continue to haunt inhabitants of West and non-West. Philosophy must involve samvada an open dialogue and intimate encounter between self and other. Both philosophers experimented with these concepts and were enormously creative. This book is a testament not only to the core values of philosophy but also to how these values can be carried forward by new weaves of tradition and modernity.Table of Contents:ForewordIntroductionOf Love, Liberation and LilaFigure and Ground: Reflections on Two Exemplary Indian thinkersRamlila: A Metaphysics of the EverydayFalling in Love with a Civilization: A Tribute to Daya Krishna, the ThinkerThe Idea of Swaraj: Asymmetries of Power, Knowledge and Alternative, Ethical PoliticsGandhi and the Stoics: Squaring Emotional Detachment with Universal Love and Political ActionA Still, Small VoiceLearning to ConverseModes of SamvadTowards a New Hermeneutic of Self-inquiryOn Philosophy as Samvada: Thinking with Daya KrishnaThe Dialogue Must ContinueLanguage, Selfhood and PhilosophyThe Virtue of Being a SelfDaya Krishna's Presuppositionless Philosophy: Sublimity as the Source of Value and KnowledgeThe Moral and the Spiritual: A Study of the Self and the Not-self in Daya Krishna and Ramchandra GandhiOn Missing and Seeming to Miss: Some Philosophical Ramblings on the Subjective or Objective Distinction in Memory of Daya KrishnaDialogical Investigations on Daya Krishna and Ramchandra GandhiRe-Thinking Issues in The Arts or Ethics or Science or MathematicsThe Applicability of Indian Aesthetic Theory of Rasa to the Visual Arts: A Rejoinder to Daya Krishna's Article, 'Rasa-The Bane of Indian AestheticsThe Harmony PrincipleOn Mathematics and the Physical WorldOn Life and Death and DyingMatricide and Martyrdom: Cancer and Karm in the KalyugAfterwordIndex
