This fundamental meta-category subsumes within itself both ‘duality’ (dvaita or bheda) and ‘non-duality’ (advaita or abheda) in a resolution that, on the surface, appears to be nothing more than an oxymoron. How can two mutually opposing categories be one? However, for Abhinavagupta, both ‘duality’ and ‘non-duality’ are the basic building blocks of an all-encompassing singular meta-category called ‘absolute non-duality’ (paramādvaita). This version of non-duality argues for inclusivism, i.e., for any idea of binary to manifest, someone fundamentally recognises the distinction between, for instance, a ‘pot’ (ghaṭa) and a ‘non-pot’ (aghaṭa) and it is this distinction (dvaita or bheda) that unitarily brings a pot and a non-pot together (advaita or abheda). By saying this, Abhinavagupta is not suggesting that a pot is a non-pot and a non-pot is a pot. But they are singular manifestations in a plural form of and in a singular principle, i.e., non-dual consciousness (advaitasamvit). Using a more contemporary terminology, this form of non-duality may be called ‘pluralistic non-dualism’ or ‘subjective pluralism’, understood in the sense that even two mutually opposing labels, such as ‘pluralistic idealism’ or ‘idealistic realism’, can be used. </video> <video> DAY 3 - 8th INDIA LAND AND DEVELOPMENT CONFERENCE 2024 Description: The prestigious conference brings together industry experts, practitioners, policymakers, and stakeholders from across the globe to discuss land and development.

Despite this, there has been no systematic attempt to trace how the general consensus about the Sulbasutras' significance has evolved since they were first introduced to the Western world in 1875 by Georg Thibaut. This talk addresses this gap by examining the writings of key figures such as Moritz Cantor, Otto Neugebauer, and others whose works played a significant role in reducing the Sulbasutras to little more than a footnote in the history of mathematics. </video> <video> In Defence of Sanskrit: The Many Voices and Visions of a Literature by Shonaleeka Kaul Description: Contrary to modern misconceptions that associate Sanskrit with narrow obscurantism, this talk serves as a reminder of the vast and diverse repertoire of this remarkable literary tradition. Sanskrit has encompassed not only nearly every knowledge system known to humankind but also a multiplicity of voices and perspectives. However, contemporary scholarship often labels Sanskrit as elitist and disconnected from the wider world. This talk challenges this assumption by examining a range of Sanskrit texts, moving towards a deeper appreciation of its reach and relevance in early India. </video> <video> Global Perspectives with Dr. S.
