    Historiography of Indian Philosophy: Reflections on Periodization and Conceptualization.Balaganapathi Devarakonda - 2022 - Journal of the Indian Council of Philosophical Research 39 (2):57-68.
    This paper provides one of the many ways of doing historiography, specifically concerning Indian philosophy. After making some general observations on the limitations of a historian and a historiographer in general—it would provide a brief analysis of the historiography of Indian philosophy by looking at the recent attempts at periodization. The development of 'Indian philosophy' as a label to a concept, issues concerning the use of darśana for its representation, and reeking it as a space of strange intellectual landscape by (...)

    Dharma as Principle of Self-denial and Emptiness.Geo Lyong Lee - 2022 - Journal of the Indian Council of Philosophical Research 39 (2):85-95.
    This paper aims to establish the meaning of Dharma as the principle of self-denial and emptiness. Dharma, a key concept in the religious thought of India, has the literal meaning of "supporter.” Something that supports something else does not exist for itself. Just as the truth supporting the universe is Dharma, so the four pillars supporting the roof of the house to prevent it from collapsing are also Dharma. The four pillars supporting the house do not exist for themselves, but (...)

    The Materiality of the Sign in Khasi Oral Tradition: Derrida’s Linguistic Materialism.Shining Star Lyngdoh - 2022 - Journal of the Indian Council of Philosophical Research 39 (2):151-168.
    Several interesting and significant philosophical, political and other possibilities abound in Derrida’s linguistic materialism, but the objectives of my paper are to describe the general tenets of Derridean linguistic materialism, and to deploy it in the context of Khasi oral tradition in order to lay bare the sensory origin of the sign. I therefore argue, firstly, that Derrida’s oeuvre espouses a nuanced case of linguistic materialism of the sensible-physical trace, which in its materiality is constantly in the process of standing (...)

    Nurturing Spirituality: In Conjunction with Integral Education.Akanksha Mishra & Alka Muddgal - 2022 - Journal of the Indian Council of Philosophical Research 39 (2):185-195.

It enables them to develop more completely and comprehensively. In a way, it is training for life. This research paper explicates the meaning, importance, and understanding of spirituality as a part of Integral (...)

    Selfhood and the Problem of Sameness: Some Reflections.Krishna Mani Pathak - 2022 - Journal of the Indian Council of Philosophical Research 39 (2):125-149.
    This paper examines the problem of sameness in terms of being it the classical problem of personal identity and various philosophical positions on the existence of the self as a substantive subject. I call this subject an ethical Self, which involves different notions of ego, being, substance, and personhood. The denial of the existence of a permanent self by philosophers like Hume and Buddhists does not seem justified in regard to one's identity or sameness over time. The no-self theorists do (...)

    Value Education: Eastern and Western Human Value and Virtues.Lakshman Patra - 2022 - Journal of the Indian Council of Philosophical Research 39 (2):69-84.
    The present education system is mainly object oriented material in nature but not subjective or spiritual. We study mainly subject viz. physic, chemistry, Biology, Computer, Applications, and Engineering etc.; which are related to the objective world, but we don’t ourselves, or the subjective world. There is story associated with a famous Greek philosopher, Socrates, who ones asked his disciples, what do you want to become in future?” One of them said that he wanted to become a lawyer, another wanted to (...)

    Moderate Realism and Deduction from Truthlike Theories.Kit Patrick - 2022 - Journal of the Indian Council of Philosophical Research 39 (2):169-183.
    Moderate realists hold that scientific theories are truthlike, rather than exactly true. Although scientific realism has been challenged by arguments such as the pessimistic induction, moderate realism hasn’t been challenged directly on the grounds that it makes scientific progress rely on inferences from theories that are only truthlike. This paper shows that moderate realism is incompatible with the claim that deductive arguments from scientific theories are reliable. Using truthlike claims as the premises of some patterns of deductive reasoning renders the (...)

    Cultural Conflicts and Global Peace. [REVIEW]R. C. Sinha - 2022 - Journal of the Indian Council of Philosophical Research 39 (2):197-207.
    In view of the Cultural Conflicts the world needs today tolerance. The present article entitled “Cultural Conflicts and Global peace” envisages deep concern about the cultural conflicts. We are dismayed at the gradual emergence of intolerance, deceit and violence in society and nation at large. The existence and the gradual strengthening of the dark forces have led to different kinds of conflicts in society and marginalization of poor nations. The future of both peace and civilization depends upon understanding and co-operation (...)

    Sri Aurobindo’s Philosophy of Nationalism and It’s Contemporary Relevance.Abhishek Kumar & Sudhir Singh - 2022 - Journal of the Indian Council of Philosophical Research 39 (1):33-42.
    There has been in recent decades very substantial work done on the concept of a nation, nationality and nationalism. In spite of the world coming together on many fronts—particularly, economy and a multicultural habitat formations especially in Europe and North America—these ideas remain politically volatile. In modern times, the idea of a nation has become powerfully associated with the idea of the state and the two notions are frequently used almost interchangeably. If among the emotional ties that form the basis (...)

    Buddha and Wittgenstein on the Notion of Self.Surya Kant Maharana - 2022 - Journal of the Indian Council of Philosophical Research 39 (1):43-54.
    The notion of Self plays a significant role in the philosophical speculations of Buddha and Wittgenstein. For the Buddha, ‘Self’ has empirical validity without ultimate reality. However, the Real Self is transcendent. It is the Absolute which is immanent as well as transcendent. It cannot therefore be bound to thought-constructions. The Absolute is Nirvāṇa; it is peaceful, immortal and unproduced which is unspeakable and can only be realised through immediate spiritual experience. To deal with Nirvāṇa rigourously, Buddha upholds a negative (...)
