The Indian philosophical tradition offers a non man centric vision of the cosmos where the non human world remains as important as the human ! These insights are perhaps more important today than in the ancient past @IHCDelhi @tibethouse @kg_suresh

In the effort to philosophically unpack the Indian tradition the IHC ICPR lecture series -convened by @kg_suresh and co-convened by me -looks forward to this lecture ! The Buddhist philosophy of dependent origination and codependence leads us to realise that harming the ecosystem is quite literally harming oneself !#earth #indianphilosophy

Indeed the future of humanity belongs to Tagore for he spoke of education as the ultimate foundation for peace in the world;suggesting that education should aim at helping the individual to enhance the boundaries of his/her limited life and grow into a sense of affinity with others @dpradhanbjp #education
महान साहित्यकार, दूरदर्शी शिक्षाविद और राष्ट्रगान के रचयिता रबीन्द्रनाथ टैगोर जी की जयंती पर उन्हें कोटि-कोटि नमन करता हूँ। गुरुदेव का अद्वितीय साहित्य और शिक्षा के प्रति उनका प्रगतिशील दृष्टिकोण आज भी समाज को दिशा प्रदान करता है। उन्होंने भारतीय संस्कृति की आत्मा को विश्व मंच पर प्रतिष्ठित करते हुए ‘एक भारत, श्रेष्ठ भारत’ की भावना को सशक्त आधार दिया। उनकी रचनाएँ राष्ट्रचेतना का अमर संदेश हैं, जो आने वाली पीढ़ियों को निरंतर प्रेरित करती रहेंगी।
