Classical Nyāya
Teacher: Prof. Matthew R. Dasti
Nyāya is a leading school of classical Indian philosophy. It is pioneering in epistemology, metaphysics, and logic in particular for all the philosophies and world views of India. The word nyāya means “method of reasoning” and is often translated with the shorthand “logic.” Nyāya’s development as a school of philosophy includes dimensions of metaphysics, ethics, and philosophy of language.
The Nyāya Sūtras by Gautama Ṛṣi present the essence of classical Indian Nyāya. This course presents some of the most important debates and discussions among logicians and samples of the major views and arguments of the early school of Nyāya. These include a defense of the existence of the self, an argument that God must exist as creator, and a vindication of the reality of the world against Buddhist skeptics and idealists.
All great people don’t harbor on the mistakes of others. They try to see what is good and encourage that. By your behavior, you can bring out the bad in others or the good in others. That’s what people do – we always try to see the faults in others. That is the conditioned mind that thinks like that. But Krishna helps others to realize that there is a beautiful soul that is a part of God.
