Philosophy
All disciplines belonging to the Hindu culture are based on a philosophical vision, on spiritual traditions and holy scriptures.
During the meetings, videos-films about the great epics or the life of spiritual characters and Indian mystics are shown, fostering the contemplation on philosophical and spiritual subjects.
The different traditions are studied together with the sat darshana, the “six visions” or “six points of view” of reality, belonging to the six orthodox philosophical schools:
Mimamsa (ritualistic vision)
Vedanta (speculative-philosophical vision)
Nyaya (logical vision)
Vaisheshika (atomistic vision)
Samkhya (enumeration, investigation of the principles of the universe)
Yoga (experimental vision).
