Namaste everybody!

I am Arun - a spiritual sojourner based in Kerala.

I am interested in understanding Hinduism in particular, and dhArmic spirituality in general as coherently as possible. I am driven by an urge to understand India's classical thought more deeply. How did the ancients think? What is of perennial value in their worldview, and what is only merely incidental? What light can their thought shed on modern impasses, and vice-versa? That sort of thing.

I am especially troubled by a dissonance that I notice between India's classical worldviews and the modern worldview that informs our everyday lives. It's as if we inhabit a split universe, with one side rooted in classical India, and the other in the thought systems that have their roots in the West. It won't do to throw out one in favor of the other. At some point, we have to carefully investigate how they can be reconciled. I hope to be part of this conversation.
