some of the indian philosophers selected so far....
David May
RABINDRANATH TAGORE. For his universalism and a recognition that we are both intellect and emotion - either functioning without the other will lead to disaster.
Tina Grace
GHANDI ""Be the change you want to see in the world" says it all.
J.D. Anderson
NAGARJUNA (13TH CENTURY BUDDHIST PHILOSOPHER) Because Eastern philosophers are largely ignored in the West and the Madhyamaka philosophy inspired many of the great philosophers of Europe eg Heidegger to a more holistic and humanitarian ethos.
Terri Rawlings
JIDDHU KRISHNAMURTI who said Truth is unapproachable through any organisation, creed,dogma, priest or ritual nor through philosophical knowledge or psychological technique. Only through understanding the contents of our own minds through observation and not through intellectual anlysis or introspective dissection.
Nigel Kahn
His Holiness Maharishi Mahesh Yogi. for making the goal of most philosophical searching -- to live at peace with oneself and others -- available on the level of practical experience, through his techniques of consciousness.
Michael Gadd
Ghandi for his role in the development of Non violent direct action
Sean Davitt
KRISHNAMURTI Joined together the wisdom of the east with the technological world of the west. In plain simple English for the modern world to understand and take the responsibilty to act for themselves and not wait for salvation from another source.
Kent Pedersen
PRABHAT RANJAN SARKAR When the world was devoid of any modern philosophy, he gave the philosophy of Ananda Marga and that of the Progressive Utilisation Theory. A unifying universal philosophy.
Clark Forden
PRABHAT RAINJAN SARKAR Progressive Utilisation Theory, NeoHumanism, Microvita, and much, much, more. Mr. Sarkar is an phenom, yet to be discovered and widely accepted. His contributions to Humanity are vast and need to be given serious consideration.
Mik Bailey
P R Sarker. Because his philosophy is the tidiest blend of socio, psycho, spiritual and economic theories, all bound in to one beautiful world organising treatise.
Dharma Deva
P R SARKAR Combines spiritual, psychic (mental) and physical aspects of life in one comprehensive whole.
John Darwin
NAGARJUNA It is disappointing to see the western-centricity of the list prepared here. There are some powerful thinkers from other traditions, one of whom is Nagarjuna, the Indian philosopher who in the first century CE was saying things that remain very relevant today, and foreshadow current debates on epistemology and post-modernism. Let's take a global view!
not many indians are voting and not many indians are selected for the election. india produced more philosophers then any other country in the world but it seems like india is going to LOOSE!!!!!!!!!!!! ::) :'(
please VOTE :) |
