Course Announcement
Course
The depth in Indian epistemology was acquired because of serious dialogues among philosophical systems. Over a period of time, by the 10th century AD, a need was felt to develop a precise medium of communication in order to understand one another’s position or point of view to make the dialogue meaningful. That medium goes by the name of Navya Nyaya Language. After the Language took shape, almost all systems of knowledge in India started writing treatises in this very language of Navya Nyaya. As it were, it became a universal language of scientific discourse during medieval period and continues to be so even today in some traditional educational institutions. All our intellectual achievement of the last 1000 years is in the works written in this language.
But our present Sanskrit education programmes do not offer any course on Navya Nyaya Language. As a result, all the texts on various knowledge systems are just lying without readers.
We are, therefore, going to offer a Four Level graded course in Navya Nyaya Language and Methodology from 2019. The distribution of the Levels is as follows :
Level-Zero : Foundation Course in Navya Nyaya
Level-One : Introduction to Navya Nyaya Language and Methodology
Level-Two : Navya Nyaya Method of Decoding Language
Level-Three : Navya Nyaya Theory of Decoding Negative Sentences
(The Level Zero : Foundation Course In Navya Nyaya is going to be offered in March 2019.)
Structure of the Course
Each level will be offered in two parts : (1) Reading of an original Text and (2) a Set of Lectures elaborating concepts, technical terms, theories and issues of the system.
Duration of Each Level
10 to 12 days
Who can Join ?
Anyone interested in learning and knowing Indian intellectual, philosophical and spiritual culture. No background of Sanskrit is a pre-requisite.
Advantage
All those who are interested in or working in the areas of Language technology, Artificial Intelligence, Machine Translation, System Science and the like can derive insights from this course.
