Pensamentos entre o antigo e novos cenários de sociedade: Identidades e Cultura
Este grupo de trabalho tem como proposta abrir espaço para debates so-bre pensamentos e modos de vida de pessoas que construíram suas iden-tidades em suas diversas perspectivas com base em modelos de diversas cultura e costumes que se confrontam na sociedade contemporânea em suas múltiplas acepções de vida. Os debates abordaram as relações de gênero, cultura, história de famílias, pessoas que se destacaram diante de grupos e que sem registros de suas memórias, poderiam acabar no esquecimento. Sendo cultura e identidade conceitos de difícil definição de vida pela sua amplitude, o simpósio abraçou diferentes visões e pro-postas, buscando promover a aproximação entre os profissionais de di-versos países com realidades e concepções diferenciadas tendo em vista a riqueza da troca de experiências e saberes relacionados às temáticas em estudo.
The Sāṃkhya System
The Sāṃkhya System brings new life to an ancient Hindu system of thought. Sāṃkhya spans the fields of philosophy, physics, metaphysics, psychology, and ethics. Although notably not theological, its key premises can be found in virtually all religious traditions that originate from India. Sāṃkhya espouses a reciprocity between Prakṛti, the realm of activity, and Puruṣa, the silent witness. It also delineates the phenomenal experiences that arise from Prakṛti, including the operations of the human body, the five great elements, and the eight mental states. Sāṃkhya proclaims that knowledge of world and self can lead to freedom. This book presents a new translation of Īśvarakṛṣṇa's Sāṃkhya Kārikā, with grammatical analysis. It includes interpretive essays that explore the philosophical aspects of the Sāṃkhya system by Geoffrey Ashton, Ana Funes Maderey, Mikel Burley, Christopher Key Chapple, and Srivatsa Ramaswami, as well as its sociological and psychological applications as delineated by Marzenna Jakubczak, McKim Marriott, and Alfred Collins.

Against Dharma
An esteemed scholar of Hinduism presents a groundbreaking interpretation of ancient Indian texts and their historic influence on subversive resistance Ancient Hindu texts speak of the three aims of human life: dharma,artha, and kama. Translated, these might be called religion, politics, and pleasure, and each is held to be an essential requirement of a full life. Balance among the three is a goal not always met, however, and dharma has historically taken precedence over the other two qualities in Hindu life. Here, historian of religions Wendy Doniger offers a spirited and close reading of ancient Indian writings, unpacking a long but unrecognized history of opposition against dharma. Doniger argues that scientific disciplines (shastras) have offered lively and continuous criticism of dharma, or religion, over many centuries. She chronicles the tradition of veiled subversion, uncovers connections to key moments of resistance and voices of dissent throughout Indian history, and offers insights into the Indian theocracy’s subversion of science by religion today.
