Understanding New Perspectives of Spirituality

  • Publisher: BRILL

This volume was first published by Inter-Disciplinary Press in 2015. This book deals with the rapidly developing field of spirituality. Although having a singularity of focus, the chapters have been written by a cross-cultural and international set of researchers who discuss critical issues from an interdisciplinary perspective. Thus, while a broad range of critical aspects emerge, the chapters are threaded together by the concept of spirituality as a lone walk. While alone, the spiritual journey is also deeply connected to others. As a deeply human experience the chapters in this book therefore reflect the prismatic viewpoints that form the understandings and experiences of the spiritual walk. This book challenges the reader to start to understand the apparent ambiguity this appears to bring to researchers and practitioners. Rather than a roadblock to understanding, the multiple frames and facets this brings it is instead a rich field for the exploration of the human condition.

The Bhagavadgita Knowledge and Wisdom

This book is developed during studies on The Bhagavadgita to address different aspects growth and development of Knowledge and Wisdom in human beings. It is also developed to address ever growing aspirations of fellow scholars who want to link up Knowledge and Wisdom to teachings of The Bhagavadgita. The context of the Holy book was exhibiting the situation of conflicts developed during Epic Ages. If we remove the context of the war of Kurukshetra then the core of Yoga Philosophy along with all sorts of integrations appears equally relevant in the modern context. In that way this publication may not be considered as a sole representation of all the teachings inscribed in the Epics, but it can be accepted as a synthetic approach to link up all the teaching on the basis of addressing issues and concerns of the modern context.

Moral Judgement

Moral Judgement

This book is the first to introduce readers to contemporary philosophical works on moral judgement stemming from France, Germany and the Anglo-American world – many of which remain untranslated. By integrating Kantian and Aristotelian reflections on this subject, the author combines historiography and critical reflection to offer a rich picture of what it means to make good moral decisions. As both Kantians and Aristotelians argue, moral judgements are ultimately grounded in the normativity of practical identities. Thus, it is by identifying the obligations tied to the multiple dimensions of our identities (e.g., friend, teacher, romantic partner, citizen) that we can ultimately understand how we ought to act. Yet, Aristotle and Kant also remind us that doing so requires the acquisition of moral virtues which allow us to better discern practical reasons in concrete situations.
