Abstract

Loin de l’anthropocentrisme qui depuis quelques siècles règne en Occident, dans l’Inde ancienne la parole est tenue pour une force qui irrigue toutes les strates de l’être, de l’élémentaire au divin en passant par le végétal et l’animal. Au lieu de nous séparer du non-humain, elle devient alors ce qui nous y relie – tout en se reliant elle-même aux bruissements du monde non moins qu’à la musique. Dans cette perspective, le chanteur s’accorde aux oiseaux, le poète révèle les correspondances qui unissent l’infime au large, et le cœur de l’homme coïncide avec celui de l’univers.L’Inde vient par là nous rappeler qu’un cheminement spirituel peut prendre la forme d’une quête esthétique. Le dépassement de l’égocentrisme n’y passe plus par l’impératif de se rendre utile, mais par une joie devant la beauté qui, comme la vie, se donne pour rien.Nourrie par la pratique du yoga, du chant classique de l’Inde et des mantras, cette interrogation revient aux textes fondateurs de différents courants de pensée indiens, des Védas aux Tantras. Et elle les met en résonance avec certains mystiques et philosophes occidentaux, comme avec des thérapeutes de l’âme qui en appellent aussi à la puissance de la parole.

Abstract

What is the place of Eastern thought - Buddhism, Taoism, Hinduism, Confucianism - in the Western intellectual tradition? Oriental Enlightenment shows how, despite current talk of 'globalization', there is still a reluctance to accept that the West could have borrowed anything of significance from the East, and explores a critique of the 'orientalist' view that we must regard any study of the East through the lens of Western colonialism and domination.Oriental Enlightenment provides a lucid introduction to the fascination Eastern thought has exerted on Western minds since

Abstract

This volume of the monumental reference series being prepared under the general editorship of Karl Potter provides summaries of the main works in the Grammarian tradition of Indian philosophy. Describing the functions of language on different levels, from ordinary empirical speech to the poetic intuition of the divine, the Grammarians sought to demonstrate that the correct grammatical use of language and the devotional chanting of mantras are ways of moving from lower to higher stages of knowledge and self-realization. This work gives special emphasis to the thought of Bhartrhari, the great systematizer of the Grammarian philosophy. For those unacquainted with Indian philosophy, the editors' introduction provides an explanation of the basic concepts found in the Grammarian texts.Grammarian thought is based on the Vedas, and the writings of Panini, Patanjali, Bhartrhari, and others develop implicit Vedic ideas about language and its function. Their works combine a grammatical analysis of Sanskrit language with a philosophy that takes language as divine.Originally published in 1991.The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press. These editions preserve the original texts of these important books while presenting them in durable paperback and hardcover editions. The goal of the Princeton Legacy Library is to vastly increase access to the rich scholarly heritage found in the thousands of books published by Princeton University Press since its founding in 1905.
