I munch The Man who knew Infinity & Argumentative Indian by Amartya Sen.
Apart from this i am on a systematic diet of Ananda Vachanamrtam after doing Idea and Idealogy and Anand Sutram.The seminar notes and the cheap literature not to be counted.
My impressions about Argumentative Indian.
An amazing book which not only defines your thought about the topic but also defines the kind of impact a book can have on your thinking and subsequently on your life.I am through with 5 sets of essays.The first part mainly about religion and culture in India.
The part i completed just now was Sen's essays on Tagore.Rabindranath Tagore, all my impressions about him were from the nationalist's perspective.Whenever i occupied the debate chair,i had a very shallow view of Tagore.As a guy who philosophised in thin air being oblivious to the reality.I had him fit into the old image of poet that i had cheerfully built in.Offlate the my notion of poets or artists as meek dreamers has been moulded greatly.But still my notions of Rabindranath Tagore needed to be moulded greatly.Contrast of Tagore and Gandhian views on celibacy and sex was where i started to read the chapter.In a sense this essay captures a lot about the personality.I always say people not to limit but for sure speak out their impression about things.In this light Tagore for me is a weak strong man with high intellectual capacity.A poet with charm and original insight.In the Anandamarga view wasnt he using great amoutn of the ability of the brain.He disintegrated into the vast sublime.He always was able to dismiss notions from words and rational.He saw humanism as a step towards perfection not he nationalism.A true champion Tagore but nevertheless a great orater is Amarty Sen
I leave the set 5 of the essays with a completely diffrent notion about Tagore,this notion is founded on both perspectives and stronger and deeper than the earlier one.
Also in between,i did The Munich Mannequins by Slviya Plath where she talks about perfection and describes Munich as the Morgue between Paris and Rome.It makes a great reading to demonstrate the issues which the modern American women confront.

Notions about Yoga
Well i decided to spit some thoughts or scrible some words on the blank board so that i some day use this as formative notions or prpagatory idea.I wanted to write to you a few thoughts about yoga in particular and yoga research in particular.My motivation for such a formation is because i am exposed to many things through Ananda Marga.But i am very sure this was required since other forms of learning and research have been crippled by some events in my countries past.Apart from the impact colonial occupation had on
I talk in particular about asana and pranayama including yogic diet. I think before i dwell in detail about the above mentioned topics and my thoughts,i would give a brief introduction about myself. I am Tapan Vikas, currently working in munich.I come from a small village in Karnataka near Sringeri. I like you am an engineer,but probably this is where the similarities end.I am an eager enthusiast in explorartion and inqusitiveness.I did my bachelors in Electronics and communication from SJCE mysore and further went on to pursue my masters in VLSI from IIT Delhi.I am no god men and trying to find my way away from religion.Can we work for the research of Today i sit back
to recollect my thoughts about yoga.Currently i am reading Bhagavatgita and my notion of this book is that it is a book of ethics and philosophy.
I also see a mention of yoga in there.Recollecting my notions about yoga,i remember many names of persons and organisations. P.R Sarkar,
Ravi Shankar,Aurobindo, many god men and also as many organisations.I first of all have a great intrest in discussing your views on the topic.
It is true that we are as a sciety undergoing a paradigm shift in the way we learn.After reading aurgumentative indian from Amartya Sen i am more
inclined to say that we are a victim of Mills history and Macualy policy.Macualy policy basically challenged our basic research and propagation model in india.
It put the notion of Institutes of higher learning as opposed to saffron.I guess and believe that you are not the one who holds such notion but if you do hold such a notion
we still can take it as a minor digression from our main point.What i dont like to see is only godmen speaking about Yoga.So in my

Two ends of the spectrum
Two ends of thought propagation are following and Intellectual jugglery or imposition and non-concern.Is there a line in between the two.A rationally aligned one.Whose duty is it to arrive upon one.I think Application of Nicomacheaen ethics for the problem is called for.For sure,if thought propagation is required at all for human existence is a very fundamental question but is outside the scope of the essay.Further Kants naive view about enlightenment as religious emancipation does contain certain reason if resolved orthogonally can be applied to the problem
Ananda Marga Pracaraka Samgah would have two roles.Creating an equal platform like a king without favoring any particular teaching.As well as participating in the refinement of the ideas.
This for me is a direct understanding of the goal, to make seminars universally accepting.Contacting the chair of Philisophy not only with objective of propagation but also with the goal of questioning.
In my usual drifting indiscipline,i just try to picture Kants life.How it might have been.A person who had alternate view on mostly the very basics of human knowledge evelution,constitution of matter, and what not.This for sure makes me feel that people around him perceived him as an eccentric.So the thought in isolation from the person is a very important step for nature to survive.
How fast and effective Ananda Marga Seminars are?
Acceptance is an virtue or Aristotealian ethic.The faster we accept and rationally we evaluate so will AM be established.It is not my concern nor matter to be associated with the end state.I want to be instrumental in the cause in a very rational way.I will hate myselfeven more for being a non-doer than for being a wrong doer.
Some USP'S and ideas,for Kants centernary and celebrations.
