On behalf of Karl-Stephan Bouthillette, main conference organizer:
On Friday 22 July, LMU (Munich) welcomed Prof. Ujjwala Jha and Prof. V.N. Jha, two well known Indian Nyāya and Mīmāṃsā scholars, to discuss the Yoga Sūtras. It is a rare event to have these two established scholars discuss issues of the Yoga Sutras from their own disciplinary and philosophical perspectives, a dialogical and hermeneutic approach that has never been undertaken so far within a Western academic context, and not even in India, where their previous attempt to do so did not unfold so far.
At a conference day on Saturday the 23rd, general issues on Yoga were broadly discussed by 7 speakers coming from various fields of Indological and Religious Studies research. On the 25th, they began an intensive week-long reading of the Yoga Sūtras with the Jhas: interpreting the Yoga Sūtras through a traditional style of Sanskrit commentary following the lines of Nyāya and Mīmāṃsā exegesis.
This sounds like an amazing discussion. Was it recorded, video or audio? If so, could we access? That would surely be appreciated by all here.
I posted this on behalf of Agnieszka, who’s had trouble logging in, so I’d ask her. (You can email me if you don’t have her address and if she doesn’t respond here.)
Dear friends,
I would like to ask if it is possibile ti get the
Ricording.
Thank you all for all that you do!
