THE INDIAN PERSPECTIVE
VONTAIR SUPARNA
15IPMH10
THE INDIAN PERSPECTIVE
▪ Relevant materials in
ancient Indian thought (not
to be mistaken with the
modern developments in
Psychology in India).
▪ Ancient Indian scriptures by
philosophers-theories of
perception, motivation,
cognition, consciousness,
emotion; theories on mind
and soul.
Indian perspective-personality
▪ Four motives - Dharma,
Artha, Kama, Moksha –
similar to Maslow’s
Hierarchy of needs.
▪ Six personalities
according to Buddhism:
- Ragacharith (attachment)
- Doshacharith (aggressive)
- Mohacharith (dull, idle)
- Buddhicharith (rational)
- Vithakacharith (imaginative)
- Sadvacharith (disciplined)
▪ Guru-shishya
relationship and
counsellor-counselee
relationship.
Indian perspective – The Triguna theory
Samkya
Prakti
Sattva Rajas Tamas
Purusha
Indian perspective–Yoga psychology
▪ Yoga means union.
▪ Methods to attain
superconsciousness.
▪ Four methods:
-Karma
-Bhakti
-Raja
-Gnana
Indian perspective-Buddhism
▪ Most 'scientific' religion.
▪ No soul; continuation of karma, through
different reincarnations.
▪ The four noble truths:
Pain,
Cause of pain (passion and lust),
Annihilation of Pain (i.e., the
possibility of ending pain or suffering),
The eight fold path leading to cessation
of pain.
▪ Nirvana – self-actualization –
desirelessness is the key.
THANK YOU.
“The self exists for itself. There is no
reality beyond it. It is the supreme goal
to be realized.” – Katha Upanishad.
