The document discusses the Renaissance in India and its key characteristics according to Sri Aurobindo. It describes three phases of the Renaissance: 1) reception of European influence which led to reconsideration of Indian culture, 2) a reaction to European influence through reaffirming Indian culture and spiritual ideas, and 3) a new phase of creation where Indian spiritual power shapes and takes possession of modern influences. Overall, the Renaissance in India was governed by a turn towards spiritual realization through philosophy, art, and politics while also adopting useful aspects of Western science and modern ideas.

Prothalamion by E. Spenser, a spausal verse a poem of elizabethan era - piyu...piyush prashant
prothalmion by Edmund spenser
a rare poem
Prothalamion, the commonly used name of Prothalamion; or, A Spousall Verse in Honour of the Double Marriage of Ladie Elizabeth and Ladie Katherine Somerset,[1] is a poem by Edmund Spenser (1552–1599), one of the important poets of the Tudor Period in England. Published in 1596[1] (see 1596 in poetry), it is a nuptial song that he composed that year on the occasion of the twin marriage of the daughters of the Earl of Worcester; Elizabeth Somerset and Katherine Somerset.
Prothalamion is written in the conventional form of a marriage song. The poem begins with a description of the River Thames where Spenser finds two beautiful maidens. The poet proceeds to praise them and wishing them all the blessings for their marriages. The poem begins with a fine description of the day when on which he is writing the poem. "Calm was the day and through the trembling air/The sweet breathing Zephyrus did softly play." The poet is standing near the Thames River and finds a group of nymphs with baskets collecting flowers for the new brides. The poet tells us that they are happily making the bridal crowns for Elizabeth and Katherine. He goes on his poem describing two swans at the Thames, relating it to the myth of Jove and Leda. According to the myth, Jove falls in love with Leda and comes to court her in the guise of a beautiful swan. The poet feels that the Thames has done justice to his nuptial song by "flowing softly" according to his request: "Sweet Thames run softly till I end my song." The poem is often grouped with Spenser's poem about his own marriage, the Epithalamion.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

The renaissance in india
1. The Renaissance in India
Sri Aurobindo
By Poojaba Jadeja
by Poojaba Jadeja
2. Introduction
• Renaissance in India is like Irish Celtic revival
• Chaotic and formless situations
• Bounds of past and bounds imposed from
outside
• Reasons for Decline
by Poojaba Jadeja
3. Decline of India
• reducing fire of life, disintegration, political
anarchy and inaction for creative spirit
• superimposed European culture
• 3 facts and phrases of the decline
– the great past of Indian culture and life with the
moment of inadaptive torpor into which it had lapsed,
– the first period of the Western contact in which it
seemed for a moment likely to perish by slow
decomposition, and
– The ascending movement which first broke into some
clarity of expression only a decade or two ago.
by Poojaba Jadeja
4. Soul of India

• Religious instinct and idealism
• Sense of Infinite
• Pride for ‘their’ everything

it of the values of the spirit.

– Taking up of the aesthetic, emotional and
sensuous being into service of the spiritual.
– (last fine flower (age) of Indian spirit)
by Poojaba Jadeja
11. 3 movements of retrogression
• a sinking of that superabundant vital energy
and a fading of the joy of life and the joy of
creation.
• there is a rapid cessation of the old free
intellectual activity, a repetition of ill-
understood fragments of past knowledge.
Loosing their real sense and spirit.
• Diminution of the power of Indian spirituality
by Poojaba Jadeja
12. • Decline and European entry
• Opposite (westernize) civilization
• New efforts are imitative of foreign culture
• Crude impact of European life and culture gave 3
needed impulse
– Revived dormant intellectual and critical impulse
– Rehabilitated life and awakened desire for new
creation

ideals.

renaissance is arising.
by Poojaba Jadeja
13. 3 steps for reformation
• Recovery of old spiritual knowledge
• Spirituality into new forms of art, philosophy,
science etc
• Original (Indian, spiritualized) dealing with
modern problems
by Poojaba Jadeja
14. The process of Renaissance
• The first step was the reception of the
European contact,
– a radical reconsideration of many of the
prominent elements and some revolutionary
denial of the very principles of the old culture.
by Poojaba Jadeja
15. First step continue…
• Westernized intellectuality, modernity and
civilization
• Free activity of intellect to subjects of human
and national interest.
• Originality
• It threw ferment of modern ideas into the old
culture
• Past with new eyes, reconsideration of ancient
culture
by Poojaba Jadeja
16. Second step
• A reaction of the Indian spirit upon the
European influence,
– sometimes with a total denial of what it offered
and a stressing both of the essential and the strict
letter of the national past.
– its way by an integral reaction, a vindication and
reacceptance of everything Indian as it stood and
because it was Indian.
– The works of Bankim Chandra Chatterji and Tagore
– Preservation by reconstruction by Vivekananda
by Poojaba Jadeja
17. Third step
• a process of new creation in which the
spiritual power of the Indian mind remains
supreme
– the ancient goddess, the Shakti of India mastering
and taking possession of the modern influence, no
longer possessed or overcome by it.
by Poojaba Jadeja
18. Great movements - renaissance
• Intellectual approach to spiritual realization
• Rationalistic and secularist religious
reformation
• Eternal motives of Indian religion Gnan,
Bhakti, Karma
• Reformation of Samajes – Brmho samaj, Arya
Samaj etc

20. Indian philosophy of Spirituality
• Renaissance governed by spirituality
• Spirituality holds mind, body, life – important
as an instruments of spirit, means not aims
• Healthy fullness of mind, life, body
• Body too can be means for fulfilling the
Dharma which ends in discovery and
expression of the divine self in man
by Poojaba Jadeja
21. Western Philosophy and Indian
Spirituality
• Inquiry for the first truth of existence, with
reason and science (western philosophy)
• Example - Existentialism
• Indian spirituality – Truth of existence can be
found by intuition and inner experience
• Spiritual realization, growing of the human
being into divine self and divine nature
by Poojaba Jadeja
22. Spirituality in Art, poetry, politics…
• ‘The primitive aim of art and poetry is to
create images of man and nature which shall
satisfy the sense of beauty and embody
artificially the ideas of the intelligence about
life and the responses of the imagination to it;
but in a spiritual culture they become too in
their aim a revelation of greater things
concealed in man and Nature and of the
deepest spiritual and universal beauty.’
by Poojaba Jadeja
23. Spiritual aim in Art, poetry, politics…
1. A framework of life – man can seek and grow
into his real self
2. An increasing embodiment of the divine law
of being in life
3. A collective advance towards the light,
power, peace, harmony of the diviner nature
of humanity
by Poojaba Jadeja
24. Conclusion
• India should cast-off clothes of European
thoughts and life
• …Admit Western science, reason,
progressiveness, the essential modern ideas, but
on the basis of our own way of life and
assimilated to our spiritual aim and ideal
• India can best develop herself and serve
humanity by being herself and following the law
of her own nature
• Religion ruined India as we made ‘the whole of
life religion or religion the whole of life’
• Should edit excessive externalism of ceremony,
rule, routine, mechanical worshipby Poojaba Jadeja
25. “India has the key to the knowledge and conscious
application of the ideal; what was dark to her
before in its application, she can now, with a new
light, illumine; what was wrong and wry in her
old methods she can now rectify; the fences
which she created to protect the outer growth of
the spiritual ideal and which afterwards became
barriers to its expansion and farther application,
she can now break down and give her spirit a
freer field and an ampler flight: she can, if she
will, give a new and decisive turn to the problems
over which all mankind is laboring and stumbling,
for the clue to their solutions is there in her
ancient knowledge.”
by Poojaba Jadeja
