Neoplatonism and Indian Thought

Chair: Vishwa Adluri (vadluri@hunter.cuny.edu)

Papers are invited on any aspect of the relationship of Neoplatonic thought to Indian philosophy. We are especially interested in papers on purification, Platonic and Neoplatonic soteriology, the soul’s journey, the indefinite dyad, androgyny, and polytheism. Contributions will also be accepted on aspects of Indo-European religion, especially linguistic studies of the IE roots for “being.”
