Teacher: Babaji Satyanarayana Dasa
Navya-nyāya is the name given to the new school of Nyāya that developed in Navadvipa, which preserved the traditions of both Nyāya and Vaiśeṣika. Its main focus is to define terms in a precise manner and then to formulate or evolve a language as a precise medium of communication. It is keen on rationally explaining human behavior based on cognition, which necessarily refers to relation – an essential concept in this school of thought.
This course introduces the basic concepts of the Navya-nyāya literature and many technical terms which are systematically explained in Navya-Nyāya-Bhāṣā-Pradīpa, a primer of Navya-Nyāya language and methodology. This is followed by a study of Tarka Saṅgraha, which is an entry-level book that is a systematic overview of Nyaya/Vaisheshika in its newer (navya) period.
Don’t upset the minds of people who are ignorant. You should think that you belong to Krishna and you don’t want Him to be criticized because of something you say or do. This is where awareness comes in. You have to constantly be watching every situation – study yourself and decide how is the best way to act that would most please Sri Krishna.
