Indian Knowledge System and Wellbeing

Beschreibung

This book is an interdisciplinary book that bridges classical Indian philosophy with contemporary research in cognitive science, psychology, and holistic health. The book brings together novel contributions that explore how ancient frameworks—such as the Bhagavad Gītā, Yoga Sūtras, Sāṅkhya, and Ayurveda—can inform modern understanding of the mind, consciousness, and emotional wellbeing. Topics include cognitive models of the psyche, psychological flexibility, prakṛti-based mental health frameworks, yogic and Ayurvedic therapies for anxiety and stress, and the neurobiology of intuition and meditation. The book also examines cultural and aesthetic dimensions of wellbeing through architecture, nāda (sound therapy), marma therapy, and personality theories rooted in Indian traditions. Contributors offer empirical, conceptual, and practice-based insights into how Indian Knowledge Systems (IKS) can contribute to contemporary mental health and consciousness studies.
