Shikha
Mahipal, who is one of the 12 students exhibiting their photographs, says her
conceptual works are based on Arana, a Sanskrit word meaning ‘depth’. According
to Shikha, her work reflects human desire and the journey of life and death.
“We as humans have so many desires. Some get fulfilled while others remain
unfulfilled until death. That is why the egg used in my pictures signifies
birth and simultaneously death - as an egg also denotes that the evolution of
the individual did not take place, hence leaving a lot of desires unfulfilled.”

ON HUMAN DANGERS Prosperity
and austerity in contemporary philosophy December 10, 2012 Ian Bogost
OOO
holds as a premise that philosophy, theory, and culture in general has been too
content in putting human affairs at the center of being and therefore
discourse, and that instead we should allow all things(including
people) to be of potentially equal impact and concern. So, in that respect, OOO
does ask us to expand our attention. And it makes this request
on ontological grounds, because it holds metaphysics to be an additive rather
than a subtractive philosophical medium. What does baffle
me is the assumption that taking the OOO position entails a turning away from
human beings and human suffering in particular.
Anticipating
Buber, he (Vyasa) saw history as the encounter of the temporal and the eternal,
the empirical and the transcendental; and anticipating Berdyaev, he saw in
history a divine programme for divinising human existence.
I
hero worshipped [Sri] Aurobindo in my college days; but now half a century
later, I am terribly disappointed. His discussion of
time and eternity is wholly derived from that of Boethius; page after page in [The]
Life Divine is watered down Plotinus. His vision of
History has the bookishness of Hegel’s tidy schema, Spirit fulfilling its
schedule of progress with no problem whatever. But
history is fatefully open ended, for man can abuse his freedom to become an
Asura and wreck himself too thereby. Man can regress to a cannibal, Bhima
drinking Duhsasana’s blood. Man may commit race-suicide, as nearly happened in
Kurukshetra where only 9 men survived out of 18 vast armies.
I
am afraid [Sri] Aurobindo’s inflated rhetoric does not see the terror and the
tears at the heart of things. I must confess your casual rating of Vyasa and
Berdyaev vis-a-vis [Sri] Aurobindo shocked me. [Krishna
Chaitanya (Dr. K.K. Nair)] 12:55 AM
