Hi, all,
This is hardly related to translation, but I couldn't think of a better source of information than you, Indian translators.
A very dear friend of mine is very interested in a master's degree in Hindu philosophy in India. Can you tell me some inside info, such as programs offered by universities, if any, or links to sites of interest?
Anything will do: links, addresses, universities, program details, etc.
Thank you so much to you all,
Dan

Some suggestions Oct 1, 2007

Hi Dan,

Please find below some links... I'm not sure about Hindu philosophy at Delhi University but it had a department of buddhist studies. Here's the link to the Arts Faculty:
http://www.du.ac.in/showdeptunderfaculties.html?faculty_id=ARTS
you can check it out.

But I think, you may find the Department of Sanskrit interesting:

Hi Dan,

But I think, you may find the Department of Sanskrit interesting:
http://www.du.ac.in/dept_course_details.html?department_id=Sanskrit&coursename=M.A.%20in%20Sanskrit&course_id=100

Alternatively, check out the BHU (Banaras Hindu University, Varanasi, India)
http://www.bhu.ac.in/svdv/departments.html

I hope this information is of some help.

Best regards,

Ritu Bhanot

P.S.: I think BHU link is more interesting for you. Especially the Vaidic Darshan part because vaidic Darshan (or Vedic Philosophy) is the basis of Hindu philosophy.

List of universities. Oct 2, 2007

Here is a link to Indian Universities that I took from Department of Higher Education, Government of India’s website:

Here is a link to Indian Universities that I took from Department of Higher Education, Government of India’s website:
http://education.nic.in/higedu.asp
You may enquire from a few universities/deemed universities about the course as I am not sure whether they offer M.A. in Hindu Philosophy exclusively or it is included among other philosophies under the subject. Whatever, they certainly will advise you a better way.

For reading and knowing about the subject informally, I am sure you would find many links if you do google search with the terms “Rishikesh” and “Haridwar”. These are famous Hindu pilgrimage centres where a lot of societies, saints, etc. are engaged in teaching about Hinduism.

Now, this one looks interesting. But the regulations are too strict:
