Logic and Religion Association Webinar, March 16, 2023, 4pm CET
Speaker: Benedikt Paul Göcke (Ruhr University Bochum, Germany)
Chair: Ricardo Silvestre (Federal University of Campina Grande, Brazil, President of LARA)
Abstract: Karl Christian Friedrich Krause (1781-1832) was one of the first European philosophers to appreciate, and draw upon, Indian philosophical and theological traditions. His panentheistic system of philosophy can be seen as a modern version of ancient Indian philosophical thought itself. In my lecture, Krause’s appreciation of the Indian traditions is spelled out in more detail before central features of his panentheism are clarified. Against this background, a brief Krausean interpretation of Krishna’s relation to the world as presented in the Bhagavad Gītā is provided.
