February 1, 2012 Origins of Ancient Indian Philosophy

A lecturer, photographer, and author, Jim McConkey will explore how India’s remarkable world view came into being. He will trace its philosophical unfolding, beginning with its emergence from prehistoric fertility cults, to Bronze Age evidence for yoga in the time of Mohenjo Daro,
to Persian influence from the 1500 BC Aryan invasion,
to resurgence of original ideas as the Aryan invaders assimilated
into India’s golden age of enlightenment.
