- Description
- This chapter appropriates the insights of the German philosopher Edmund Hausserl (1859-1938) to examine the nature of Indian culture. Husserl is well known as the founder of the phenomenological method of enquiry. This method enables us to describe our experience in a new way, and thus it allows us to access novel insights. Phenomenology is the sustained attempt to describe our human experiences - such as those that we identify as relevant to Indian culture - without metaphysical and theoretical speculations. To comprehend the method it is necessary to appreciate Husserl's night into the nature of human understanding and the way the presuppositions enter into out everyday understanding of that which we encounter.
