Aunque conceptos como yoga, karma o reencarnación han entrado en el discurso occidental, han sido apropiados con una tendencia a promover nociones predeterminadas del sí mismo y no a representar algo propiamente hindú. Por esta razón tales discursos reflejan más bien formas de pensamiento occidental. Este artículo analiza el concepto de “sí mismo” como ha sido desarrollado en textos sánscritos primitivos, incluyendo el Sâmkhyakârika y los escritos del pensador del vedânta OEankara, para mostrar que las nociones occidentales del sí mismo presentan un marco por completo inadecuado para interpretar el sí mismo hindú.PDFapplication/pdfspaEditorial Pontificia Universidad Javerianahttp://revistas.javeriana.edu.co/index.php/teoxaveriana/article/view/13245/10558Theologica Xaveriana; Núm. 162 (2007): Theologica XaverianaIs There 'Self' Identity in Sâmkhya and OEankara?Is There ‘Self’ Identity in Sâmkhyahttp://purl.org/coar/version/c_970fb48d4fbd8a85Artículo de revistahttp://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_6501http://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_2df8fbb1info:eu-repo/semantics/articleArtículo revisado por pares10554/27995oai:repository.javeriana.edu.co:10554/279952023-03-29 14:06:00.497Repositorio Institucional - Pontificia Universidad Javerianarepositorio@javeriana.edu.co |

hile underdeveloped as an academic field, Indian philosophical language has permeated Western imagination. However, as concepts such as yoga, karma, or reincarnation enter Western discourse, they tend to be appropriated in a manner that bolsters pre-determined notions of selfhood rather than representing anything “Indian”. Thus, these discourses often reveal more about Western ways of thinking. This paper analyzes the concept of ‘self’ as developed within early Sanskrit texts, including the Sâmkhyakârika and the writings of Vedântin thinker Úankara, to argue that Western notions of selfhood present an entirely inadequate frame through which to interpret “Indian” self-identity. |
