  Epistemology - The Theory of...

  Epistemology, the theory of knowledge, explores the nature, scope, and limits of human understanding. It is concerned with questions such as "What is knowledge?" "How do we acquire it?" and "What can we truly know?" While these questions may seem straightforward, they are deeply complex and have fascinated philosophers for centuries. The study of epistemology is central to philosophy because it examines the very foundation upon which all other knowledge rests. 
  At its core, epistemology is concerned with defining what it means to "know" something. Historically, philosophers have often defined knowledge as "justified true belief." This classic view holds that for someone to know a proposition, it must be true, they must believe it, and they must have sufficient justification for that belief. However, challenges to this definition have led to new theories about knowledge, suggesting that there may be more to understanding than simply having belief grounded in truth. 
  The importance of epistemology extends beyond abstract theory. In daily life, we rely on knowledge to make decisions, solve problems, and navigate our understanding of the world. Whether it is scientific research, moral reasoning, or even personal belief systems, the way we define and assess knowledge influences how we engage with reality. Epistemological questions therefore shape not only philosophical discussions but also practical outcomes in various fields such as education, science, and politics.

  This book “देवताओं का मौन (The Gods have gone silent)” is a philosophical journey into the very living heart of non-dual Vedanta. 
  Today our modern existence rests on the loss and disappearance of the fact-value distinction that embody science and technological development at the expense of what it means to be a living being. It traces the essence of Vedanta through the streets and crossings of modern India and engages with extraordinary living masters in trying to answer some of our most pressing spiritual questions such as:What is this dwelling and who is this dweller.How is the dweller to chalk his way to his being?Who are the modern Rishis and how are we to become one?If Truth cannot be acquired or learnt, then how can it be transmitted. 
  How do we know it, If it is the indescribable, undefinable, unutterable, unspeakable, incommunicable, ineffable; beyond words, beyond description, then by what and in what are we to seek its body.

  Many people are aware of the injustices Black Americans have suffered over the centuries but feel powerless when it comes to repairing the harm done. 
   
   
   
  The inequality remains even after laws and policies have been corrected. Calculating and implementing financial reparations will require large-scale government action, which can feel out of reach or overwhelming for the average person. Robert Turner provides an accessible guide for individuals and groups wanting to influence significant institutional action while also acting on their own to repair the effects of racial injustice in our communities, churches, and spheres of influence. Dividing into categories of individual, social, institutional, and spiritual repair, Turner offers the longest list of reparations currently published, with more than one hundred actions listeners can begin practicing and advocating for to help balance economic injustice, undo hurtful decisions from decades past, and rally public support for bold and principled legislation.
