Causal Structures, Consciousness and the Pratyabhijna

The major intent is to focus on the fundamental discussions pertaining to philosophical and psychological questions raised by the thinkers of Kashmir Saivism and attempt the contextualising of Information theory, consciousness studies and artificial intelligence, from the view point of analysing causal structures of thought, experiences and entities. The study is the first comparative attempt to juxtapose emotions, aesthetic process, memory, cognitive structures and the self in the context of understanding consciousness in Indian philosophy.
