CONCEPTIONS OF ULTIMATE REALITY WITHIN VEDANTA TRADITIONS Speaker: Dilip Loundo<http://lattes.cnpq.br/8708626833608018> (Federal University of Juiz de Fora, Brazil) and Ricardo Silvestre<https://www.ricardo-silvestre.com/> (Federal University of Campina Grande, Brazil) Chair: Thiago Pelúcio (Federal University of Paraóba, Brazil) Please, register here<https://www.logicandreligion.com/webinars> to get a zoom link: https://www.logicandreligion.com/webinars Abstract: In this virtual roundtable, we will reflect on the conception of the Divine in the Vedānta traditions, with particular attention to two schools: Śaṅkara’s Advaita Vedānta (8th century) and Jīva Gosvāmin’s Bhedābheda Vedānta (16th century). Among the central questions that will guide the dialogue are the following: What is the relationship between the Divine, nature, and the human being? Which properties—if any—are attributed to the Divine? To what extent do these traditions recognize in it a dimension of personhood? And, finally, is the Divine one or many? Time zones: 8:00 am in New York; 10:00 pm in São Paulo; 2:00 pm in Paris; 3:00 pm in Jerusalem; and 6:30 pm in New Delhi. *Check the timeanddate.com<https://logicandreligion.com/so/tr/48d2a25c-f301-45cd-ac98-586fede4f698/c?w=aTDKK2t-8UJMRL8QI2arOe5rbOfzeGJyVxUzhloi9pU.eyJ1IjoiaHR0cHM6Ly90aW1lYW5kZGF0ZS5jb20vIiwiciI6IjYxNWNlNjlmLTM1YzItNGM2OS1jZmIyLWRlMjQ2NDY3Mjg0NCIsImMiOiIxYzY1NmM4Mi05YjA5LTRiNTAtYWU2Yy1kZDQ2NGFmMjJjNDAiLCJtIjoibWFpbCIsInJpIjoiMWM2NTZjODItOWIwOS00YjUwLWFlNmMtZGQ0NjRhZjIyYzQwIiwicnQiOiJDb250YWN0In0> to convert to your time zone.
