TATTVAS

तत्त्व - "That-ness" • Principles of Reality

A comprehensive digital humanities project bridging ancient Indian philosophical frameworks with contemporary analytical methods, featuring comparative studies across traditions and interactive visualizations that reveal the sophisticated metaphysical architectures underlying spiritual liberation.

10+ Traditions • 36+ Principles • ∞ Explorations

Ancient Wisdom Through Modern Lenses

This project systematically explores how different Indian philosophical traditions—from analytical schools like Kashmir Śaivism, Sāṅkhya, Yoga, and Buddhism to devotional traditions like Viśiṣṭādvaita, Dvaita, Acintya-bhedābheda, and Vīraśaivism—employ their respective frameworks to achieve spiritual liberation. Through comparative studies, interactive visualizations, and rigorous source analysis, we demonstrate how these ancient systems provide sophisticated maps for understanding consciousness, reality, and the complementary paths of knowledge and devotion from limitation to freedom.
