Vyakarana â IV: Discovering the Universal Philosophy of Language - HUA

PÄá¹ini’s Aá¹£á¹ÄdhyÄyÄ« is a monumental work in the sÅ«tra format (short aphorisms) that establishes the grammar of ancient Sanskrit as a language. At the same time, the text also presents a general model for language description, that goes beyond Sanskrit as a specific language instance. This is the fourth course in a sequence of four courses on VyÄkaraá¹a (grammar) based on PÄá¹ini’s Aá¹£á¹ÄdhyÄyÄ«.
The formalism of grammar developed by PÄá¹ini has its foundation in the philosophy of language in the Indian tradition elucidated by VyÄá¸i. After PÄá¹ini, Bhartá¹hari explained this comprehensively in his compendium named VÄkyapadÄ«ya, which elucidates the universal philosophy of language, and is considered as a pathway to liberation in the VyÄkaraá¹a tradition. Vyakarana – IV Course content: The course introduces the tradition of the philosophy of Vyakarana while providing comparisons with other schools of Indian thought. It also provides an overview of Vakyapadiya along with a selection of sections pertaining to the central themes of the philosophy of Vyakarana.
In this course, students will be able to: Understand the philosophy of language that provided the concept of apoddhara (dissection and abstraction) based on which Panini formulated his Astadhyayi. Understand the engagement with language and grammar as a spiritual process.
