To promote interdisciplinary academic engagement with Indian philosophical traditions and their relevance to workplace ethics, the Centre of Central Asian Studies (CCAS), University of Kashmir (KU), on Wednesday started a Study Circle Lecture Series titled “Workplace Spirituality with Insights from Indian Philosophy and its Empirical Validation in Indian Context” at the main campus.
Sponsored by the Indian Council of Philosophical Research (ICPR), New Delhi, the series will feature 12 lectures per month on various topics.
Speaking at the inaugural session, Vice-Chancellor KU, Prof. Nilofer Khan, said, “This initiative is a meaningful attempt to contextualise Indian philosophical wisdom in today’s professional and institutional settings. It will help nurture value-based education and ethical sensitivity among learners and educators alike.”
Prof. Khan also inaugurated the Digital Archaeology Lab at the CCAS that is envisioned as a resource hub for digital archiving, heritage preservation, and archaeological research.
