(Who have Practical Philosophy West or East ?)

Nowadays, almost every western philosophers are inventing  new philosophical theories what they like to name "Practical Philosophy". I would like to call these new theories "New slaves of science" with philosophical soul.  

It is very difficult to understand real nature, inner meanings and goals of philosophies but still it is too popular every societies of world. Does philosophies really have practical uses for present life? Answer is not easy.

Human is human not a machine.  The westerners are trying to convert  humanity into machine. Becoming more and more machine is not a philosophy. Faiths, believes, and diversities of ideology is human nature. Every ideal practice is way of life or philosophy of wisdom.

Aryan-Philosophy is only philosophy with  practical forum and is full of various religions, faiths, sect and ideal diversities. You can lively  practice each philosophy being a humble follower/part of particular sect.

So, western practical Philosophy is just speculative and supposal to be useful in practical life but Aryan-philosophies/religious/sects are essentially practical what have certain goals to achieves within this life or even, coming life !!!    

Philosophy is  like a lamp which produces unlimited  light of wisdom to change

the world

Philosophy of East

 Enlightenment (Buddha)

Nepali Philosophy

All Aryan-Philosophies are practical philosophies because almost each of them have living practical part of their ideologies.  If you are really want to learn  Aryan-Philosophy, you need to be enter part of their lifestyles and so on. This is an humble attempts to teach philosophies with modeling and letting learners direct to concern places and personals. 

Presently, we are trying to deal with following topics:

Shankara    Theories            demonstration    practice             10 days             45 minutes daily

Ramanuja    Theories            demonstration    practice             10 days             45 minutes daily

Nimbarka    Theories            demonstration    practice             10 days             45 minutes daily

Madva         Theories            demonstration    practice             10 days             45 minutes daily

Chaitnnya    Theories            demonstration    practice             10 days             45 minutes daily

Ballavha      Theories            demonstration    practice             10 days             45 minutes daily

Buddhism    Theories            demonstration    practice             10 days             45 minutes daily.

Jainism       Theories            demonstration    practice             10 days             45 minutes daily

Yoga           Theories            demonstration    practice             30 days             45 minutes daily

Meditation    Theories            demonstration    practice             30 days             45 minutes daily

Jainism       Theories            demonstration    practice             10 days             45 minutes daily

All mentioned courses are very interesting.  After attending these courses, the participants will certainly feel extra and will realize the uniqueness that  the philosophy is neither mental speculation nor only the study of history of philosophy but these are full of facts and experiments. Without being individually involved into practices, nobody can realize the facts of these philosophies.

@Philosophical Counseling

The Institute also conducts philosophical counseling-programs for better understanding livelihood problems specially, moral dilemma and old age trauma or spiritual counseling for senior citizen.   Philosophical counseling is being practiced by western philosophers since 1982 when a German philosopher had established a formal Institute called: The Society for philosophical counseling and practice'' to practice professionally in philosophy; later converted into “The International Society for Philosophical Practice". Today, it is the umbrella organization for various national societies around the world..

Philosophical life counseling in a philosopher's practice nowadays has become an alternative to the psychotherapies. It is an institution for people who are suffering from sorrows or unidentified mental problems, who can't cope with their lives or who think they somehow " got struck", who have questions they can neither solve nor get rid of, who get along in the prose of their everyday lives but have vague feeling of not really being challenged – for instance if they realize that their actualities don't meet their possibilities. In philosophical practice, people show up who don't just want to live or to get through but rather want to give account of their lives and who want transparency about their life – style.  In short: they visit a Philosophical practice in order to understand and to be understood.( Reference by Joachim Ritter-1989)     

Now, it is being practiced very popularly in developed countries and universities are offering highest degrees in practical philosophy or philosophical counseling and thousands of students are getting degrees.

Philosophical counseling is not brand new concept to Nepalese people because such practices are being  since thousand year here. The Upanishads have the seeds of such counseling when Guru and pupil  seats together and quarries about life, spiritual and other practical problems of livelihood.  In Nepal and India, the philosophical counseling being practice as preaching model. For example: If some one dies into family and family members falls  trauma of death then they organize Garuda-puran, Bhagvatam and other spiritual preaching programs . According to situation, they have deferent styles and methods to address particular problems in life.

The Western philosopher gave it new life to address problems what where properly not possible to psychologist . A philosophical counselor can deals with following life-problems:

• Interpersonal relationship                                   

• Mid life crisis

• Old-age disappointments

• Job-related issues

• Depressions and losing of meaning of life

• Divorce

• Ethical or Moral problems

• Living authenticity

• Discovering personal path

• Spiritual developments

• Rational problems between individual and societies.

• Freedom and personality

• Feeling, judgment and personality exploration

• Generation to generation

• School- life problems

A skillful philosophical counselor does not handle mental problem; what is relevant to psychological counselor. A Philosophical counselor does not treat his/her clients as a patient but deals as a friend and  equal level. In word of James Bugental: "The only change agency which produces listings in a change in person's perception is her/his self word''
