Professor Deepak Sarma reflects on their “Introduction to Indian Philosophy” course

Recently, Dr. Sarma wrote an article for The Blog of the American Philosophical Association (APA), “Epistemic Doubt: A dream we dreamed one afternoon long ago”, reflecting on their long-standing passion for teaching Introduction to Indian Philosophy, which they have taught every year since 2004. Within the article, Dr. Sarma relays the personal journey and philosophical skepticism that led to their particular style in teaching the course which blends traditional methods with immersive experiences at the Cleveland Museum of Art, challenges epistemic foundations, and encourages students to question their deepest assumptions.
