Abstract

Pragmatism invites us to cultivate new relationship between practice and consciousness, practice and spirituality, freedom and solidarity. This book explores different dimensions of pragmatism, spirituality, consciousness, freedom and solidarity. This introduction to the volume describes different chapters in the volume and explores their ways of relating to pragmatism, consciousness, spirituality and freedom. It also discusses Sri Aurobindo’s reflections on mentalistic pragmatism and how it needs to be related to wider and deeper consciousness works and meditations.
