NEWS

“Religion is not an experiment, it is an experience of life
through which one is part of the cosmic adventure”

Upcoming publications in English

Motilal Banarsidass , Delhi, will soon publish Aphorisms by Panikkar

In addition to the Opera Omnia and to his diaries which he faithfully kept almost throughout his entire lifetime, from 1929 to 2009, Panikkar was accustomed to writing short notes on what he referred to as his ‘cards’. These are actual aphorisms, written on subjects ranging from philosophy to meditation, from art to freedom of thought, from mysticism as a human dimension to provocation aimed at those who separate doctrine from life.

Upcoming publications in Italian

To mark the jubilee, Jaca Book will publish The Tragedy of the Grand Inquisitor, a short but powerful story that Panikkae wrote in 2000 as a continuation of Dostoevsky’s legend and as a reflection of criticism and hope.
