Event Description : 'Indian Art : History & Appreciation' an intensive course by eminent art historian Benoy K Behl. 
The aesthetic experience is considered to be of great value in Indian thought. Our experience of beauty when we respond to a sunrise or to a great work of art is a moment when we perceive the grace which underlies the whole of creation. In that moment, the veils of illusion of the material nature of the world are lifted and we see beyond… This moment of the aesthetic experience is stated in Indian thought to be “akin to Brahmananda”, or the final ecstasy of salvation itself. 

Sculpture and painting have played a most important part in the life of the Indian subcontinent. The Chitrasutra states that art is the greatest treasure of mankind, far more valuable than gold or jewels. Art is used in Indic philosophies, to help us transcend our material existence and to take us on a path to be one with the harmony of creation. 

The sublime art of ancient India enshrines a vision of life which is filled with a deep sense of values and compassion. For your information, a notice of a course which I will be giving for Bharatiya Vidya Bhavan is attached. The course will be held at the Munshi Memorial Hall, Bharatiya Vidya Bhavan, New Delhi on Saturday the 10th and Sunday the 11th of August. I thought you may like to know about this. It would also be wonderful to have you with us at the course.
