dbo:abstract
  • Viswamaanava is a Hindu cultural ideology. Viswa means universal and maanava means human. This ideology is inherent in all Indian scriptures, culture, and traditions. It is extensively discussed and partially practised in Advaita Vedanta traditions. Many great intellectuals lived by this principle and contributed to the welfare of the underprivileged sections of society. “Vishwa Manava’ was the idea espoused by Kuvempu which he explains in an essay: “Every child, at birth, is the universal man. But, as it grows, we turn it into a ‘petty man’ (through caste, creed, religion and race). It should be the function of education to turn it into the original ‘universal man’.” (en)
