I am a Lecturer at Oxford University and a Fellow of the Oxford Centre for Hindu Studies. I work on philosophy, religion and Indian thought.
At the moment I am particularly interested in Vedantic Arguments for complex monism, Yogic ideas of the Self as something we can explore and shape, and all ways of rethinking the Divine. Sometimes I think about these matters through Indian sourccs (especially Vedanta), and sometimes I think in terms of Western metaphysics and phenomenology.
And I love to travel...
The vase wherein time’s roots are plung’d, thou seest: Look elsewhere for the leaves...
Look then how lofty and how huge in breadth the’ eternal might, which, broken and dispers’d over such countless mirrors, yet remains whole in itself and one, as at the first.
Dante, Paradiso, canto 29.
You should recognize all this world as a bud that has come out. It cannot be without a root…
The existent, my son, is the root of all these creatures—the existent is their resting place, the existent is their foundation.
Chāndogya Upaniṣad 6.8.3-4
