“We at Mīmāṁsā firmly believe that studying socio-political, religio-spiritual and historical realities of India needs a specific Indian lens which incorporates contextual, cultural and geographical specificities of the sub-continent. Post-independence, academia in India exhibited a control of a particular kind of group which attempted to conform ‘Indic studies’ to a particular ideological and methodological outlook. Arguably, this approach was borrowed from outside and ignoring the traditional Indian knowledge system, was juxtaposed to Indian realities, often leading to inaccurate understanding of India. We at Mīmāṁsā strive to bring to the fore the authentic, well-researched and objective alternative which is firmly based on Indic Value System to provide a credible narrative for a substantive discourse.”
