Philosophy

The history of the Sub-continent is replete with military incursions of different invaders; some of them eventually went back to their homeland while some settled down here permanently. One point regarding the determination of the lineage of philosophcial thought should be made clear. Although the intellectual environment of the Sub-continent was impregnated with various schools of Indian philosophy. The history of medieval and modern India is to a very considerable extent a history of Hindu-Muslim religio-cultural tensions interspersed with movements or individual efforts at understanding, harmony and even composite development.
