Rajasthan in collaboration with Indian Institute of Technology Bombay & University of Mumbai is organizing an International Conference on "Science & Jain Philosophy" from 8-10 January, 2016 at Indian Institute of Technology Bombay Powai, Mumbai.
I have been informed that the main objective of the conference is to provide a forum to discuss scientific basis of teachings and thoughts of Jain religious thinkers and preachers. The main focus of the conference is to explore intersection of science and Jain traditions and philosophy. Almost 500-700 members including accomplished scientists, reputed academicians and philosophers from India and abroad will participate and share their views for a progressive, non-violent and a poverty-free society
