This article analyzes the anthropological ideas of Indian philosophy and
their modern interpretations. The study examines ancient Indian sources—such as the Vedas and Upanishads—as well as philosophical schools including Vedanta, Sankhya, Yoga, and Buddhism, focusing on their views on human nature. The paper explores the physical, psychological, and metaphysical structure of the human being, its connection with cosmic order, and the problem of self-realization. Furthermore, it highlights the compatibility of these ideas with modern psychology, existential philosophy, and neuroscience. The results of the study show that the anthropological concepts of Indian philosophy serve as an important theoretical foundation for understanding contemporary global issues such as psychological crises, ecological imbalance, and spiritual emptiness.
