Daya Krishna (1924-2007) was one of the most creative, controversial and prolific thinkers of the 20th century. He worked intensely to undo the stereotypes commonly attributed to Indian philosophy, challenging the views that sought to reduce millennia of intellectual debate to merely religious, practical and spiritual parameters. A precursor of fusion philosophy and global philosophy, Daya Krishna belongs to that generation of 20th century Indian thinkers who undermined the foundations of epistemic provincialism, such as K.C. Bhattacharya or A.C. Mukerji, through writings in which they resort to multiple sources of knowledge to think about problems that challenge us in the present, questioning the very nature of philosophy. This essay aims to make their thought known to Spanish-speaking researchers, as well as to invite them to think with the thought of India, of any period and discipline, instead of approaching it with an «antiquarian» attitude that Daya Krishna himself refuted through his work.
