Abstract

K.C Bhattacharya is a very critical contemporary Indian profound thinker, which is reflected in his thought and expression of his original mind. He applied Constructive Interpretation method in his philosophy. The concept of Subject as freedom occupies an important place in his philosophy. Subject is an entity but not a mean entity like object, is known itself as ‘I’ without being mean by ‘I’ indicate the depth of the subject. When the speaker expresses itself in ‘I’, it indicates freedom of the subject as its dissociates from the object. Like the other traditional Indian philosophers, K. C. Bhattacharya also takes Freedom in the sense of ‘Freedom from’. In this state of freedom self is free from all objective and subjective states. In this state only self’s self-identity is intuited. This intuited self-identity is self-evident. This is the realization of the absolute self and the freedom. Thus, K. C. Bhattacharya advocates absolute freedom. It implies that his conception of freedom is completely idealistic. His conception of freedom can be realized and felt but its explanation is a bit tricky and complicated.
