Cl assical Indian philosophers found the answer in theater\, arguing that it’ s not just a form of entertainment\, but a source of knowledge of other mi nds. In this talk\, I’ll explore how this theme is developed in Śrī Śaṅkuk a (c. 850 CE) and examine the reasons his views were rejected in the later tradition. I’ll argue that those reasons are unsound\, and that we can se e why by turning to contemporary studies of the relationship between knowl edge and luck.
