If anyone's looking for a good accessible resource on Indian philosophy, I can recommend the "History of Philosophy in India" (now called the "History of Indian and Africana Philosophy") podcast. [URL][Feed]

It covers a few different schools of Hindu, Buddhist, and Jain philosophy, in a way that a novice like me could follow. (The Indian philosophy part ended in 2018, with 62 episodes, and the African philosophy part seems to be still ongoing at 101 episodes.)

The podcast was very listenable/entertaining, and they have a book based on it: https://www.amazon.com/dp/019285674X ISBN 019285674X

Other books by Jonardon Ganeri seem to be good too. And here's an insightful interview of his (about Hinduism, not particularly philosophy) on the NYT website: https://opinionator.blogs.nytimes.com/2014/08/03/what-would-...
