The program of teaching and research in psychology in modern India started in the early twentieth century. As one of its pioneers Professor Sinha (1922–1998) made a multidimensional endeavour to address the societal problems in a cultural context. On the occasion of Sinha's birth centenary, Psychological Studies presents its tribute to him by sharing the reflections of psychologists to the issues raised by Sinha on the integration of modern psychology with Indian thought published in 1965 in the Journal of Humanistic Psychology. The reflections of peers have important implications not only for academic studies but also for policy and everyday life. These reflections encompass a range of perspectives and issues. Here, we provide a brief overview of the contributions of Sinha to psychology and introduce the reflections. It is hoped that these ideas would encourage colleagues to consider cultural context in their own research and to join us in the task of creating culturally rooted relevant psychology.
