- Drishtantoism
- a philosophy (of literature), that originated in India (Bangladesh) at the first decade of 21st century, which holds that literature must have logical basis. The philosophy is based on some eastern and western philosophical theories like lokayata (Charvaka), Buddhism, Hinduism, Islamism, Baulism, Existentialism, Pragmatism, Logical Positivism, Individualism etc. and on the literary and artistic theories like Surrealism, Dadaism, Imagism, Futurism, Symbolism etc. The philosophy advocates for the sighted or examined form of thing or for the nature of the thing capable of being experimented or seen. ‘Neither theist nor atheist, but religious’ and ‘be good only for saving yourself and the world’ are the notable two propositions of the philosophy. Especially the philosophy works as a guideline of ultra-modern Bengali poetry.
