Today ‘Emotional Intelligence’ has become a popular field of research. This paper compares and contracts the cross cultural philosophies with cognition in today’s digital world Artificial Intelligence. In this paper we discuss about what Indian philosophy has to say about human beings and their emotion which is completely different from what is believed to be the right thing in today’s psychology. That is because beliefs change with time. The belief of our ancestors is not what we believe today. And with these changing times if we have to build a machine with human intelligence that can understand emotions then it is a challenge. This makes the study quite interesting.
