I like 'dojo' too. But considering that I'd heard the word for the first time on LW, I'll probably need to find some equivalent Indian word - and I'll have to think some two or three differnt words for people from different parts of the country (speaking different languages). Well, that itself is an interesting exercise. :)
'Ashram' leaps immediately to mind, but that's probably mostly wrong.
I thought of 'Gurukul', but that gives the sense of a much more intense involvement with the 'club' than we want ppl to think. 'Kalari' works for Malayalam and a lot of south Indians, esp those familiar with Kalarippayattu and means exactly the same thing as dojo. But "Kalari for Rationality" sounds really ugly.
For Hindi, I donno.. Pathshaala? Too pompous. Sangham? :)
And the trouble with Rationalists Association etc are there already are organizations called that and they immediately evoke thoughts of 'atheism', 'anti-godmen' etc.
