Course Description
The aim of this course is to introduce students to religious studies through examining some of the traditions that originated and flourished in Asia and are practiced by people throughout the world today. Using an approach that is both critical and empathetic, students will explore the fundamental structures of belief, meaning, and practice that constitute the traditions of Hinduism and Buddhism, the diversity within each of these traditions, and their multiple manifestations throughout the world. In doing so, students will also explore their own essential questions of meaning in dialogue with these traditions. Texts include The Bhagavad-Gita and The Dhammapada.
