Institution:

Hiram College

Subject:

Description:

This course examines selected Asian religious traditions, such as Hinduism, Buddhism, Chinese Religions, and Japanese Religions. Each tradition studied will be investigated both historically and analytically. One goal will be to discern fundamental aspects of each tradition's theoretical, practical-experiential, and social expressions. We will also place each tradition in a comparative context, considering themes such as cosmology and cosmogony, religious transformation, concepts of non-duality, and otherworldly journeys.
