About This Course
Most Westerners do not realize that several religions originated in India in addition to Hinduism: Buddhism, Jainism and the Sikh tradition. In this course, we discuss how so many religions born from the same place interact with each other. We also look at how they have dealt with the introduction of the three major Western religions: Islam, Judaism and Christianity. This course uses the Hybrid format which allows students to participate remotely and/or in the classroom. This course will be recorded. Students will have access to videos for the duration of the course.
