Wisdom of World Religions - Hinduism: The Gita

     

Hinduism is not “a religion”, but many religions rooted in some big ideas. This class will survey those big ideas as we explore that ancient world view which has evolved over many centuries in India. The key words are desire (kama), karma, dharma, reincarnation, samsara, moksha and nirvana. Bring your desires and join us for this fascinating survey of Hinduism!
