Explore the world’s major religious traditions through a structured, text-anchored, and historical lens. Over 52 weeks (208 lectures), this flagship course offers a comparative study across nine traditions—Hinduism, Buddhism, Taoism, Zoroastrianism, Confucianism, Sikhism, Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. Students engage directly with primary scriptures and canonical texts to examine fundamental themes, including concepts of God, sacred law, ethics, mysticism, schisms, and eschatology across both Eastern and Abrahamic faiths. Course Format: 4 lectures per week featuring conceptual themes, religion-specific analyses, and direct primary source comparative readings.
Direct Engagement with Source Texts: Rather than relying on summaries or second-hand interpretations, students read primary sacred scriptures and canonical texts directly (including the Upanishads, Tripitaka, Tao Te Ching, Torah, Bible, and Qur'an). This builds rigorous textual analysis and critical reading skills.
Comprehensive Global Perspective: The course covers nine major Eastern and Abrahamic traditions, giving students a balanced, global understanding of how different cultures address life's biggest questions—such as morality, authority, human nature, and the ultimate reality.
Structural & Thematic Insight: By comparing religions side-by-side using a structured four-lecture weekly model, students learn to identify deep thematic connections, points of convergence, and distinct differences across traditions rather than viewing them in isolation.
Cultural & Historical Literacy: Understanding the history, schisms, and modern evolution of these belief systems equips students with the historical context needed to navigate global affairs, modern societal debates, and diverse multicultural environments.
Nuanced Critical Thinking: Examining complex concepts like law, ethics, mysticism, and eschatology through multiple philosophical frameworks helps students develop nuanced, objective thinking while reducing bias and surface-level assumptions.
