This course develops a Religious Studies perspective on religions. Major Eastern religious traditions (including but not limited to Hinduism, Buddhism, Confucianism, Daoism) will be explored in their historical, systematic, and practical/ritual dimensions. The course will deal with major and minor religious traditions of the east employing a syncretistic methodology. The basic principles, concepts, practices, and beliefs of those traditions will be examined from a religious studies perspective.
