REL 132 - God and Goddess in Hinduism


FDR: HU
Credits: 3

This course explores the many ways in which Hindus visualize and talk about the divine and its manifestations in the world through mythic stories, use of images in worship, explanations of the nature of the soul and body in relation to the divine, and the belief in human embodiments of the divine in Hindu holy men and women. Topics include: the religious meanings of masculine and feminine in the divine and human contexts; the idea of local, family, and “chosen” divinities; and differing forms of Hindu devotion for men and women.
