In this Course, Students will gain an understanding of the method of teaching deployed by the Upanishads, using the Uddalaka – Svetaketu dialogue as an example. Upanishadic Dialogues I – The Chandogya Upanishad course will unfold the main content of the Dialogue between Uddalaka and Svetaketu, enable the students to analyze the experiments presented in that dialogue, and demonstrate an understanding of their application. Students will be invited to discuss the learning from the dialogue and the applicability of the concepts for Spiritual Advancement and Global Wellbeing.
How do we make the goals of spiritual advancement and global wellbeing compatible with the contemporary world of competition, exploitation of nature, attendant stress, and the struggle to survive or achieve dominance and power? Through this course, students will be led gradually towards an appreciation of the profundity and significance of the ideas in the Upanishads, and their contemporary relevance.
There will be a minimum of 1 contact hour with one or more faculty every week. The class is structured in a way that promotes discussion and debate based on self-study and reflection each week. While the content being discussed in each class will be concluded within 60 minutes, the discussion time will be free format, and can continue for an additional 30 minutes maximum. During the course, students will be required to make a presentation to the class.
