Prominent educators on our team consult with filmmakers and cultural specialists in the development of curriculum guides, each one dedicated to an in-depth exploration of the culture and issues depicted in a specific film. The guides merge effectively into teachers’ existing lesson plans and mandated curricular requirements, providing teachers with an innovative way to fulfill their school districts’ standards-based goals. 6 Journeys in Film : The Story of God In addition to our ongoing development of teaching guides for culturally sensitive foreign films, Journeys in Film brings outstanding documentary films to the classroom. Working in partnership with the Rossier School of Education at the University of Southern California, Journeys in Film has identified exceptional narrative and documentary films that teach about a broad range of social issues in real-life settings such as famine-stricken and war-torn Somalia, a maximum- security prison in Alabama, and a World War II concentration camp near Prague. Journeys in Film curriculum guides help teachers integrate these films into their classrooms, examining complex issues, encouraging students to be active rather than passive viewers, and maximizing the power of film to enhance critical thinking skills and to meet the Common Core standards. Journeys in Film is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization.

  • Atman/Anatman in Buddhism
    Åtman/Anåtman in Buddhism and Its Implication for the Wisdom Tradition by Nancy Reigle Does Christianity believe in reincarnation? Of course it does not. Yet, students of the Wisdom Tradition may seek to find evidence that early Christians did accept reincarnation. Similarly in Buddhism. Does Buddhism believe in the åtman, the permanent self? Certainly the Buddhist religion does not. Yet, there is evidence that the Buddha when teaching his basic doctrine of anåtman, no-self, only denied the abiding reality of the personal or empirical åtman, but not the universal or authentic åtman. The Wisdom Tradition known as Theosophy teaches the existence of “An Omnipresent, Eternal, Boundless, and Immu- table PRINCIPLE,” 1 often compared to the Hindu åtman, the universal “self,” while Buddhism with its doctrine of anåtman, “no-self,” is normally understood to deny any such universal principle. In regard to Buddhism, however, there have been several attempts to show that the Buddha did not deny the exist- ence of the authentic åtman, the self.2 Only one of these attempts seems to have been taken seriously by scholars3; namely, the work of Kamaleswar Bhattacharya. His book on this subject, written in French, L’Åtman-Brahman dans le Bouddhisme ancien, was published in Paris in 1973; and an English translation of this work, The Åtman-Brahman in Ancient Buddhism, was published in 2015.4 It is here that he set forth his arguments for the existence of the Upanißadic åtman in early Buddhism. This is the work that we will discuss. How must we understand

  • January 2018 Gallery Exhibit: HOPE Houston Artist and Long-Time WAS-H Friend and Instructor Ellen Orseck Judged the January Monthly Exhibit
    Watercolor Art Society - Houston | Washrag Newsletter | February 2018 1 February 2018 January 2018 Gallery Exhibit: HOPE Houston artist and long-time WAS-H friend and instructor Ellen Orseck judged the January Monthly Exhibit. Her prevailing comment on all the work was that each piece, in its own way, spoke to the much needed quality of HOPE in our world today. The winners are: 1st Place - Christine Bunger “See the Light” 2nd Place - Lynda Jung “No Time Is the Right Time” 3rd Place - Fred Kingwill “The Future—Robin’s Eggs” Honorable Mentions awarded to: Sana Shaw “Awakening of the Star” Richard Scruggs “El Camino Pilgrims” Robin Beckwith “Fragments of Imagined Spring” Liz Hill “Leopard Hat” Each of the first three winners draws the viewer into the center of the painting and beyond! Chris Bunger’s stunning copse of tall trees reaching for the sky and light draws us out of the current darkness of the world to a spiritual point of light and hope and life. Lynda Jung’s 1st place - Christine Bunger “See the Light” reflection on time stretches us to think of time past, present and future, within the clock-like piece she places organic and non-organic elements of life. Fred Kingwill’s small piece uses the circular, womb-like nature of the nest holding the promise of new life to strengthen our hope in the future. Ellen also found it interesting that each of these pieces effectively broke the traditional rule of not centering the focal point on the page. It is the quality of BEYONDNESS and HOPE IN THE FUTURE in each of the pieces that makes the break 2nd place - Lynda Jung “No Time Is the 3rd place - Fred Kingwell “The Future— successful!

  • Proposal to Encode Symbols of Jainism in Unicode
    L2/15-097 2015-03-19 Proposal to Encode Symbols of Jainism in Unicode Anshuman Pandey Department of Linguistics University of Californa, Berkeley Berkeley, California, U.S.A. [email protected] March 19, 2015 1 Introduction This is a proposal to encode four symbols in Unicode that are associated with Jainism. The characters are proposed for inclusion in the block ‘Miscellaneous Symbols and Pictographs’ (U+1F300). Basic details of the characters are as follows (the actual code points will be assigned if the proposal is approved): glyph code point character name U+1F9xx JAIN SVASTIKA U+1F9xx JAIN HAND U+1F9xx JAIN EMBLEM U+1F9xx JAIN EMBLEM WITH OM 1 Proposal to Encode Symbols of Jainism in Unicode Anshuman Pandey The symbol that appears in the is the Jain depiction of the Hindu symbol ॐ ‘om’ and is an important symbol in the iconography of Jainism. The symbol was proposed for encoding in the ‘Devanagari Extended’ block in 2013 as the character +A8FD (see Pandey 2013). It was accepted for inclusion in the standard and will be published in Unicode 8.0. 2 Background In the proposal “Emoji Additions” (L2/14-174), authored by Mark Davis and Peter Edberg, five ‘religious symbols and structures’ among symbols of other categories were proposed for inclusion as part of the Emoji collection in Unicode. Shervin Afshar and Roozbeh Pournader proposed related symbols in “Emoji and Symbol Additions – Religious Symbols and Structures” (L2/14-235). These characters were approved for inclusion in the standard by the UTC in January 2015. Davis and Edberg made a brief reference to Jain symbols, but did not identify any as candidates for encoding.

Working from a richly layered script, which crosscuts between characters who are facing real truths and the documentary crew who are filming them, Shalhoub spins a mordantly comic tale. When Elizabeth (Brooke Adams) gave up her acting career to become a wife and mother, it was a liberating choice. She let her hair go gray, stopped worrying about every extra pound, and laughed when her teenage daughter Sara (Eva Amurri) nagged her about her appearance. But now that her husband Duncan (Gary Sinise) has left her for a much younger woman (played by Light Eternity), her daughter’s desperation to give her an overhaul starts to resonate.

  • Shedding Light on the Modalities of Authority in a Dar Al-Uloom, Or Religious Seminary, in Britain
    religions Article Shedding Light on the Modalities of Authority in a Dar al-Uloom, or Religious Seminary, in Britain Haroon Sidat Centre for the Study of Islam in the UK, School of History, Archaeology and Religion, Cardiff University, Cardiff CF10 3EU, UK; Sidathe@cardiff.ac.uk Received: 25 July 2019; Accepted: 26 November 2019; Published: 29 November 2019 Abstract: ‘God is the Light of the heavens and the earth ::: ’ (Quran, 24:35.) This article sheds light on the modalities of authority that exist in a traditional religious seminary or Dar al-Uloom (hereon abbreviated to DU) in modern Britain. Based on unprecedented insider access and detailed ethnography, the paper considers how two groups of teachers, the senior and the younger generation, acquire and shine their authoritative light in unique ways. The article asserts that within the senior teachers an elect group of ‘luminaries’ exemplify a deep level of learning combined with practice and embodiment, while the remaining teachers are granted authority by virtue of the Prophetic light, or Hadith, they radiate. The younger generation of British-born teachers, however, are the torchbearers at the leading edge of directing the DU. While it may take time for them to acquire the social and symbolic capital of the senior teachers, operationally, they are the ones illuminating the way forward. The paper discusses the implications of the changing nature of authority within the DU is likely to have for Muslims in Britain. Keywords: Dar al-Uloom; Islam in Britain; Deoband; ulama; tradition; authority 1. Introduction During research undertaken for my PhD thesis, authority emerged as a significant analytical category and became one of the lenses through which I examined the Dar al-Uloom (DU).1 Its relationship with the Islamic tradition, that of being anchored in an authentic past, results in intense competition among British Muslims who vie to present themselves as heirs of an authentic interpretation and practice of Islam (Gilliat-Ray 2010).
