  • SEMESTER at SEA COURSE SYLLABUS University of Virginia, Academic Sponsor
    SEMESTER AT SEA COURSE SYLLABUS University of Virginia, Academic Sponsor Voyage: Spring 2016 Discipline: Religious Studies RELG 1005-101: World Religions Division: Lower Faculty Name: Patrick T. McCormick Credit Hours: 3; Contact Hours: 38 Pre-requisites: None COURSE DESCRIPTION This course is an introduction to the world’s major religions, particularly the influential religious traditions in the countries we will visit in Asia and Africa. To live and work in a global village where we interact with people and communities from different religious traditions we need to understand and appreciate these neighbors’ religious worldviews. In this course we will examine and compare the beliefs, texts, figures, rituals, and shrines of the world’s most practiced religions and explore how these traditions answer life’s “big questions” (the meaning of existence, what happens after death, how life ought to be lived, etc.) and how they help their members to negotiate life’s crises and passages, and how they have functioned internally, and in relation to those outside them, as means for unity, division, solace and/or exploitation. COURSE OBJECTIVES Upon completion of this course, students will be able to: • Demonstrate familiarity with the basic beliefs, practices, texts, and rituals of the major religious traditions, especially the dominant traditions in the Asian and African nations we visit. • Compare and contrast the basic beliefs, practices, texts, and rituals of the major religious traditions we study in this course. • Analyze the basic principles of interfaith dialogue, instances of religious conflict, and processes and consequences of religion’s being imposed or adopted • Demonstrate understanding of how religion has been viewed and critiqued as a resource for building more peaceful and just societies.

    BUDDHA DHYÃNA DANA REVIEW ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Volume 1 No. 3 Registered by Australia Post Publication No. VAR 3103. Sept 1991 Please refer Graphical Image No: V1N3.1.1 B.D.C.(U) Ltd Dhamma Chakra Logo & Woodblock print of Long Life Endless Knot EDITORIAL Towards the preservation of the Sangha With the Rainy Season upon us again, we are delighted a Venerable Mahathero Bhikkhu has agreed to accept our Directors' invitation to reside at this Centre for this time. Such events depend on prior causes. This Australian born Editor is well content to be living in a Centre where good causes arise within the hearts of Members. These Members labour to sustain the necessary infrastructure conditions at this place to make it a suitable location for the Sangha to develop their Buddhist Practice during the Rainy Season. With the approach of the year 2000 C.E., it is sobering to consider the changes that have occurred and are occurring this century in the faring of the Sangha's position in many other Countries. When the overall world situation is reviewed over the last century there are many apparent gains. One great gain is the availability of Buddhist texts in many languages. As the Venerable Bhikkhu Nanamoli noted, the Jesuit missionary, Filippo Desideri, brought back a long and accurate account both of the Buddha's life and his doctrine from Tibet in the first quarter of the l8th. century: it remained unpublished for two hundred years. Other accounts fared likewise. By contrast, China, since the invention of printing under the Sung (960-1127), had a long history of timely Buddhist publication.

The aim of this international conference is to work towards a better understanding of Myanmar’s transition toward peace and democratization, economic reforms, and ethnic politics, and its increased connection with a global society, as well as how Myanmar maintains its diverse cultures and traditions. It is hoped that the conference will stimulate further research and exchanges on issues related to Burma/Myanmar studies. This Book of Abstracts well demonstrates the diverse interests of scholars and students of Burma/Myanmar’s society and their concerns about the transformation, as well as its social and environmental consequences. The corresponding papers have been uploaded onto the RCSD website. Those who are interested in the full text of these papers are invited to visit our website at http://rcsd.soc.cmu.ac.th/web/Burma/home.php.
