  • “Re-Rigging” the Vedas: Examining the Effects of Changing Education and Purity Standards and Political Influence on the Contemporary Hindu Priesthood
    “Re-Rigging” the Vedas: Examining the Effects of Changing Education and Purity Standards and Political Influence on the Contemporary Hindu Priesthood Christine Shanaberger Religious Studies RST 490 David McMahan, advisor Submitted: May 4, 2006 Graduated: May 13, 2006 1 Introduction In the academic study of religion, we are often given impressions about a tradition that are textually accurate, but do not directly correspond with its practice amongst its devotees. Hinduism is one such tradition where scholarly work has been predominately textual and quite removed from practices “on the ground.” While most scholars recognize that many indigenous Hindu practices do not conform to the Brahmanical standards described in ancient Hindu texts, there has only recently been a movement to study the “popular,” non-Brahmanical traditions, let alone to look at the Brahmanical practice and its variance with ancient conventions. I have personally experienced this inconsistency between textual and popular Hinduism. After spending a semester in India, I quickly realized that my background in the study of Hinduism was, indeed, merely a background. I found myself re-learning aspects of the tradition and theology that I thought I had already understood and redefining the meaning of many practices as I learned of their practical application. Most importantly, I discovered that Hindu practices and beliefs are so diverse that I could never anticipate who would believe or practice in what way. I met many “modernized” Indians who both ignored and retained many orthodox elements of their traditions, priests who were unaware of even the most basic elements of Hindu mythology, and devotees who had no qualms engaging in both orthodox Brahmin and quite unorthodox non-Brahmin religious practices.

  • Diwali FESTIVALS of LIGHT LEARNING ACTIVITIES CHRISTMAS and DIWALI
    Festivals of Light Diwali FESTIVALS OF LIGHT LEARNING ACTIVITIES CHRISTMAS AND DIWALI Teachers and leaders can adapt the following to suit their own needs. The methodology that worked best on the pilots was ‘circle time’. For more information about methodologies that build a positive learning environment please see the chapter on group work and facilitation in Lynagh N and M Potter, Joined Up (Belfast: NICIE, Corrymeela) 2005, pp 43 – 86. There is a hyperlink to this resource in the ‘Getting Started’ page in the Introduction. Teachers/leaders need to explore and be comfortable with their own identity before discussing identity with the class/group. It is important for us to accept others both for the ways in which we are different and also for the ways in which we are similar and to express our identity in ways that do not harden boundaries with others. You can find out more about sectarianism and approaches to difference in the trunk and branches sections of the downloadable ‘Moving Beyond Sectarianism’(young adults) at: www.tcd.ie/ise/projects/seed.php#mbspacks Why not think about becoming a Rights Respecting School? See www.unicef.org.uk/tz/teacher_support/rrs_award.asp for more details It is important that parents are aware of the issues in this unit. Write a letter to let them know what you will be covering and why. There are three festivals of light in this section – Diwali; Christmas and Hanukkah. They can be studied separately or comparatively. During the pilots they were studied comparatively – Christmas and Diwali and Christmas and Hanukkah over 6 sessions.

  • What Do You Know About Hinduism?
    UWS An Inclusive Community UWS Multifaith Chaplaincy September 2008 What do you know about Hinduism? Followers of the teachings of the Vedas are called Hindus. Hindu staff and students form a substantial part of the UWS community. Acknowledging and respecting Hindu identities at UWS therefore requires, in part, a basic understanding of what Hinduism and being a Hindu is about. About Hinduism Hinduism originated and developed in India over the last 3,000-3,500 years. It is the majority religion in India.
