PHIL 3666

Asian Philosophies and Religions

We in the Western world encounter a vastly different world, a radically different universe of meaning, when we examine the traditions of the East. Even what we tacitly assume to be real is claimed by the Hindus and Buddhists of India to be a grand illusion. The world of China is, again, very different from India. An examination of Tibetan and Japanese religious forms will conclude our study of Asian thought. Cross-listed with RLST 3400.
