This course is open to all, across the globe. It is meant for both teenagers, parents and grand parents, together or separately and will focus on exploring the spirit of Hinduism with an intent to stimulate meaningful conversation about Hinduism between teenagers and their parents. This series of courses is designed to take discussion and contemplation from beyond the course window, into the portals of home, family and society. Coming in this series of courses, this course, titled “Exploring Hinduism – Cosmology and Calendar of Hindu Civilization”, will take the explorer on a travel into the whorls of Space, to the very depths of Time in order to see the fundamentals that have gone to make up the Timekeeping tradition of the Hindus. Why and where does the Hindu Calendar differ from the worldwide, commonly followed Gregorian Calendar? This course will also examine whether the Hindu calendar is scientific and if so, how does it bear relevance to modern world? It will also throw more light on how Hindu celebrations and traditions are in sync with Nature and break the myths that have dubbed them superstitious and belief based. |
