Sustainability is Sanatana Dharma
$200.00CPS2003 – (C.P.H.S – Elective Course) This course explores how the modern quest for sustainability relates to the eternal search for morality and universal truths in Sanatana Dharma.
It exposes two axiomatic flaws in our global industrial civilization that prevents humanity from contributing more to the ecosystems of the planet than extracting from them. As James Lovelock said, “If the earth improves as a result of human presence, we will flourish. If it does not, we will perish.” Therefore, creating a sustainable civilization requires aligning and implementing real world systems to facilitate our eternal search for inner peace (Chitta Vritti Nirodha) and the unity of all life (Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam).

Textual Criticism
This course teaches the fundamentals of textual criticism. Alongside a historical survey of scribal and editorial practices, we shall explore different approaches to editing texts. Of particular interest will be debating over whether to edit the best manuscript or to reconstruct a historical archetype using “Lachmann’s method” (i.e., the genealogical – reconstructive or the common-error method). Throughout, we shall be especially concerned with the correct interpretation of the critical edition—from the working hypothesis (Contini) to eclecticism (Barbi) to scientific text (Leonardi).

The Bhagavata Purana
$1,500.00Śrīmad Bhāgavatapurāṇam is one of eighteen Mahāpurāṇas of the Hindu textual tradition. It is a highly polished text Vaiṣṇava work, insuperable in its appeal to theologians, philosophers, and connoisseurs of literature. Like the Upaniṣads and the Mahābhārata, the Bhāgavatapurāṇa presents Viṣṇu, especially in the form of Kṛṣṇa as Brahman.
While remaining faithful to Vedic revelation, the Purāṇa also remains open to a variety of interpretations – non-dualism, dualism, qualified non-dualism, etc. All these are synthesized according to bhakti. Besides the Śrī Vaiṣṇava and Gauḍīya traditions, numerous commentators and teachers consider this Purāṇa to be the principal scripture of their theology and practice.
When King Parīkṣit was cursed to die in seven days, the son of Vyāsa, Śuka teaches him this text as the highest teaching and the best use of his remaining life.

The Brahmasutras
$1,500.00In this course, students will be able to understand the scope and structure of the Brahmasūtras, and to identify the text’s ontology, theology, and logical grounding in the revelation of the Vedas. The Brahmasūtras, or aphorisms on Brahman, are attributed to Bādarāyaṇa Vyāsa and consist of 555 sūtras. They constitute one of the three main texts of the philosophical-exegetic tradition of Hinduism.
This triad is called prasthāna trayī or the triad of canonical texts, the Upaniṣads and the Bhagavadgītā being the other two. The Brahmasūtras form a highly organized system of philosophical axioms that deal with the ontology and theology of Hindu revelation. These axioms deal principally with the knowledge portion of the revelation (jñānakāṇḍa), specifically the statements of the Upaniṣadic portion of the Veda.
