Excellent dialogue of the South Asian religions and Ecology.
This was well put together- it would have helped me if there were printable timelines and summaries-but that's my learning style- does anyone read what we write??
South Asian Religions & Ecology
At first glance the fields of religion and ecology may seem and unlikely pairing, but a deeper consideration reveals the two have a great deal to contribute to one another and are indeed inextricably linked. Religions recognize the unity and interdependence of humans with nature. Ecological sciences affirm this deep interconnection with the natural world. This partnership can inspire work for the wellbeing of the Earth community There is a need for broader literacy and deeper knowledge of the world’s religions and their ecological contributions. This specialization, "Religions and Ecology: Restoring the Earth Community", contributes such a perspective. Each course celebrates the vitality of religiously-informed action for the Earth and recognizes the longstanding contributions of Indigenous peoples in offering visions and practices for ecological flourishing. This course is part 3 of 5 of the "Religions and Ecology: Restoring the Earth Community" specialization that focuses on the ecological dimensions of religious traditions throughout the world. The course you are about to begin is designed as a gateway to these aspects of the South Asian religions, philosophies, and practices of Hinduism, Jainism, Yoga, Buddhism, Sikhism, and Baha’i Faith. So much has emerged in the last several decades in this area, as you will see. While we have taught this course at Yale, we have adapted it for learners from a wide range of backgrounds. This course is for lifelong learners curious to know more about world religions and ecology, environmental professionals eager to deepen the discourse of environmental protection and conservation, those working with non-profit organizations and NGOs on issues of ecological justice, and religion leaders and laity who wish to know how they can contribute to interreligious dialogue on environmental projects.

评论日期：Feb 1, 2024I am entirely grateful for everything I learnt during this course. Not only did it allow me to develop a fundamental knowledge about south Asian religions (Hindhuism, Jainism, Buddhism, Sikhism and Baha'i faith) and how they shaped the history and society of India, I also learnt about the tremendous ecological challenges that India faces today. The course focuses on how these religions, with their traditions can contribute to solutions in the age of environmental degradation. At a time when urgent action is needed, it is no less important that solutions are considered from all possible angles. Therfore the knowledge this course conveys, is a true blessing for this entire debate. Thank you so much for your amazing work, Mary Evelyn Tucker and John Grim.

评论日期：Apr 25, 2022As a South Asian, Indian and Hindu, I was very keen on understanding the conflicted relationship that my country and religion has with the environment. This course did justice to this by bringing to focus, both the good and the debateable aspects, of not just Hinduism, but all South Asian religions. This included Buddhism, Jainism, Sikhism, Baha'i and the practice of Yoga.
I only have one complaint - some of the videos did not work and it would be great if the technical issues were addressed.

评论日期：Jun 1, 2023My time in Yale University's South Asian Religions & Ecology course was fantastic. My grasp of the ecological aspects of South Asian faiths was expanded by the thorough curriculum, interesting lecturers, and global perspective. It was transformational and strongly advised. highly recommended.
