HUMN 7380 - Waking Up: The Philosophy of Yoga and the Practice of Meditation


Credits: 3

Explores the philosophical and psychological foundation assumptions of the rich (and often controversial) Hindu traditions of yoga and tantra. Emphasizes theory, experience, and practice as it relates to yogic and tantric vision, energy centers, breathing techniques, modes of meditation, and gods and goddesses. Promotes understanding of the nature of selfhood and consciousness, the sacralization of sexuality and daily life, and the goal of full awakening to one’s divine nature. May be applied to the following curricular field concentrations: humanities; global studies; arts and cultural traditions; gender studies.
