SACRED DIVERSITIES 
INTRODUCTION TO INDIAN PHILOSOPHY 
flexible home study + private online tutoring

Study the six orthodox philosophical schools of Indian philosophy that shaped a brilliant spiritual legacy  

Yoga.   Sankhya.   Mimamsa.   Vaisheshika.   Vedanta.   Nyaya. 

Welcome to this introductory course! We will dig into the rich, luminous beauty of Yoga, Sankya, Mimamsa, Vaisheshika, Vedanta, and Nyaya philosophical and spiritual systems. We ask the big questions through the lens of each tradition: What is the meaning of life? What is a soul? What is God? What is real? What is the cause of suffering? What is an effective spiritual practice? What is true freedom? This journey is crafted for students who want to focus on the broad strokes of each system. Self-reflective exercises are included so you can deepen your own spiritual life and self-understanding. 

 

Sacred Diversities is suitable for beginners and students with some pre-existing knowledge. If you are a yoga practitioner, or have completed a yoga teacher training program and want to take your studies further, this is a great option! To learn more, you can download the program objectives here and the program delivery components here.
