An inspiring and free (!) six-week online course is being offered that brings forth the wisdom from the world’s religions. Some of the material presented includes:

  • The basic teachings of the world’s major religions, and what distinguishes them from one another
  • How Sir John Templeton contributed to the study of spirituality
  • How to apply spiritual practices suggested by Sir John Templeton
  • How to assess claims about spiritual realities made by the various religions

 

The course is being taught by Dr. Kenneth Rose and features information and interviews with some of the leading experts. Influenced as much by the Bhagavad Gita as by Thomas Merton and the Buddha, Professor Kenneth Rose has engaged in a lifelong quest to understand and practice spirituality in light of the most sublime texts in the world’s wisdom traditions. Now, this award-winning teacher will guide you on your own spiritual journey.

Dr. Rose holds an M.Div. from Harvard Divinity School and an M.A. and Ph.D. in the Study of Religion from Harvard University. He is currently Senior Research Fellow at the Graduate Theological Union (Berkeley, CA) and emeritus professor of philosophy and religion at Christopher Newport University.
