Course Description

Buddhism as a Spiritual Path and Philosophy of the Mind*
Floyd Platton, BA
From the time the historical Buddha taught in India 2600 years ago until the mid–20th Century, Buddhism was virtually unknown in the western world. Since then its influence on western thought, and particularly on psychology, has grown disproportionate to the number of adherents. The course will explore the historical background, teachings and practices of Theravada, Mahayana, and Vajrayana paths of Buddhism. Each class will include a brief period of single–pointed meditation.
12 Tuesdays, 10:30 AM
