Look up the following list of terms (Wikipedia is fine for this assignment, though if you do not understand the definition given on Wikipedia, you should consult other sources). Remember that all definitions should pertain to that word as it relates to Hinduism:
- varna & the 4 castes within this system (NOT the larger social hierarchy in Indian society)
- Four Noble Truths
- Noble Eightfold Path
- Nirvana
- Self
- dharma
- the Buddha
- ablutions
- Atman
- the cycle of rebirth
- karma
- maya
- Upanishads
These definitions are due tomorrow. Part I of
Siddhartha (Chapters 1-4) are due on Monday. You may use
the study guide to help structure your reading, but I will not collect it.
If you did not finish your
quest chart that goes along with Books IX-X of
Gilgamesh, you should have it done by tomorrow.
Oh, and Wednesday is notecard day. Behave accordingly.
