Circling the Elephant
Circling the Elephant is a brilliant contribution by John J. Thatamanil to the scholarly conversation on how to think about religious diversity theologically. Throughout his career thus far, Thatamanil has already made substantial contributions to this discourse, through countless articles and talks in conferences, through his many social media interactions, and, not least, through his 2006 book, The Immanent Divine: God, Creation, and the Human …
Transition of Sleep Problems Subgroups and Its Predictors in Chinese Early Adolescents
Sleep problems are highly prevalent among early adolescents globally. This study aimed to identify heterogeneous subgroups of sleep problems, their transitions, and predictors of transition among Chinese early adolescents. A total of 653 adolescents (52.40% boys; baseline: M age = 13.66) participated in this longitudinal study over six months. LCA identified three subgroups: good sleepers (i.e., exhibiting low probabilities across all sleep probl…
War and Peace in Modern Hindu Thought-Gandhi, Aurobindo, and Vivekananda in Conversation
Mohandas Gandhi (1869-1948) and Aurobindo Ghose (1872-1950) hold distinct, yet overlapping, positions on the topic of war and peace, violence and nonviolence, and how evil ought to best be confronted. To some extent, the overlaps in their views can be seen as an effect of them basing their respective ideals on a shared foundation of Hindu teaching. More specifically, at least some portion of this overlap can potentially be seen as a function of t…

The Relationship Between Violence Exposure and Academic Performance
On Swami Vivekananda and Caste Prejudice
The well-known modern Hindu reformer and pioneer of Vedānta in the West, Swami Vivekananda (1863-1902), based his ethical vision on mysticism: specifically, on the direct experience of non-duality and the ultimate unity and organic interconnectedness of all beings. This paper will explore the implications of this experientially based ethos for caste prejudice. Caste remains a hot-button issue in India to the present day and was no less so in the …

Goddess, Guru, and Sanghajanani
Saradamani Mukhopadhyay (1853-1920), more widely known as Sarada Devi and, to her devotees, the Holy Mother, presents an illuminating case study of the various means by which, in many respects, a highly traditional and typical rural Hindu woman of her time, operating from within the categories of Bengali Hindu society, was able to navigate these categories in ways that did not undermine, but rather enhanced, her agency, enabling her to shape her …

Beyond the Implicit Materialism of Mere Description
A Complex Ultimate Reality
This essay will pose and seek to answer the following question: If, as Swami Vivekananda claims, the four yogas are independent and equally effective paths to God-realization and liberation from the cycle of rebirth, then what must reality be like? What ontology is implied by the claim that the four yogas are all equally effective paths to the supreme goal of religious life? What metaphysical conditions would enable this pluralistic assertion to …
Religious Experience, Hindu Pluralism, and Hope
The pluralistic turn in modern Hindu thought corresponds with the rise of an emphasis on direct experience of divine realities in this tradition. Both pluralism and a focus on experience have precedents in premodern Hindu traditions, but have become especially prominent in modern Hinduism. The paradigmatic example in the modern period of a religious subject embarking upon a pluralistic quest for direct experience of ultimate reality as mediated t…
Encountering the Ultimate in the Bhagavad Gītā
Is religious experience necessarily the product of one specific tradition? The constructivist approach to religious experience which prevails in the contemporary academy certainly suggests that this is the case. But is this not at odds with the idea of an ultimate reality that exists objectively and independently of what any given group of human beings may think about it? This paper argues that the phenomenon of religious conversion militates aga…
Consciousness and relativity
Among the numerous intellectual traditions indigenous to South Asia, the Jaina or Jain tradition is distinctive in a number of important ways. Not least among these is its view of consciousness as inherent to all living beings. According to Jain tradition, not only are all living beings possessed of consciousness, but this consciousness is also, in each being, potentially infinite in extent. Indeed, the ultimate soteriological goal of the Jain pa…
Perspectives on Reincarnation
One Life/Many Lives
This essay consists of philosophical and comparative theological reflections on the topic of rebirth, or reincarnation. Informed by the work of William James, John Hick, and Francis X. Clooney, the essay first establishes the author's stance that reincarnation is a plausible option for belief, at least as attractive as its two main rivals. These rival options are the belief in an everlasting life in either heaven or hell, characteristic of religi…

An Observational Study of Early Heterosexual Interaction at Middle School Dances
In this longitudinal, observational study of heterosexual interaction at middle school dances we examined the degree to which boys' and girls' groups became more gender integrated over time. The results show groups became more integrated over time with the pattern differing by gender. Boys had a relatively low level of contact with girls over the early months with an accelerated increase in the latter months. Girls had an increase in contact with…

Spiritual Awakening (Samyagdarśana) and Other Essays – By Kamal Chand Sogani
Jainism
The Jains have constituted a small but highly culturally significant minority community in the Indian subcontinent for thousands of years. Probably best known for the profound commitment to an ethos ofahimsa, or nonviolence in thought, word, and deed, it is in the areas of nonviolence and ascetic practice that the Jains have had their greatest impact on the Hindu majority. Key themes and topics of ongoing scholarly debate and discussion in relati…
Universalism in Hinduism
One of the distinctive features of Hinduism, especially modern Hinduism, is its emphasis on universalism. Also known as religious pluralism-and sometimes perennialism or the perennial philosophy-universalism can be defined maximally as the idea that all (and minimally as the idea that many) religions contain at least some measure of truth and lead their practitioners to God-realization-that is, liberation or salvation as conceived in Hindu tradit…
