SUMMARY:Is Hinduism Nothing More than Caste?
DESCRIPTION:In the Western Imagination\, Caste has come to define Hinduism. And the study of Hinduism by western Academics gets centered on Caste as the only organizing principle of Hinduism. How did this happen? Especially when Caste is not a word that occurs originally in any of the Indian languages? Is Varna and Jati – the words used in Sanskrit the same as Caste? Or is there a subtle but important distinction in meaning\, when these Sanskrit words get mapped into the English word – Caste? \nIn this Webinar\, we will explore this mystery – How did a word “Caste” which does not exist in the Indian vocabulary come to dominate the discourse about Hindu Dharma? We will also introduce the “Orientation to Hindu Studies” course\, where prospective Students can learn how Hindu University of America is reorganizing the Academic Study of Hinduism to represent an authentic Hindu perspective. \n https://bit.ly/3my8oXk

SUMMARY:1/19 National Day of Unity and Remembrance
DESCRIPTION:Remember Those Lost to COVID \nWe have asked cities and towns in Santa Clara County to observe a National Day of Unity and Remembrance by illuminating their city hall and/or other public buildings the evening of Tuesday\, January 19 as a non-partisan expression of national unity and remembrance of the nearly 400\,000 Americans who have died in the COVID pandemic.  \nThe City of San Jose has confirmed it will illuminate San Jose City Hall in gold light as part of this observance\, and we anticipate other cities and towns will participate. \nIn addition\, we are asking local faith communities to toll bells or make other solemn public observances at 2:30pm Pacific time\, to coincide with an event in Washington\, D.C. in which the Biden Inaugural Committee will illuminate the Reflection Pool at the Lincoln Memorial in memory of those lost to COVID. \nSanta Clara County residents can join in these observances by lighting a room at the front of their home at 5:30pm Pacific time.
