Religion og spiritualitet
Over three sessions Daniela explores Hindu asceticism, featuring the differences among the main ascetic groups and then focusing on their sādhanās or spiritual disciplines with close attention to the practice of austerities and the practice of yoga.
Session 1: An introduction to Hindu asceticism providing a historical background of its origin and developments, highlighting differences among the main ascetic groups, especially the Śaivas and Vaiṣṇavas.
Session 2: A discussion about tapas (the inner spiritual fire) developed through tapasyās (austerities). We will explore how the notion of tapas developed over the centuries and how it adapted to changing religious and ascetic contexts.
Session 3: Yoga from the ascetic perspective, highlighting the main meditative practices of yoga as well as the role of yoga as a sādhanā over the centuries to present day.
