Intro to World Religions
This was the last exam I took. I got a 53. I used only IC and googled terms I wanted more info on. Here are some concepts to consider when studying for this exam:
-know all of the avatars of vishnu -two principal texts of confucian tradition -"mana" means what? -"sacred" means what? -Gandhi was a leader of which century? -central teaching of the upanishads -text which Hindus view as canonical (vedas) -know all of the significant cities associated with life of Buddha -term "sangha" means what? -bodhisativa is what? -scholars debate whether Confucianism is what? -the temple in Jerusalem was first built by whom? -year that Israel was established -The three ideas of Judaism -Moses received the decalogue where? -Judaism, Christianity and Islam all recognize a common ancestor, who is this? -"torah" refers to what? -the two gospels where the birth of Jesus are found -what is the chief cause of the Lutheran reformation? -country with the largest number of Muslims -pillars of Islam -best example of scared space in Islam, is what? -most important act that occurs in the mosque -translation of "shari' a" -best translation of arabic word Islam, is what? -the belief in one god while recognizing the existence of many others is...(Henotheism) -second vatican council brought about what? -cosmogonic myth is about what? -a "trickster" in Native N. American mythology refers to what? -know what written materials were considered important to Gandhi -what is bhakti? -what is the traditional purpose of yoga? There were more questions on the Muslim faith than I expected; it's worth a thorough review....hope this helps. Good luck to all! -
