Hinduism and Buddhism
Consider the following questions:
Describe the theme of Brahman as it has been developed in Hinduism (even Jainism). Finally, show how the theme is an essential part of the Hindu (even Jain) tradition. It does not matter which theme is chosen but only one.
What are the features of Buddhism that fit with our modern scientific outlook? And what are the features that are not consistent with contemporary science? How do these features taken together explain Buddhism's spread into the contemporary West?
