We went to India in January and I was inspired to teach my congregation more about a faith that makes up part of our UU living tradition. I was amazed at the traditions and rituals of Hindu denominations that reflect our modern UU practices and wondered why we never learn about those as part of "our" history. Here's the first part of this diving in to the depths for a UU minister searching for a better way to live. How does a UU and a Progressive Christian authentically encounter Hinduism without engaging in appropriation? What does it mean to be a "living tradition?" Isn't it a little far-fetched to worship more than 3 million gods and goddesses...or is it just worshipping one? Tune in to find out.
