This module focuses on the transformations of Hinduism during modernity and late modernity while covering, as background, the development of Hinduism and the bhakti movements during the Islamic rule. Central to our historical approach will be attention to the growth and development of Gaudiya Vaishnavism.

The Caitanya Caritamrita module aims to provide an understanding of important themes, historical context, structure and content of the Caitanya Caritamrita, enabling a fuller appreciation of the text and greater access to reading and relishing it in the light of personal and institutional practice.

This module takes the Bhagavata Purana, sacred literature foundational to the Vaishnava tradition and approaches it from several different angles, including the contemporary scholarship. Such an approach fosters our attempts to understand the Bhagavatam as something to be presented to others in the wider world, in the contemporary world.

Unlike our standard Bhakti Sastri course, which has six scheduled assessment periods, the asynchronous one allows the student to schedule the assessment at his/her own pace within the overall deadline for the entire course.
