Liberal Studies 131 (Eastern And Comparative Religion) Final Exam Study Guide Date of Exam: Tuesday, April 23 (9 am – Noon), Tyee 204 Procedure for the Final: Nine of the terms listed below will appear on the final exam. You will be expected to write mini-essays on four of the terms. To be fully prepared, then, you need to come into the exam ready to write about any eight of the terms below. I will be looking for a minimum of duplication of information in your different mini-essays. The mini-essays should combine important details (What? When? Who? Where? Why? How?) with a discussion of historical and religious significance. Try to integrate important facts within an overall analysis. Instead of individual identifications, each mini-essay asks you to bring together two or more terms. What possible central theme or themes might you use to focus your mini-essay? Can, for example, the paired terms be used to compare and contrast religions or to highlight divergent traditions within one particular religion? Can you move beyond a discussion of the term’s immediate significance and connect it to other events, ideas or people in the course? Can you imaginatively use the term to say something interesting about world religion? Anyone who needs extra time beyond the slotted three hours will be provided with this. THE TERMS 1. Buddhist Wheel and Christian Cross 2. Bhagavad Gita and Dhammapada 3. Moksha and Nirvana 4. Theravada and Mahayana Buddhism 5. Shiva and Vishnu 6. Buddha and Mahavira 7. Confucius and LaoTzu 8. Kali and Virgin Mary 9. Four Noble Truths of Buddhism and Five Pillars of Islam 10. Bodhi Tree and Kaa’ba 11. Kumbh Mela and the Hajj 12. Synagogues and Gurdwaras 13. Shinto Shrines and Buddhist Stupas **** The Journal is also due at the Exam.
