Hinduism Chapter Essay

Instructions These essays are very important elements of this online class. They practically replace the attendance and participation grades of regular, in-person classes and all together will account for 70% of your final grade. They are graded on the accuracy of information, content, adding personality and writing skill (grammar, spelling, punctuation - look for the "Grading Rubric" in the Canvas files). Your answers do not have to be lengthy: in fact, I prefer a well-written, short and to the point , i.e. no longer than 500 words essay, but it has to be meaningful and it needs to clearly connect to the textbook. You can also include information learned from the videos available on Canvas or any other source, as long as you reference it clearly. Please answer ONE of the following questions based on the information from the Hinduism chapter: Selected Question 1. One of the most famous sayings of the Upanishads is "TAT TVAM ASI". In what context does this phrase appear in the Upanishadic selections in your textbook and how does it relate with the main concept of Vedanta philosophy? Do you think this has anything to do with the religious tolerance that is apparent in Hinduism?
