Nevada (US): Hindus have welcomed plans of prestigious Claremont School of Theology (CST) in California (USA) to train 'religious leaders for a variety of religious traditions', including Hinduism. Acclaimed Hindu statesman Rajan Zed, in a statement in Nevada
(USA) today, said that religion was the most powerful, complex and far-reaching
force in our society, so we must take it seriously. And we all knew that religion
comprised much more than our own particular tradition/experience. Rajan Zed, who
is President of Universal Society of Hinduism, pointed out that in our shared
pursuit for the truth, we could learn from one another and thus could arrive nearer
to the truth. As dialogue brought us reciprocal enrichment, we would be spiritually
richer than before the contact. CST website says: "...we will graduate religious
leaders who are well-prepared to recognize and cooperate with other religious
traditions that can play important roles in addressing the needs of our contemporary
world". Claremont School of Theology, a graduate school of The United Methodist
Church , has functioned as a Methodist theological school since its foundation
in 1885. Jerry D. Campbell is the President. |
