Conclusion. - Notes. - Bibliography. - Index. Über die Verfasserin: June McDaniel specializes in the study of religious experience, especially in the Hindu tradition. In her own words: I work in the field of the History of Religions, in which we study the history and development of religious ideas, and how religious experiences are understood and interpreted in different cultures. In teaching, I believe that it is important for students to learn both the range of religions--which means gaining wide knowledge of many religious traditions, both present and past--and also to develop depth within a specific tradition, to gain expertise and insight into its religious perspectives. While such skills as critical thinking and analytic ability are important, I also emphasize developing empathy towards other cultures, and the ability to look at events through other religious perspectives. A good researcher can be both insider and outsider in the religion of his or her expertise, and be capable of comparing religious themes and ideas across both classical and folk traditions. The courses I teach include World Religions, Women and Religion, Mysticism and Religious Experience, Religions of India, Sacred Texts of the East, Phenomenology of Religion, and Myth, Ritual and Symbol.
