Liberation Theology Reading Group: First Meeting

MEETING TIME TBD. Sign up here.

Are you interested in exploring questions about social justice from Hindu perspectives? Would you like to discover what resources Hindu traditions offer for thinking about oppression and liberation? Do you want to learn more about different ways Hindus have struggled against injustice and advocated for peace in the past?

Sadhana is launching a monthly reading group to explore these questions through the lens of liberation theology. This reading group is for Hindu youth and adults (16+) who are interested in learning more about Hinduism and liberation theology. You do not need to be an expert - we welcome people who are just learning about this topic!

Liberation theology urges us to think about individual liberation in relationship to social liberation. Different liberation theologies have developed in Christianity, Islam, Hinduism, and other religions - but all fundamentally agree that we have a spiritual commitment to uplift the poor and the oppressed. This reading group will explore what liberation theology looks like in theory and practice for Hindus today.

If you’re interested, sign up here!
