A Hindu at Union Theological Seminary

| Entering M.A. student Chris Fici writes for the Huffington Post about being a Hindu and a Christian: "I come to Union from a different space than most, having spent the last five years living as a monk in the bhakti-yoga tradition of the Vedic/Hindu tradition of India. While my monastic life came to a voluntary end earlier this year, I still identify and practice as a bhakti-yogi, and transcending all contradiction that may appear to be on the surface, Union is the perfect place for me to understand the true definition of yoga and the true life of a yogi in the world today. I was raised as a Catholic, and still identify as a Christian as well, and this sense of 'double belonging' is something that can be uniquely nourished and shaped here at Union." Read More>> |
