If you are looking for an in-depth learning and discussion on subjects such as Hinduism, Sanskrit, or Yoga studies, then Oxford Centre for Hindu Studies (OCHS) online courses offer you the perfect platform.
These courses are not just extensive and varied but also immersive.
If you are planning to learn something new or refresh the memory of old learning, then the OCHS courses provide the tools and resources that help you achieve your goal. All the courses are taught by specialists which ensures that you get the maximum during your learning.
The range of courses offered by OCHS include those on Bhagavad Gita, Colonial Hinduism, Yoga Sutras, Hindu Devotional Music and Chant, Hindu Temples, Hinduism and Popular Religious Art, The Mahabharata, Puranas, etc.
One of our most popular courses that the centre offers is on Shaivism.
Shaivism is a major strand of Hinduism that celebrates Lord Śiva, also known as Rudra, as the Supreme Being. For those who are interested in Shaivism and the representation of Śiva within Hinduism, this expertly curated course is a perfect one to enrol in.
The course on Shaivism looks at the position of Lord Śiva and his followers in Hinduism.
While almost all Hindus show reverence for the lord, there is one strand of Hinduism that regards him as the Supreme Deity.
If one is curious to know who Lord Siva is and about his worshippers and what the history of Śaivism is about, then this course offers all insights.
All of OCHS courses are planned, prepared, and delivered by scholars who have a massive knowledge on Hinduism. They are also enthusiastic and eager to share their knowledge and will guide the students through the courses, providing them with all the support they require.
