Gurus in America - The incredible impact of India
Gurus in America - The incredible impact of India's Dharmic Ambassadors: This course delves into the significant impact of Indian gurus, swamis, and yogacharyas on American spirituality, starting with Swami Vivekananda in 1893. Students will examine the backgrounds, personalities, teaching styles, and organizational methods of the most renowned and influential gurus, as well as some lesser-known figures.

Evaluate the collective impact of these gurus on the spiritual transformation of the West.
