Thank you all for replying so quickly. Your answers to my questions make more sense than the ones I heard in class. I doubt that he learned about Hinduism from anyone that is a practicing Hindu. I don't think he was trying to be deceptive. It's an 8 week class, and in 8 weeks, we are discussing 7 different religions. I'm sure that he'll say stuff that the Buddhists won't like this coming Saturday as well. Thanks again, Jason

Hi there: I'm taking a course called "The World's Religions", and the teacher was talking about achieving moksha. He said that in order to achieve moksha, you needed to realize that the atman and the brahman were one and the same thing. He then went on to say that only males of the brahimin class could achieve moksha. Is this correct? If I'm a kshatriya, I can only live a good life and hope to come back as a brahimin next life? Thanks in advance, Jason
