If you get a master's in world religions at Cambridge, these are the questions you might write an essay on at the end of your coursework:

  • What, if anything, did Ibn Arabi and Meister Eckhart have in common?

  • Does Ghazali's concept of nafs derive primarily from Greek antecedents?

  • What does the principle of taklif reveal about Islamic legal definitions of the human person?

  • What is the purpose of Avicenna's flying-man argument?

  • Discuss the concept of the self in any one major tradition of Hinduism.

  • In what sense is an insider's account of a religion objective?

  • How defensible is Izutsu's Sufism and Taoism?

  • 'Is there no self?' Why did the Buddha not reply?
