Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The world is a very religious place. Wherever you look, people are worshipping, praying, believing, following, even dying for their faith. But are all faiths the same? Do they all call on the same God using different names? Are their beliefs and practices simply cultural expressions of the same spiritual longings? In this timely book, John Dickson presents each of the world's major religions in its best light. He carefully outlines the history, belief systems and spiritual practices of Hinduism, Buddhism, Judaism, Christianity and Islam so that the interested 'spectator' can explore their similarities and differences. For sceptics, believers and students of religion the book provides a fair and friendly introduction to this ultimate subject.

Book excerpt: The Truth is the award-winning first book in The Oracle Institute foundational trilogy. It presents a summary of the divine messages sent to us by God through the Prophets. When studied successively, these spiritual lessons form a "Tower of Truth" that should not be broken or interpreted along sectarian lines. Instead, these Truths should be assimilated into a contemporary spiritual and scientific database and shared by everyone, regardless of religious affiliation.The Truth explores the five primary religions that evolved after the Prophets died: Hinduism, Judaism, Buddhism, Christianity, and Islam, to determine whether these manmade religions have remained faithful to the Truth, including the primordial Truth that God is half masculine and half feminine energy. The Truth reveals that mankind has built a "Tower of Babel" with God's messages. Moreover, these now ancient religions have polarized humanity and brought us to the brink of World War III. The book also includes an objective template for measuring the adequacy of any religion, and an Appendix that shows the nexus between politics and religion and politics thought human history.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Getting It, Then Getting AlongUnderstanding the World's Five Major Religions: Collaborative rather than DivisiveThis is a book about the five religious philosophies and belief systems that the majority of the world's populations follow. It is not one that proselytizes or presents dogma with the intent to convince the reader of the rightness or wrongness of one system or one belief over another. Neither does it insist that one must be religious or even believe in God to be a good person. The book's purpose is to educate and provide an overview of the history, the evolution and the basic beliefs of those who practice one of the five religions. For the most part, little is known about others' religious beliefs in that spirituality is usually derived from ones own culture and heritage. This lack of knowledge can often lead to misconceptions about religious systems not familiar to us. As a result, our opinions and attitudes may be affected toward those who believe differently than we do. Social media can also cause confusion when the originator of a post may have a specific "agenda" and provide only the information that supports that purpose but is not objective or provide the whole truth.With better understanding of others' religious beliefs, it is hoped that greater tolerance for religious diversity will develop and respectful discourse and interactions will result. If this is possible for religious diversity, it may also be useful for other human diversities. A focus of the book is to promote compassionate behavior when dealing with differences with an outlook that our variances can be advantageous and may, in fact, allow for resolution of some of the planet's most worrisome concerns. Different perspectives through different cultural lenses may together solve universal problems. The book further emphasizes that change begins with each individual and one by one as more tolerance, more respect and greater compassion toward others occurs; our world will become a kinder, gentler place. After a beginning chapter that gives reference to many unfounded prejudices and misunderstandings that have led to today's intolerance and violence, each of five subsequent chapters focuses on one of the five major religions: Judaism, Christianity, Islam, Hinduism, Buddhist. From the advent of each belief system to how each religion is practiced today, the history and basic tenants of each religion are presented. Finally, it is left to the reader to decide if the commonalities of the religions described are not greater than their differences.

Book excerpt: This award-winning title presents a summary of the divine messages sent to us by God through our greatest prophets. When studied successively, these spiritual lessons form a tower of truth that should not be broken or interpreted along religious lines. The Truth explores the five primary religions that evolved after the prophets died—Hinduism, Judaism, Buddhism, Christianity, and Islam—to determine whether they are fostering Earth plane peace and leading us toward ethereal plane enlightenment. Indeed, these now-ancient religions have polarized humanity and brought us to the brink of World War III. Sadly, the global resurgence of religious fundamentalism is a direct result of the divisive and intolerant practices perpetuated by orthodox clerics, who are clinging to outdated mythology and impeding our spiritual progress. The Truth posits that humanity is on the brink of a new spiritual paradigm.
