Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Philosophies and Religions of China A mlssing la - In the same way therefore that the many Chinese who want to succeed in Western affairs are beginning to make our philosophies and religions a prominent feature of their study, so those among ourselves who wish to be first on the field ready to reap the best advantages and realize the highest benefits which the opening up of China will place in their power, must spare no pains to become fully conversant with all that China holds most sacred on these two important topics. We must remember that however lightly we may regard them the Chinese see a vast fund of meaning in the utterances of their philosophers, whom they look up to with the deepest reverence, and that they feel a real power in their different forms of religion, which have borne so large a part in influencing the lives of themselves and their ancestors for untold generations. Not only can we not afford to ignore these studies, but we shall find in them one of the missing links in the chain which is to draw the East and West into closer connection, and expand their mutual advantages. The sooner therefore that this link can be supplied and adjusted in its proper place the better. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Synopsis An Introduction to the Study of Some Living Religions of the East (Classic Reprint) by : Sydney Cave
Download or read book An Introduction to the Study of Some Living Religions of the East (Classic Reprint) written by Sydney Cave and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03-04 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An Introduction to the Study of Some Living Religions of the East is a textbook by author Sydney Cave, who lived amongst Hindus for many years of his life and intimately studied other Eastern religions. He intended this work to be a beginner's guide to the study of non-Christian religions. Cave has divided this textbook into five sections, each discussing a separate religion or religions. Hinduism, Zoroastrianism, Buddhism, Confucianism, Taoism, and Islam are all explored in depth in this book. The author follows a similar path for each section of the book. Each religion is introduced with a focus on its history and core beliefs. Important religious figures are discussed, with a focus on the spiritual significance of these individuals. The societies where these religions are practiced are also analyzed, helping to add some much needed social context to the discussion. As a primer on the non-Christian religions, Sydney Cave's book is largely a success. The reader with little or no knowledge of the religions discussed will certainly find themselves with a greater understanding of the world's religions upon conclusion of this book. The author's style is eminently readable, with clear, concise prose lending an air of authority to the text. His section on Hinduism, the religion in which Cave is most knowledgeable, is probably the highlight of the book and is certainly the most thorough. An Introduction to the Study of Some Living Religions of the East is a terrific guide for those interested in learning about the world's religions. Any student of religious studies will find this to be a valuable text, as will anybody else with an interest in learning more about the belief systems of the people that surround them.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Ideals of the East The Ideals of the East may be shortly classified as the ethical, the metaphysical, the theosophical and the religious. In many respects they differ from those of the West, but, for this very reason, are highly interesting and instructive. To the Occident we look for Law, to the Orient for Light. Believing that this Light is best expressed rhythmically, that poetry is the most fitting medium for rendering those lofty Ideals of Reason with which alone we are concerned, I have in each case given a metrical rendering of the original. The diction of the idealist, whether in India or Greece, is not that of the crowd; it is one full of types and tropes, is essentially poetic.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Upanishads and Life It is becoming increasingly natural to turn to India for material illustrative of philosophical problems. Three-quarters of a century ago Cousin wrote, We are constrained to bow the knee to the philosophy of the East, and to see in the cradle of the human race the native land of the highest philosophy. On all hands the greatness of India's heritage of philosophic thought is being recognised, and vigorous efforts are being made to remove the barriers which centuries of differing custom and environment have placed between the Eastern and the Western mind. Ex oriente lux has become more than a meaningless motto, even though for the Western enquirer clouds of obscurity may still hang low over the eastern horizon.

Download or read book Studies in Eastern Religions (Classic Reprint) written by Alfred Shenington Geden and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-07-26 with total page 404 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Studies in Eastern Religions In the transliteration of Sanskrit and other words the usual rules have been observed. Consonants are to be pronounced ordinarily as in English, vowels as in Italian. The use of diacritical marks has been as far as possible avoided. C' is the English ch in church; 3' is sh: y is always hard. In compound consonants, the second element of which is an aspirate, the component parts are separately and distinctly heard e.y., ih is pronounced neither as in thorn nor as in that, but as in foothold e'h, as in church-house ph, as in uphill. Where the second member of the compound is v, the v is equiva lent to w, except after r; cl is usually English soft th, as in though: drish therefore is to be pronounced thwish. Of the vowels e 0 are always long ai au are the diphthongs in aisle, loud. The three simple vowels a i u are short.
