Book excerpt: THE SEVEN DEADLY SINS AND THE SEVEN HEAVENLY VIRTUES by JULIAN BOUND 'The Seven Sins and Virtues as viewed in religion, ancient mythology and in art and literature.' The Seven Deadly Sins and the antidotes of The Seven Heavenly Virtues have been depicted throughout history in forms of both Greek and Roman mythology and in the world of art and literature. Perceived as being associated within the doctrine of the Christian faith, the eastern religions of Buddhism, Hinduism and Sikhism all share a parallel view of the seven sins and virtues, yet are expressed in the theology of different precepts. Examining the similarities of each sin and virtue within religions of the world, and of the portrayal in mythology and art and literature, 'The Seven Deadly Sins and The Seven Heavenly Virtues' also invites the reader to identify which sin they are prone to and of what virtue best displays their greatest qualities; the result of which is an exploration of the self within the aspects of the seven sins and seven virtues, and so acting as a guide for each soul's unique individual path.
