This book was released on 2010-11 with total page 259 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Muhammad Hedayetullah has spent much of his life and career studying the religions of the world, and he has come to a very simple but informed conclusion: all world religions are basically the same. Certainly, they are spread across separate geographical areas. Yes, the deities of different religions are called by different names. And yet, there is a unity of purpose among them all. Unity and Diversity in World's Living Religions is one man's educated journey through the religions of the world. By focusing on the living religions of today, he has derived a conclusive level of similarity underlying every culture known to modern man. From the deities worshipped by Hinduism, to Confucianism and even Christianity, all cultures seek a connection with a higher power for strength, guidance, and love. Hedayetullah's conclusions are remarkable in this day and age, especially with religious wars and prejudices based solely on the adverse beliefs of the so-called "enemy." What would the world be like if we were to realize and accept that we are all one people, under one higher power, seeking to worship together? It is not a simple feat, but it starts with a solitary insight: no matter where we are or what we believe, we are one.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Unity in the Diversity of Different Religions uses quotes and stories to demonstrate that even though religions of the world appear different, yet at their core they teach us all to be good human beings. They teach us to practice virtues such as love, compassion, forgiveness, generosity, etc. and, we are to forsake negative attributes. The author hopes this book will help advance interfaith understanding. "Daljit Singh Jawa has given us work in his lifelong pursuit of the underlying unity of religions amidst their manifold diversity. The stories and anecdotes gathered here can be read with delight and benefit by all those wishing to join his quest to discover enduring truths which have inspired the world's faiths--and faithful- throughout history." - Barry S. Crawford, Professor of Religious Studies, Emeritus, Washburn University. "Unity In Diversity Of Different Religions, is unusual and valuable as it compares the teachings of Sikhism and Bahá'í with other world religions often outside of Western religious studies. This is a welcome and important ground-breaking work in interfaith and comparative religious studies." - Dr. Chris Hamilton, Professor of World Religions and Political Science, Washburn University. "Daljit Jawa's book, Unity In Diversity, is a delightful change from the Western-oriented inter-faith books we are more familiar with. In his book we learn from the Sikh, Buddhist and Hindu traditions which are less well-known in the West. Thank you, Daljit for sharing." - Duane L. Herrmann, former President: Interfaith of Topeka.

Book Synopsis The Beautiful Community by : Irwyn L Ince, Jr
Download or read book The Beautiful Community written by Irwyn L Ince, Jr and published by . This book was released on 2021-06-02 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The church is at its best when it pursues the biblical value of unity in diversity. Our world has been torn asunder by racial, ethnic, and ideological differences. It is seen in our politics, felt in our families, and ingrained in our theology. Sadly, the church has often reinforced these ethnic and racial divides. To cast off the ugliness of disunity and heal our fractured humanity, we must cultivate spiritual practices that help us pursue beautiful community. In The Beautiful Community, pastor and theologian Irwyn Ince boldly unpacks the reasons for our divisions while gently guiding us toward our true hope for wholeness and reconciliation. God reveals himself to us in his trinitarian life as the perfection of beauty, and essential to this beauty is his work as Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. The gospel imperative to pursue the beautiful community-unity in diversity across lines of difference-is rooted in reflecting the beautiful community of our triune God. This book calls us into and provides tools for that pursuit.

Book Synopsis Anthropology of Religion by : Richley H. Crapo
Download or read book Anthropology of Religion written by Richley H. Crapo and published by McGraw-Hill Humanities, Social Sciences & World Languages. This book was released on 2003 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This text offers an alternative to the case-driven approach that the sole use of a reader tends to foster. It provides students with ways of conceptualizing what religion is, what its social and psychological functions are, the nature of religious symbolism and religious behaviour, and the organizational structure of religions. All the standard topics are covered (e.g., ideology and symbolism, ritual and ceremony, organizational forms, and social and psychological functions of religion) as well as ones of more recent interest such as religion and gender, the psychology of religion, and pilgrimage. - Extended narrative examples illustrate the theoretical and analytic discussions in the text, expose students to a variety of different religions, and provide real-world examples of the concepts of each chapter. - An integrated student study guide (self-test materials) at the end of each chapter allows students to evaluate their own mastery of each chapter, determine what they need to review further, and prepare for course tests. - The text is copiously illustrated with ethnographic examples from both western and non-western religions.

Book Synopsis Empowerment of Women for Promoting Global Health and Quality of Life by : Snehendu B. Kar
Download or read book Empowerment of Women for Promoting Global Health and Quality of Life written by Snehendu B. Kar and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2018 with total page 625 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Empowerment of Women for Promoting Health and Quality of Life reviews the evolution of modern Public Health and Global Public Health and the role of women's empowerment for promoting global health. It critically reviews the evolution of global health since the 1990s when the UN initiated the Human Development Approach and adopted the millennial development goals through global consensuses. It analyses the paradigm shifts from disease-based prevention using the Public Health model to a new paradigm focusing on the root causes of health problems globally (e.g. inequalities, powerlessness). It reviews the philosophical, theoretical and empirical foundations of these paradigms. The second section presents our meta-analysis of 86 successful women's empowerment case-studies around the world that address threats to health and well-being of their families and communities. These movements represent four domains: human-rights, equal-rights, health, and income. Using an EMPOWER (acronym) framework designed for the meta-analysis, it answers six questions: can ordinary women organize empowerment movements that enhance the well-being of their families and communities; if so, what are their characteristics; what problems motivate them; which empowerment methods are used and do they vary by domains; who support and oppose them and how; and what are the social contexts that affect their movements. Success consists of: accomplishing the original goal/s, external recognition and/or replication by others, and subjective and objective empowerment outcomes. A summary of each case allows readers to learn directly from that movement. The final chapter critically reviews the key findings, issues and their implications for policy, actions, and research in human service professions.
