Book Synopsis Unity and Diversity in World's Living Religions by : Muhammad Hedayetullah
Download or read book Unity and Diversity in World's Living Religions written by Muhammad Hedayetullah and published by Trafford Publishing. 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.

Book Synopsis Unity in the Diversity of Different Religions by : Daljit Singh Jawa
Download or read book Unity in the Diversity of Different Religions written by Daljit Singh Jawa and published by Xlibris Us. This book was released on 2017-07-29 with total page 76 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the present book entitled Unity in the Diversity of Different Religions, with the help of specific quotes and many true or mythical stories, the author illustrates that even though religions of the world may appear very different from one another in their rituals or ways of worship, at their core, they all teach us to be good human beings. They all teach us to practice virtues (like love, compassion, and forgiveness) and to forsake sinful tendencies (like lust, anger, greed, and ego). The author hopes that the readers would enjoy these quotes and stories and find that beside their own religion, other religions also have good things to tell, which we need to share with our friends, particularly young children, so that this world may eventually become like heaven on earth, where people of all faiths are blossoming and spreading their beauty and fragrance for all to enjoy.

Book Synopsis Religions in Dialogue by : Alan Race
Download or read book Religions in Dialogue written by Alan Race and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-11-30 with total page 387 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This title was first published in 2002. Judaism, Christianity and Islam, as Abrahamic religions, share much theological common ground and the momentum for dialogue between them at theological levels has greatly increased in recent decades. This book explores the relationship between religion and the modern democratic state from the perspective of these three monotheistic traditions. It investigates how the three religions in dialogue might overcome their historic antagonism as a prelude to working for the development of the global common good. As part of the test of religious ideals, some of the contributions bring theory down to earth by examining the role of religion in three democratic states with different histories - Turkey, Indonesia, India - and also in relation to a culture of human rights. Drawing together leading Muslim, Christian, and Jewish authors from America, Europe and Asia, the book presents a rare collaboration of faiths and ideas to make a contribution to studies of inter-religious dialogue and the changing role of religion in the democratic state.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Blood. Thick, red, still. I shivered in spite of the comfortable temperature in the room. Staring fixedly at the ooze, I watched the edges curl inward as if it were trying to remove itself from the white linoleum, embarrassed by its own unseemly appearance. Except for the blood, all was normal in the primate biology lab of Loma University. Situated in upscale San Larimor, the campus's property nestles in the rolling hills just northwest of Los Angeles renowned for stately Mediterranean style mansions and frequent celebrity sightings. San Larimor Police Detective, Cate Blaine becomes embroiled in a puzzle of blood, a missing security guard and a deadly chase against time. While searching for the answers to the case, Cate is searching for clues to solving her own inner battle dealing with the senseless loss of her son and husband. As she moves between the real world of crime and the inner chaos of her emotions, she is in jeopardy of loosing her job and her sanity. Thrown into an unwelcome partnership with LU's Private Security chief, Sloane Stevens, Cate fights the impulse to keep case details from the blue-eyed, ex-cop, when . . . The flashlight reflecting off the industrial plastic, made Stan's face and body just visible. Blank eyes stared back at us, a silent scream contorting his features. Sloane's involvement proves almost too much, as Cate races against time . . . murders and the possibility of her safety.
