Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Many Paths to the Baha'i Faith, How People of Different Faith Experiences Discover Fulfillment in the Baha'i Faith, author Nathan Thomas explores the process that many people go through when they investigate this new world religion. The book describes how many people from Jewish, Christian, Islamic, Hindu, Buddhist, Native Faiths, and even agnostic backgrounds perceive and experience the Baha'i Faith. It summarizes some of the elements and teachings that people from these backgrounds often find in common with Baha'is, as the Baha'i Faith teaches that all religions come from the same foundation. It then explores some of the teachings and beliefs of the Baha'i Faith that are attractive to people. From their work for peace, justice, and equality; to their beliefs in the essential unity of science and religion and the practical approach to spiritual development, many people find aspects of this faith that intrigue them and draw them towards it. This religion, founded by a man named Baha'u'llah in the mid-1800's, offers something tangible and inspiring to every single person on the planet. And so when people have an open mind in their spiritual search, they often discover gems hidden in its depths that appeal to them. Lastly, the book explores some of the common challenges that some people overcome as they journey towards accepting this new world faith as their own. These challenges can come in many forms including new interpretations of scripture and prophesy, realizing new truths that overturn their preconceived notions, and believing that they have the personal power to change their lives and accept something new. With the help of illustrative stories, quotations from the Baha'i Holy Writings, and a brisk and conversational style, Many Paths to the Baha'i Faith can help people from a variety of backgrounds explore the Baha'i Faith from different perspectives.

Download or read book The Ocean of God written by Roland Faber and published by Anthem Press. This book was released on 2019-06-29 with total page 443 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ‘The Ocean of God’conveys the proposition that the future of religions, if they will not want to contribute to the destruction of humanity, will become transreligious. Based on the assumption that the spiritual impulse of humanity cannot simply be eradicated, religiosity will persist in transreligious forms, as secularizations, naturalizations and transhumanist dreams only envision such transformations, but fall short in their ability to replace the force of spirituality to further civilized peace of human existence on Earth and its future in evolutionary, ecological and cosmological dimensions. In relating the contributions of religious pluralism to the concept of the unity of religions, which have arisen in this “new axial age” for overcoming the checkered history of religions in furthering peace, the program of a polyphilic pluralism with its transreligious discourse, based on the insight of the fundamental relativity of (religious) truth and the special contributions of process philosophy and theology as well as the Bahá'í universe of thought, analyses and projects a new religiosity or spirit enabling religions to overcome their deepest motives of strife and warfare.

Book Synopsis Because It Gives Me Peace of Mind by : Anne Mackenzie Pearson
Download or read book Because It Gives Me Peace of Mind written by Anne Mackenzie Pearson and published by State University of New York Press. This book was released on 1996-07-11 with total page 356 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first book-length study that explores the history and nature of vrats—votive fasting rites—the role these rites play in the religious lives of Hindu women in North India, and the meanings these women attribute to them. By placing vrats within the context of various Hindu religious categories such as concepts of time; types of religious activities; goals; notions of purity and pollution; auspiciousness and inauspiciousness, the book demonstrates how the concept of vrat provides a lens to the Hindu worldview. Accordingly, it offers insight into the nature of Hindu popular religion in general and women's religion in particular. Drawing extensively on the personal narratives of individual women, this study subtly corrects the prevailing view that all women observe vrats solely for the benefit of others. The author shows that Hindu women's sense of duty and obligation to ensure the well-being of their families through the performance of vrats explains only part of the appeal of these rites. The data demonstrate that women also perform vrats for the social, physical, psychological, and spiritual benefits. Not only do vrats provide an avenue for the expression of profound spiritual yearnings, but some women use vrats as a way to gain a measure of control over their own lives, a source of empowerment in an environment in which women frequently lack control and self-determination.
