Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Living Jainism explores a system of thought that unites ethics with rational thought, in which each individual is his or her own guru and social conscience extends beyond human society to animals, plants and the whole of the natural world. The Jain Dharma is a humane and scientific spiritual pathway that has universal significance. With the re-emergence of India as a world power, Jain wisdom deserves to be better known so that it can play a creative role in global affairs. Living Jainism reveals the relevance of Jain teachings to scientific research and human society, as well as our journey towards understanding ourselves and our place in the universe. ,

Download or read book JAINISM: a SCIENTIFIC and COMPARATIVE EVALUATION written by EBA and published by . This book was released on 2019-08-29 with total page 291 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jainism is one of the oldest and the most ascetic religion in the world. Jainism holds that the universe is eternal where souls, matter etc always exist. Hence, there is no need for any creator God. Jainism was the first Indian religion which challenged the existence of God and developed its entire philosophy without God. It tried to explain the bondage and liberation of the soul in terms of its attachment and detachment from matter. Complete detachment from matter was called liberation. Liberation was supposed to be achieved by the minimization of all material desires, indifference to physical comfort and intense meditation.In ancient times, Jainism was the most rational answer to the questions of the origin and meaning of the universe. Its approach was very close to the scientific spirit. It tried to explain everything without reference to any God or supernatural reality. However, many of its conclusions have now been contradicted by the latest scientific theories. This book is a complete evaluation of Jainism. It examines the historical factors which led to the development of Jainism and its positive contribution to the growth of human consciousness. This book also demonstrates how a part of Jainism is false and harmful. A comparison has also been made between Jainism and other religions. My evaluation of the cosmological beliefs of Jainism is based on the latest scientific theories about the origin, evolution, and operation of the universe. The world-view of Jainism as stated in this book is based on Agams, the most basic texts of Jainism. All quotations are directly from these sources.This book is meant for anyone who wants to understand the religions of the world and the fundamental role they have played in shaping human thought & behavior. It would also enable you to make an informed decision on whether or not to follow or propagate the Jaina way of life.

Download or read book Science and Religion: A Very Short Introduction written by Thomas Dixon and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2008-07-24 with total page 169 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The debate between science and religion is never out of the news: emotions run high, fuelled by polemical bestsellers like The God Delusion and, at the other end of the spectrum, high-profile campaigns to teach "Intelligent Design" in schools. Yet there is much more to the debate than the clash of these extremes. As Thomas Dixon shows in this balanced and thought-provoking introduction, a whole range of views, subtle arguments, and fascinating perspectives can be found on this complex and centuries-old subject. He explores the key philosophical questions that underlie the debate, but also highlights the social, political, and ethical contexts that have made the tensions between science and religion such a fraught and interesting topic in the modern world. Dixon emphasizes how the modern conflict between evolution and creationism is quintessentially an American phenomenon, arising from the culture and history of the United States, as exemplified through the ongoing debates about how to interpret the First-Amendment's separation of church and state. Along the way, he examines landmark historical episodes such as the Galileo affair, Charles Darwin's own religious and scientific odyssey, the Scopes "Monkey Trial" in Tennessee in 1925, and the Dover Area School Board case of 2005, and includes perspectives from non-Christian religions and examples from across the physical, biological, and social sciences. About the Series: Combining authority with wit, accessibility, and style, Very Short Introductions offer an introduction to some of life's most interesting topics. Written by experts for the newcomer, they demonstrate the finest contemporary thinking about the central problems and issues in hundreds of key topics, from philosophy to Freud, quantum theory to Islam.

Download or read book Asian Religions, Technology and Science written by István Keul and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-03-27 with total page 271 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the past five decades, the field of religion-and-science scholarship has experienced a considerable expansion. This volume explores the historical and contemporary perspectives of the relationship between religion, technology and science with a focus on South and East Asia. These three areas are not seen as monolithic entities, but as discursive fields embedded in dynamic processes of cultural exchange and transformation. Bridging these arenas of knowledge and practice traditionally seen as distinct and disconnected, the book reflects on the ways of exploring the various dimensions of their interconnection. Through its various chapters, the collection provides an examination of the use of modern scientific concepts in the theologies of new religious organizations, and challenges the traditional notions of space by Western scientific conceptions in the 19th century. It looks at the synthesis of ritual elements and medical treatment in China and India, and at new funeral practices in Japan. It discusses the intersections between contemporary Western Buddhism, modern technology, and global culture, and goes on to look at women’s rights in contemporary Pakistani media. Using case studies grounded in carefully delineated temporal and regional frameworks, chapters are grouped in two sections; one on religion and science, and another on religion and technology. Illustrating the manifold perspectives and the potential for further research and discussion, this book is an important contribution to the studies of Asian Religion, Science and Technology, and Religion and Philosophy.
