Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

The wisdom expressed in the world's sacred writings is one of humanity's greatest literary treasures. This beautifully illustrated collection explores the perspectives of the world's faiths on universal themes.

Side-by-side selections, stunning full-color illustrations, and helpful commentary invite readers to compare the views of many faiths on such universal themes as the nature of the Supreme Being, the good life, love and service, fate and free will, and death and what comes next.

Readings drawn from the sacred literature of traditional faiths — Christian, Jewish, Muslim, Hindu, Buddhist; from lesser known spiritual paths — Taoist, Shinto, Zoroastrian, Jain, Sikh, Baha'i; from the oral wisdom of preliterate cultures — Australian Aboriginal, Native American; as well as from Gnostic Christianity and the Western mystery traditions makes this book a complete and inspiring survey of world spiritual thought.

Synopsis:

Celebrates our diversity and illustrates the common understanding that links all people engaged in the spiritual quest.
