Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Beyond the Threshold is the first book to seriously consider the interplay between traditional world religions and metaphysical experiences in exploring the timeless question of what happens when we die. Christopher M. Moreman examines and compares the beliefs and practices of Judaism, Christianity, Islam, Hinduism, Buddhism, Confucianism, and Taoism, as well as psychic phenomena such as mediums and near-death experiences. While ultimately the afterlife remains unknowable, Moreman's unique, in-depth exploration of both beliefs and experiences can help readers reach their own understanding of the afterlife and how to live.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Threshold of Religion At the International Congress for the History of Religions held recently in Oxford, several friends who listened to the paper on "The Conception of Mana," which appears fourth in the present collection, were kind enough to suggest that it ought to be published under one cover with various scattered essays wherein aspects of the same subject had previously been examined. The essays in question were: "Pre-Animistic Religion," Folk-Lore, June 1900, pp. 162-182; "From Spell to Prayer," Folk-Lore, June 1904, pp. 132-165; "Is Taboo a Negative Magic?" Anthropological Essays, presented to Edward Burnett Tylor in honour of his 75th birthday, October 2, 1907, pp. 219-234; and A Sociological View of Comparative Religion, Sociological Review, January 1908, pp. 48-60. By the kind leave of the Editor of Folk-Lore, the Delegates of the Clarendon Press, and the Editor of the Sociological Review, it has been possible to proceed to the realization of this idea, conceived as I have shown amid the fervent courtesies of a festive occasion.

Download or read book Crossing the Threshold written by Dominique-Sila Kahn and published by I.B. Tauris. This book was released on 2004-08-27 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Who is Hindu, who is Muslim? The answer, according to Dominique-Sila Khan, is not as simple as generally assumed. By analyzing documentary sources as well as original field data, she examines the shaping of religious identities in South Asia, particularly in North India. The author argues that the perception of Islam and Hinduism as two monolithic and perpetually antagonistic faiths coexisting uneasily in South Asia has become so deeply ingrained that the complexity of the historical fabric is often overlooked or ignored. She demonstrates how the emergence of clear-cut categories is a comparatively recent phenomenon, and shows how the past is characterized by a remarkable fluidity and diversity in the social and religious milieus of the two faiths. In exploring the historical mechanisms that have led to the emergence and crystallization of religious identities the author sheds light on the increasing number of conflicts which threaten the harmonious co-existence of South Asian communities today.

Download or read book Crossing the Threshold of Divine Revelation written by William j. Abraham and published by Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing. This book was released on 2006-03-09 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The last few decades have seen a revolution in debates about the rationality of Christian belief. Among the array of current options for justifying religious belief, however, nearly every one assumes that a general theory of knowing and a minimal version of theism must be adopted before the rationality of Christian belief can be tackled. In Crossing the Threshold of Divine Revelation William J. Abraham confronts both of these assumptions, arguing that epistemology must begin with its particular target of inquiry in Abraham s case the full-blooded canonical theism of the early, undivided Christian church. He argues, moreover, that special divine revelation forms a crucial threshold at the entrance to the epistemology of Christian belief. Sure to intrigue philosophers, theologians, and curious students, Abraham s robust vision of Christian faith provides a creative solution to many of the current difficulties in philosophy and theology.
