Book excerpt: "To know the Self is the birth right of every individual. If you do not know who you are even after knowing everything, then what do you really know? The ultimate peace you are looking for lies within you. You are the very truth that you wish to discover. Stop wandering, rest in yourself, keep quiet, and listen to the sacred Silence behind all thoughts, words, experiences, states, sounds, and actions. Recognize the eternal Bliss that you are, in which everything happens spontaneously and without effort." For over a decade, people from different countries around the world have been meeting with Swami Shashwat Ji and seeking his wisdom on life and spirituality. These enlightening Satsangs were meticulously recorded and transcribed, then carefully edited and compiled into a book to allow readers to enjoy Swamiji's unadulterated words on various subjects. After reading Swamiji's teachings, one can easily know one's true Self because he not only answers all questions in a frank and direct manner, but under his loving guidance, the seeker's questions simply fall away. In the end, only Silence and Bliss remain and reveal themselves as our true nature, which does not go anywhere and does not come from anywhere, for it has always been there. Swamiji awakens us to this essential Truth and invites us to embark on the journey to Self-discovery and inner peace. About the Author Swamiji was born in 1985 in a small village in Madhya Pradesh in central India, on the banks of the river Narmada. As a child, he was curious by nature, eager to know about the lives and sadhana or spiritual practices of saints like Dhruv and Prahlad, about snature, about life and death. At the tender age of five, he began chanting Lord Rama’s name for several hours daily. At the time, he did no other practice and knew nothing else except that he wanted to unite with the Lord. His thirst for the Truth led him to leave his home at the age of fourteen, and he started visiting different places of pilgrimage and meeting different saints along the way. Occasionally, he would stay with his guru, Baba Shri Gajanand Ji Maharaj, and serve him with love and devotion.

Download or read book Ecclesial Identities in a Multi Faith Context written by Darren Duerksen and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2015-01-12 with total page 193 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When Hindus and Sikhs become followers of Christ, what happens next? Should they join Christian churches that often look and feel very unfamiliar to them? Or to what degree can or should they remain a part of their Hindu/Sikh communities and practices? Uncomfortable with the answers that were provided to them by Christian leaders in northwest India, six followers of Christ began Yeshu satsangs (Jesus truth-gatherings) that sought to follow Christ and the teachings of the Bible while remaining connected to their Hindu and/or Sikh communities. Ecclesial Identities in a Multi-faith Context analyzes the contextualized practices and identities of these leaders and their gatherings, situating these in the religious history of the region and the personal histories of the leaders themselves. Whereas Christians worry that the Yeshu satsangs and related "insider movements" are syncretizing their beliefs and are not properly identifiable as "churches," Ecclesial Identities analyzes the Yeshu satsang's narratives and practices to find vibrant expressions of local church that are grappling with questions and tensions of social and religious identity. In addition to its ethnographic approach, Ecclesial Identities also utilizes recent sociological and anthropological theory in identity formation and critical realism, as well as discussions of biblical ecclesiology from the book of Acts. This study will be a helpful resource for those interested in global Christianity, the practices and identities of churches in religiously plural environments, and the creative ways in which Christ-followers can missionally engage people of other faiths.

Download or read book Handbook of Religion and the Authority of Science written by Jim R. Lewis and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2010-11-19 with total page 940 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There has been a significant but little-noticed aspect of the interface between science and religion, namely the widespread tendency of religions to appeal to science in support of their truth claims. Though the appeal to science is most evident in more recent religions like Christian Science and Scientology, no major faith tradition is exempt from this pattern. Members of almost every religion desire to see their ‘truths’ supported by the authority of science – especially in the midst of the present historical period, when all of the comforting old certainties seem problematic and threatened. The present collection examines this pattern in a wide variety of different religions and spiritual movements, and demonstrates the many different ways in which religions appeal to the authority of science. The result is a wide-ranging and uniquely compelling study of how religions adapt their message to one of the major challenges presented by the contemporary world.

Download or read book The A to Z of Sikhism written by W. H. McLeod and published by Scarecrow Press. This book was released on 2009-07-24 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Contrary to popular opinion, there is more to Sikhism than the distinctive dress. First of all, there is the emergence of Guru Nanak, the founder of Sikhism, and the long line of his successors. There are the precepts, many related to liberation through the divine name or nam. There is a particularly turbulent history in which the Sikhs have fought to affirm their beliefs and resist external domination that continues to this day. There is also, more recently, the dispersion from the Punjab throughout the rest of India and on to Europe and the Americas. With this emigration Sikhism has become considerably less exotic, but hardly better known to outsiders. This reference is an excellent place to learn more about the religion. It provides a chronology of events, a brief introduction that gives a general overview of the religion, and a dictionary with several hundred entries, which present the gurus and other leaders, trace the rather complex history, expound some of the precepts and concepts, describe many of the rites and rituals, and explain the meaning of numerous related expressions. All this, along with a bibliography, provides readers with an informative and accessible guide toward understanding Sikhism.
