Book excerpt: Excerpt from Parsi, Janina, and Sikh, or Some Minor Religious Sects in India: The Maitland Prize Essay for 1897 The distinctive tenets of the J aina take us, for their origin, back to the Buddhist era in India - that greatest era of religious specula tion that the world has ever known. And hence the, study of J aina philosophy throws many side-lights on the origin of Buddhism and the period which gave it birth. It is time that this were recognized more widely by anglo-indians. The Sikh remind us of the entrance of Islam into India, and the era of its struggle with reforming Hinduism. Their faith em bodies both the pantheism of the Brahman and the monotheism of the Muslim, being itself the product of the reflections of successive teachers under both these influences.

This book was released on 2017-05-18 with total page 96 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the PREFACE WITH A WORD OF INTRODUCTION. Amidst the many evolutions of Indian religious thought, there is often a danger of losing sight of individual influences at work. The selection of these three religious sects of Parsi, Jaina, and Sikh will, it is hoped, stimulate further study of those ages of religious inquiry which have given birth to so many schools of thought. The Parsi and the Sikh religions are of twofold interest, as being religious faiths that have given birth to nations. Parsi-ism has, therefore, been treated more from an historical than a present-day standpoint, which latter fails to give a true impression of its value as a study. The Parsi can rightly claim to have encouraged the study of philology, and of the comparative method of investigating the religions of the world. The distinctive tenets of the Jaina take us, for their origin, back to the Buddhist era in India-that greatest era of religious speculation that the world has ever known. And hence the study of Jaina philosophy throws many side-lights on the origin of Buddhism and the period which gave it birth. It is time that this were recognized more widely by Anglo-Indians. The Sikh remind us of the entrance of Islam into India, and the era of its struggle with reforming Hinduism. Their faith embodies both the pantheism of the Brahman and the monotheism of the Muslim, being itself the product of the reflections of successive teachers under both these influences. -D. M. T., All Saints' Day, 1898.

This book was released on 2010-01-01 with total page 318 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mutual understanding and acceptance is perhaps the main challenge of modern society. Diversity is undoubtedly an asset, but cohabiting with people of different backgrounds and ideals calls for a new ethic of responsible intercultural relations, in Europe and in the World. This book tries to answer a series of pertinent and poignant questions arising from these issues, such as whether it is still possible to criticise ideas when this may be considered hurtful to certain religious feelings; whether society is hostage to the excessive sensitivity of certain individuals; or what legal responses there may be to these phenomena, and whether criminal law is the only answer.
