Download or read book A Coat of Many Colours written by Sunder Das and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2001-08-26 with total page 382 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book has been named A Coat Of Many Colours because it represents different facets of the existence of man. The articles in it are complimentary to each other. An attempt has been made here to make a comparative study of various belief systems and ways of life. The Yogic System and Christianity are not disparate disciplines, as the reader will realize. Introversion and Extraversion are not personality dimensions, but they could also denote cultural attributes, which could explain why Eastern and Western cultures developed differentially as they have done. The holistic development of the human being is the author’s main concern and these essays are meant to fulfill that aspiration. The concept of love weaves a thread through the whole book. An attempt has been made to define what holistic love is all about. Even in the humorous essays there is a serious existential element. If the book can fire enthusiasm in the reader, it would have fulfilled its purpose.

Download or read book Ix Chel Maya Queen of Heaven in the New World written by Douglas T. Peck and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2011-02-28 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: And in this book Colonel Peck reveals the current view of Maya religion is also appallingly inaccurate. The sophisticated Maya religion, which closely followed the pattern of contemporary Eurasian religions, originated in ancient times with a matriarchal “Goddess of Creation” and evolved into a patriarchal “First Father” concept in the Classic period preceding Spanish conquest. Current historians have failed to recognize that fact because of the naïve belief that the writings of colonial period folklore, which picture Maya religious concepts as crude, primitive, and often grotesque fables, represented Maya religion rather than the true, sophisticated, and realistic religious concepts expressed in their prehistoric writing and art as documented in this book.
Download or read book Creative Encounters Appreciating Difference written by Sam Gill and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2018-11-15 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Across the world from personal relationships to global politics, differences—cultural, religious, racial, gender, age, ability—are at the heart of the most disruptive and disturbing concerns. While it is laudable to nurture an environment promoting the tolerance of difference, Creative Encounters, Appreciating Difference argues for the higher goal of actually appreciating difference as essential to creativity and innovation, even if often experienced as stressful and complex. Even encounters that are apparently harmful and negatively valued (arguments, conflict, war, oppression) usually heighten the potential for creativity, innovation, movement, action, and identity. Drawing on classic encounters that have played a significant role in the founding of the academic study of religion and the social sciences, this book explores in some depth the dynamics of encounter to reveal both its problematic and creative aspects and to develop perspectives and strategies to assure encounters both include the appreciation of difference and also are recognized as creative and innovative. The two examples most extensively considered show that the academic study of the peoples indigenous to North America and to Australia involved creative constructions (concoctions) of primary examples in order to establish and give authority to academic theories and definitions. Rather than damning these examples as “bad scholarship,” this book considers them to be encounters engendering creative constructions that are distinctive to academia, yet their potential for harm must be understood. Most important to the book is a persistent development of perspectives and strategies for understanding and approaching encounters in order to assure the appreciation of difference is accompanied by the potential for creativity and innovation. Specific perspectives and strategies are related to naming, moving, gesture, and play and, particularly relevant to religion, the development of an aesthetic of impossibles. Since these historical examples engage highly relevant present concerns —the distinction of real and fake, truth and lie, map and territory—the threading essays show how these more or less classic examples might contribute to appreciating these contemporary concerns that are generated in the presence of difference.
