Description
Huston Smith traveled the globe for the first half of the 20th century in search of the ultimate questions of life: Why are we here? What do we actually desire? What’s the overall meaning?
Smith has uncovered the spiritual treasures hidden beneath thousands of years of historical and scientific distortions, from modest village temples to gleaming mosques and soaring cathedrals. Smith now tells the authentic tale of his epic quest for knowledge on religions of the world in his own words.
The goal of Huston Smith is to awaken the fullness of our humanity, to inspire us to leave the constricting walls of conventional theology, and to make us aware of the principles and ideals that enable us to succeed as individuals and societies. As seen through the eyes of this great scholar, teacher, and author, this is not the story of religious institutions, but rather the eternal truths that serve as inspiration for them.
With Houston Smith as your personal guide, you will explore the key tenets of the world’s major faiths—teachings that have profoundly influenced Houston Smith’s own life—and discover how these traditions differ while still sharing an inner language that speaks to our highest aspirations.
Beyond facts, doctrine, and dogma, Religions of the World explores the wisdom at the core of these illustrious traditions.
