My posts have slowed down a bit, not only because things are moving along very rapidly with the marketing, manuscripts, and other aspects of the DreamTime books, but also because I’m sinking my teeth into this particularly weighty tome.
Wow. No light reading this. On the other hand, it is a beautiful summary of the basis for the world’s major religions: Hinduism, Buddhism, Confucianism, Taoism Islam, Judaism, Christianity, and the Primal Religions (such as the beliefs of the Australian Aborigines). Given that so much of our world conflict stems from a difference in and misunderstanding of religious beliefs, this would seem like a good first step in trying to understand others.
I bought this book on the recommendation of a friend, and I’m very glad I did. I’d enjoy hearing from anyone else who’s read it.
