This classic masterpiece on the subject of comparative religion explores the essential elements and teachings of the world's predominant faiths, including Hinduism, Buddhism, Confucianism, Taoism, Islam, Judaism, Christianity, and the native traditions of the Americas, Australia, Africa, and Oceania. Emphasizing the inner rather than institutional dimensions of these religions, this survey devotes special attention to Zen and Tibetan Buddhism, Sufism, and the teachings of Jesus. The unique appeal and gifts of each of the traditions and their hold on the human heart and imagination are conveyed with wisdom and respect. Con un estilo claro, ameno, y didáctico, esta obra clásica desgrana todas las grandes tradiciones de sabidurÃa de la humanidad, incluyendo hinduismo, budismo, confucianismo, taoÃsmo, judaÃsmo, cristianismo, islamismo y las religiones tribales de América del Norte y del Sur, Australia, Ãfrica, e OceanÃa. De cada religión expone sus lÃneas maestras: las doctrinas filosóficas, la ética, la dinámica histórica, las instituciones, y los caminos mÃsticos. Hay apartados especiales para las distintas corrientes y sensibilidades de cada religión. Toda la obra está salpicada de inteligentes reflexiones acerca de los sÃmbolos y los valores religiosos, además de indagaciones sobre las similitudes y diferencias entre las distintas doctrinas.
