Synopsis
The volume is concerned with the role of religion in the present day world. It contains some of the papers presented at the global congress on World's Religions After September 11, held in September 2006 in Montreal, Canada. These papers stress the need for interfaith dialogue to develop understanding between faiths and challenge stereotypes that have emerged concerning various religions. The papers refer to Islamic, Christian Mennonite, Baha'1, Sikh and Hindu religious traditions and also examine specific topics pertaining to the different religious faiths and traditions. They examine the life of Guru Arjan Dev and his message and its significance today, the work of Mira Behn towards conserving the environment of the Himalayas, and the indigenous Australian Christian women's perception of their religious situation. The book provides a glimpse into the life, work and experiences of the spiritual women of Ramanasrama at Tiruvannamalai in Tamil Nadu and Ramana's views on a woman's right to spirituality, asceticism and salvation. It showcases the contribution of the Interreligious Council of Central New York towards bringing people of different faiths and cultures together in mutual respect and trust. The volume also includes the text of a proposed Universal Declaration of Human Rights by the World's Religions.
