Living Biographies of Great Realigious Leaders (PocketBook)

"ALL THE GREAT RELIGIONS are upward paths to God. Not to different Gods, but to the selfsame God under different names. In the study .of the supreme religious leaders of the world it is heartening to note how many are the points on which they agree, how few the points on which they differ. However they may vary in the prescription of their services; they are all alike in their devotion to service. 'So many ways that wind and wind' to the simple creed of being kind. It is of the ut- most significance, that the founders of all the great religions, drawing their inspiration obviously from a single source of light, have based their philosophy upon an identical foundation of faith and hope and love."- observe the authors, who maintain the tonic quality of their writing in this work. From Moses to Mahatma Gandhi, twenty great religious leaders of the world parade before us in utter informality and shake hands with us, so to say. Far from being nostalgic.these studies provide exceedingly snappy reading at the end of which one feels one has found one's moorings, even in these stormy times.
