From as far back in time as history records, human beings have sought the truth some order or entity that unifies all existence. Sometimes these have been codified in certain writings aroved as scritural, other less centralised traditions have collections of sayings and stories, still others have assed on their wisdom orally. This collection contains all three tyes of tradition, roviding a unique overall view of the collective siritual wisdom of humanity. Desite the variety of form and style, the common insights shine brilliantly through, and the introductions to each tradition rovide a succinct summary of how we can relate this wisdom to our own lives today. Containing 12 chaters, each with 31 readings, the book can be used as a means of education, reference or insiration. An introduction to each tradition covers origins, teachings, exressions and themes that are relevant for us today, written in a readable style suitable for most age grous.
