Description
MLBD Comparative Religion by K N Tiwari
This book is primarily meant for the use of Honours and Post graduate students of Philosophy and Religion of the Indian Universities. Most of the books that are available on the subject dwell more upon the history of the origin and growth of the different religions rather than upon the basic principles, beliefs and practices that these religions inculcate and emphasize. Instead of going into the history of religions the author deals with certain specific topics relating to the important beliefs and practices of the followers of these religions, making the approach topical rather than historical. To make the study really comparative a separate chapter has been added which compares the religions on the specific topics taken up in the book. Towards the end the author has attempted to asses the possibility of a Universal Religion. The book is written in lucid style and contains much useful and interesting material for students as well as general readers.
