The Immanent Divine (el. knyga) (skaityta knyga) | knygos.lt

Aprašymas

While traditional Christian thought and spiritualityhave always affirmed the divine presence inhuman life, Thatamanil argues we have much to learnfrom non-dualistic Hindu thought, especially that of theeighth-century thinker Sankara, and from the Christianpanentheism of Paul Tillich. Thatamanil compares theirdiagnoses and prognoses of the human predicament inlight of their doctrine of God or Ultimate Reality. Whatemerges is a new theology of God and human beings, with a richer and more radical conception of divineimmanence, a reconceived divine transcendence, and akeener sense of how the dynamic and active Spirit at workin us anchors real hope and deep joy.

Using key insights from Christian and Hindu thoughtThatamanil vindicates comparative theology, expands thevocabulary about the ineffable God, and arrives at a newconstrual of the problems and prospects of the humancondition.
