  • Religious Tolerance in World Religions (West Conshohocken, PA: Templeton Foundation Press, 2008), 396 Pp., ISBN 978-1-59947-136-5, $39.95
    512 Book Reviews / Journal of Religion in Europe 4 (2011) 501–515 Jacob Neusner & Bruce Chilton (eds.), Religious Tolerance in World Religions (West Conshohocken, PA: Templeton Foundation Press, 2008), 396 pp., ISBN 978-1-59947-136-5, $39.95 Th e term ‘tolerance’ has fallen on tough times. People who prefer intolerance, policies of ‘zero tolerance,’ or claim not to tolerate the intolerant or the intolerable are only partly responsible. Th ey share culpability with those who call for moving Beyond Tolerance (as Gustav Niebuhr and others have titled several recent books) to deeper and fuller attitudes of acceptance, affi rmation, respect, and celebration of all myriad, manner, and variety of diversity. Yet some religious and nonreligious people balk at what they see as indiscrimi- nate approbation of ideas, activities, or worship they deem false or improper. It may be diffi cult, if not impossible, to celebrate features of faiths or ideologies that perceptibly contradict or oppose one’s own. When communities have experi- enced decades, centuries, or millennia of discord, ambivalent or tolerant coexist- ence could be “as good as it gets,” at least for a time. Where affi rmation is impracticable, toleration and coexistence for adherents of diff ering or confl icting religions and ideologies should be considered indispensable in a spiritually diverse world. Jacob Neusner, Bruce Chilton, and other contributors address such dissonances in Religious Tolerance in World Religions by inspecting political, scriptural, historical, theological, and ritual resources for tolerance (and to a lesser degree, intolerance) in ancient Greece, Rome, and Israel; classical and contemporary Judaism, Christi- an ity, Mormonism, Islam, Buddhism, and Hinduism.

  • Introduction: Medieval Materials in the Sanskritic Tradition
    Part II Introduction: Medieval Materials in the Sanskritic Tradition Ruth Vanita uring the period from approximately the eighth to the eighteenth centuries A.D., Is­ D lamic culture took root in the Indian subcontinent. Various regional and religious cultures including the Muslim, Buddhist, Jain, and Hindu (Vaishnava, Shaiva, and Shakta) interacted during this period, producing a range of cultural practices that have been highly influential for subsequent periods. Although altered by modern developments during and after the colonial period, many of these practices still exist in recogniz:able form today. Among the texts generated in this period are those in Sanskrit; those in Sanskrit-based lan­ guages, many of which took on their modern forms at this time; those in the southern Indian languages; and those in the Perso-Arabic and Urdu tradition. In the first three groups, the texts we look at belong to the following major genres: the Puranas, which are collections of re­ ligious stories, compiled between the fourth and fourteenth centuries; vernacular retellings of the epic and Puranic stories; Katha literature or story cycles; historical chronicles produced in courts; and devotional poetry.! I will here discuss developments of the patterns discussed earlier in the introduction to an­ cient materials and new developments consequent on the spread of new types of devotion known as Bhakti. Bhakti was a series of movements centered on mystical loving devotion to a 1. For an overview of the literature, see Sukumari Bhattacharji's two books, The Indian Theogony: A Comparative Study ofIndian Mythology from the Vedas to the Puranas (Cam­ bridge: Cambridge University Press, 1970), and History of Classical Sanskrzt Literature (Hyderabad: Orient Longman, 1993).

  • Vedic Way of Cooperation and Universal Brotherhood
    Synopsis The Vedic Way of Cooperation and World Fraternity Prabhu Dayal Mishra Present world is closely confronted by tendencies and habits, which keep humanity divided. It might sometimes appear that there is no solution available for the great void now created among nations, races, religions and sects. There is such an insurmountable distrust, at times hatred and no hope of recovery perceptible that the all scientific achievements and modern knowledge start appearing to be meaningless. People often wonder if the conflicts and restlessness among nations, communities and individuals are not in direct proportion to the increase in the ‘benefits’ brought about by science and technology. The more ardently men and women chase happiness in their individual lives and in the outside world, the further the goal appears to move away from them. This has given rise to widespread frustration deep in the hearts of the individuals, even in the most affluent societies. A growing sense of bewilderment continues to agitate sensitive minds, and the backlash of this disturbing state of affairs can be seen everywhere. After all what is it that makes us slaves of our thoughts, customs or races. Is it so compelling that we cannot get over it? Why is it so sometimes that while fully aware of the rational part of a fact, we are driven away simply by the customs or practices and do not come to accept the universal truth often struggling to establish itself within us? More often than not it is the limitation imposed by the knowledge itself that keeps us bound and we are not prepared to obey the command coming from deep within our selves because it does not seem to be conforming to the frame or structure we have prepared and based on our limited experiences.
