Summary
A song in four voices. In this fascinating volume, independent scholar Richard Hooper proves what many have suspected. The great religious traditions have a common spiritual thread. Here are organized hundreds of sayings attributed to Jesus, Buddha, Krishna and Lao Tzu into topics such as, "The Great Way" and "God, Tao and Universal Mind,"and assembles the sayings into four parallel columns for easy reference. Edited from over fifty ancient Christian, Buddhist, Hindu and Taoist texts, The Parallel Sayings demonstrates the common thread that runs through all mystical traditions. The author/editor prefaces each top with an introduction that is insightful and sends a powerful message that will be welcomed by all who seek the truth within, and within their own spiritual tradition.
