Resumen del Editor
No person today is untouched by what happens in the rest of the world. With this historic development, the Dalai Lama understands that the essential task of humanity is to cultivate peaceful coexistence. But this has long been problematic with religion, and while previous conflicts over religious differences may have been significant, they did not threaten the very survival of humanity. Now, when extremists have access to powerful technologies, a single spark could ignite a powder keg of frightening proportions.
Yet the Dalai Lama shows how the challenges of globalization can also move us in another direction, to a deeper plane where nations, cultures, and individuals connect through their shared human nature. All major religions confront the same perennial questions; each has distinct forms of expression. But this marvelous diversity of insight has the potential for inspiring dialogue that can enrich everyone’s pursuit of wisdom.
Toward a True Kinship of Faiths explores where differences between religions can be genuinely appreciated without serving as sources of conflict, as well as offers a hopeful yet realistic look at how humanity must step into the future.

Historia
Many Christians today tend to view the story of medieval faith as a cautionary tale. Too often, they dismiss the Middle Ages as a period of corruption and decay in the church. They seem to assume that the church apostatized from true Christianity after it gained cultural influence in the time of Constantine, and that the faith was only later recovered by the 16th-century Reformers or even the 18th-century revivalists. As a result, the riches and wisdom of the medieval period have remained largely inaccessible to modern Protestants.

Historia
As the practice of mindfulness permeates mainstream western culture, more and more people are engaging in a traditional form of Buddhist meditation. However, many of these people have little interest in the religious aspects of Buddhism, and the practice occurs within secular contexts such as hospitals, schools, and the workplace. Is it possible to recover from the Buddhist teachings a vision of human flourishing that is secular rather than religious without compromising the integrity of the tradition?

Historia
Moving from the Paleolithic age to the present, Karen Armstrong details the great lengths to which humankind has gone in order to experience a sacred reality that it called by many names, such as God, Brahman, Nirvana, Allah, or Dao. Focusing especially on Christianity but including Judaism, Islam, Buddhism, Hinduism, and Chinese spiritualities, Armstrong examines the diminished impulse toward religion in our own time, when a significant number of people either want nothing to do with God or question the efficacy of faith. Why has God become unbelievable?

Historia
Meister Eckhart was a medieval Christian mystic whose wisdom powerfully appeals to seekers seven centuries after his death. In the modern era, Eckhart's writings have struck a chord with thinkers as diverse as Heidegger, Merton, Sartre, John Paul II, and the current Dalai Lama. He is the inspiration for the best-selling New Age author Eckhart Tolle's pen name, and his 14th-century quotes have become an online sensation. Today, a variety of Christians, as well as many Zen Buddhists, Sufi Muslims, Jewish Cabbalists, and various spiritual seekers, all claim Eckhart as their own.

Historia
World-renowned Jesus scholar Marcus J. Borg shows how we can live passionately as Christians in today's world by practicing the vital elements of Christian faith. For the millions of people who have turned away from many traditional beliefs about God, Jesus, and the Bible, but still long for a relevant, nourishing faith, Borg shows why the Christian life can remain a transforming relationship with God. Emphasizing the critical role of daily practice in living the Christian life, he explores how prayer, worship, Sabbath, pilgrimage, and more can be experienced as authentically life-giving practices.

Nearly a decade after Spain's conquest of Mexico, the future of Christianity on the American continent was very much in doubt. Confronted with a hostile colonial government and Native Americans wary of conversion, the newly-appointed bishop-elect of Mexico wrote to tell the King of Spain that, unless there was a miracle, the continent would be lost.

Historia
Francis of Assisi is one of the most beloved of all saints. Both traditional and entirely revolutionary, he was a paradox. He was at once down-to-earth and reaching toward heaven, grounded in the rich history of the Church while moving toward a new understanding of the world beyond. Franciscan Father Richard Rohr helps us look beyond the birdbath image of the saint to remind us of the long tradition founded on Francis' revolutionary, radical, and life-changing embrace of the teachings of Jesus.

The co-editors of Gnosis magazine explore the many esoteric traditions that Western culture has to offer. While terms from Eastern spiritual practices such as Zen, mantra, and karma have become part of our daily lexicon, the traditions of Western spirituality have been largely unexplored by people searching for non-mainstream routes to spiritual experience. But for those who identify with Western culture, Western religious traditions have their own wisdom teachings that are more suitable to their needs and expectations.

The question-and-answer format makes this introduction to Zen especially easy to understand - and also to use as a reference, as you can easily look up just the question you had in mind. The esteemed Zen teacher Norman Fischer and his old friend and teaching colleague Susan Moon (both of them in the lineage of Shunryu Suzuki, author of Zen Mind, Beginner's Mind) give this collaborative effort a playful tone: Susan asks a question on our behalf, Norman answers it, and then Sue challenges him.

A provocative and positive response to Christopher Hitchens, Sam Harris, Richard Dawkins, and other New Atheists, Good Without God makes a bold claim for what nonbelievers do share and believe. Epstein's Good Without God provides a constructive, challenging response to these manifestos by getting to the heart of Humanism and its positive belief in tolerance, community, morality, and good without having to rely on the guidance of a higher being.

Andrew Skilton - Senior Research Fellow in Buddhist Studies, Kings College, London - explains the development of the basic concepts of Buddhism and its spread across the continents during its 2,500 years of history. He begins with a close look at Buddhism in India, where it flourished until the 12th/13th century CE, charting the growth of different schools and practices. By the time it disappeared from its homeland midway through the millennium, it had become established in Central Asia and the Far East in a variety of forms.

Twenty-seven years ago, Matthieu Ricard gave up a promising career as a scientist to study Tibetan Buddhism - not as a detached observer but by immersing himself in its practice under the guidance of its greatest living masters. Years later, this project was born, and Richard met with his father, Jean-Francois Revel - a French philosopher who became world famous for his challenges to both Communism and Christianity. At an inn, these two profoundly thoughtful men explored questions that have occupied humankind throughout its history.

Realistic, hopeful and inspirational.
This beautiful piece by His Holiness inspired me and touched me to my core. Although Richard Gere is monotonic sometimes , overall he read this work with heart. Recommended for seekers everywhere.

The best book ever written
I wish everyone could read this book. His Holiness is so inclusive and deeply compassionate that his message reaches to all of us -- people with different religious beliefs or no beliefs. Each of us has a role to play in reducing conflict, caring for our world and helping our fellow suffering beings.

Please Listen to This Book
In less than two weeks I have listened to "Toward a True Kinship of Faiths" three times and have learned something new each time. This is without question the best talk on comparative theology I have ever heard anywhere. My life has been dramatically improved by the well researched and skillfully explained concepts this book contains.

Very good
This book contains an overview of the worlds major religions by a man who is not only a master of his own tradition, but has sincerely embraced the essence of many other traditions. Often speaking form personal experience, the Dalai Lama makes interesting and inspiring comparisons between the worlds religions (including atheism) and also speaks to their differences.
He also discusses obstacles to inter-religious understanding including the particular problem of exclusivity and fundamentalism.
Mr. Gere's narration was exceptional.

someone help Richard Gere's pronunciation/
another excellent book from HH the Dalai Lama/ a much needed discussion on world religions and the need for them to join together rather than be at odds with each other/
however, where was the director to assist Richard Gere--he mangles too many Indian names and places/ his reading is--- alright but not inspiring/ and he doesn't mutilate too often nor too badly/
thus it is not too painful to listen and i do enjoy it and am learning/

Really gives World Peace a Chance!
Would you listen to Toward a True Kinship of Faiths again? Why?
I am currently on my second read of this important book; there is a lot of material contained in this book and there are a lot of exotic names concepts and places mentioned and it is too hard to remember them all in one reading.
What did you like best about this story?
I enjoyed hearing the life story of the Dalai Lama, as well as his diagnosis of the world's religious problems and I feel as though he offers a very rational, compassionate, and workable set of solutions towards solving the world's problems using existing religious institutions in a unified approach which could actually work.
Have you listened to any of Richard Gere’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
I must admit that hearing the Dalai Lama's life story narrated in first person by Richard Gere threw me for a loop after the first few sentences, but once I adjusted to hearing Richard's voice while picturing the Dalai Lama working with a translator, I was able to easily transcend the initial mind warp. Richard Gere has a very good reading voice and he is very easy to comprehend, so he does an excellent job.
If you were to make a film of this book, what would be the tag line be?
World Peace - not just a corny wish at a Beauty Pageant
Any additional comments?
This book has inspired me to do my part toward building world peace.

ONE OF THE BEST
This is undoubtedly one of the best if not the best book I have read on the subject.
I ordered the book, so I can easily refer to the different religions.
The narrator is excellent.
If you are interested in the subject, do not hesitate.
My thanks again to Audible to make this book available, JK.
