Publisher Description: Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Eastern Religions are among the most widely practiced in the world and have recently begun gaining prominence in the west. Although they may differ greatly from the abrahamic faiths which dominate western religion, they share similarities as well. This book introduces you to the major faiths and philosophies of Indian and East Asian religions including Buddhism (in various forms), Hinduism, Taoism and more. Project Webster represents a new publishing paradigm, allowing disparate content sources to be curated into cohesive, relevant, and informative books. To date, this content has been curated from Wikipedia articles and images under Creative Commons licensing, although as Project Webster continues to increase in scope and dimension, more licensed and public domain content is being added. We believe books such as this represent a new and exciting lexicon in the sharing of human knowledge. |
