Prayers of the Cosmos (eBook, ePUB)

Reflections on the Original Meaning of Jesus' Words

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

When it was first published two decades ago, Prayers of the Cosmos presented a radically different interpretation of Christ's message - one that has since been supported by many scholars. Author Neil Douglas-Klotz, a prominent authority on Middle Eastern mysticism, argues that whatever Jesus said was said in Aramaic, which implies an entirely different worldview than that of someone who spoke Greek or Latin. This has a tremendous impact on any translation of Jesus's teachings, and reveals a Christ who is a much more mystical, cosmic spiritual leader than might be expected. Newly re-released, Prayers of the Cosmos will be a revelation for anyone seeking to expand their spiritual horizons.

Neil Douglas-Klotz is the Sufi Founder of the worldwide network of the Dances of Universal Peace and co-chair of the Mysticism Group of the American Academy of Religion. He is a world renowned scholar in religious studies, spirituality, and psychology.

"These is no reason to stop at one single phrasing of what Jesus intended his words to mean; they are so rich and resonant that they deserve to be spoken, tasted, rolled around in the mouth, body, and spirit, savored and appreciated for their subtle flavors and rich spiritual nourishment."
