Description

A Comparative Study: Ethical Perceptions of World Religions-(Hinduism, Buddhism, (Christianity, Islam and Sikhism) deals with an extremely important aspect of religion viz. Ethics. Probably this is the first written book, written so far, on this subject.

The book present correct interpretation of religion and comprehensive description of the holy scriptures of these religions. The book states truly that religion is the finest means for the civilization of man. The author is right in holding that religion teaches mutual love, peace, harmony and devotion to God.

Misunderstood religion creates mutual hate and division of humanity and consequent alienation of the man from God. The book also deals with difficult but most important topics like Concept of Sin, Social Equality, Universal Brotherhood, Status of Woman, Pride, Altruism, Justice and Courage.
