| Summary, etc. |
The Garden of Reality addresses urgent questions around the relativity of religious truth, religious pluralism, transreligious discourse, postmodern philosophical cosmology, and multireligious mysticism. The aim of this transreligious approach is to contribute to current matters of relativism and pluralism, whether religious or philosophical, as well as to the prospect of multireligious peace and its inevitability for a peaceful society of the future in an ecological and cosmic context. The thesis of this book is that the future of humanity is bound to conviviality by the deepest motives for its existence together and with the Earth in peace and that the deepest religious motivations of existing together are relative to one another. The insight into the transreligious relativity of religious motivations, experiences, conceptualities, and truths is essential not only to the survival of humanity, but to the conviction of religions that their religious motivations, experiences, conceptualities, and truths are meaningful, real, coherent, and true. By engaging diverse streams of thought from poststructuralist voices to mysticisms of different religious traditions, such as Sufism, Dzogchen, and philosophical Daoism, as well as selective theological and philosophical conceptual frameworks of Christianity and Hinduism, mystical and postmodern cosmology and current considerations of cosmopolitanism, and diverse contemporary interreligious and interspiritual discourses, but especially as of yet undeservedly understudied contributions of process thought and the Baha'i religion, this book wants to demonstrate that multireligious conviviality must listen to the universal relevance of a multiplicity of minority voices. In proposing polyphilic pluralism, the mutual immanence and co-creative nature of religions and spiritualities of and with the divine or ultimate reality and its universal in-sistence in the cosmos are affirmed. By embracing a relativistic and evolutionary paradigm in an infinite cosmos of creative becoming, religions will be suggested to cope with the fact that events of novelty disturb and connect, transcend and contrast, the continuum of religious motivations and truth claims, but that this process must not lead to religious conflict, as religious diversity is enveloped by a diverse and ever-new folded landscape of ultimate reality. |
