Belonging to God: Science, Spirituality & a Universal Path of Divine Love
A breathtaking exploration of divine love across religions, illuminated equally by modern science and ancient wisdom.
Combining decades of Eastern and Western contemplative practice with scientific research, William Keepin, PhD, offers a way forward for anyone who yearns for an inclusive spirituality that can encompass both deep intellectual inquiry and devotional abandon of the heart.
In-depth yet accessible, grounded yet uplifting, this journey across faith traditions illuminates commonalities in the scriptures, writings of key mystics and core practices of Christianity, Islam, and Hinduism, and draws on the wisdom of other traditions as well. It will inspire seekers of all faiths interested in the path of love that bridges world religions, as well as believers who are eager to learn how their particular faith intersects with other religions on the deepest level.
