by Lisa W. Bugayong (Author)
Bugayong hopes to inspire readers of her book to enlarge their perception of God by viewing him as a synthesis of the essential truths from all the major religions, including Judaism, Islam, Christianity, Hinduism, Buddhism, and Taoism. The years between 800 and 200 B.C. were the cradle from which the beginnings of our modern, religious ideas sprung forth. God had burst onto the scene, revealing himself to specific people in various parts of the world. This book assumes that all of these religions were instigated by God, and Bugayong portrays God as too vast to be fully contained in only one religion. She explains in detail how each different religion brings a new perspective of the divine that when collected together creates a wonderfully pluralistic portrait of God.
