With contributions from spiritual scholars such as William C.
Chittick, Beverly Lanzetta, R. McDermott, and Donald Rothberg, this
discussion proposes a new approach for studying religion,
spirituality, and mysticism: the participatory turn, which holds
that individuals and communities have an integral role to play in
creating distinct but equally legitimate spiritual experiences,
discoveries, and realities. Responding to questions such as "Is
there only one spiritual reality, or many? Are there different
types of spiritual liberation? What is the role of ethics in
interreligious dialogue? "and "How can different religious truths
be evaluated?," this argument demonstrates the validity of every
religion and spiritual tradition without resorting to simplistic
relativisms or conventional reductionism. The first part of the
book situates the participatory turn in the context of contemporary
religious studies, while the second part shows how the approach can
be applied to various global traditions, including Christianity,
Hinduism, Sufism, and socially engaged Buddhism. "Con
contribuciones de eruditos espirituales como William C. Chittick,
Beverly Lanzetta, R. McDermott""y Donald Rothberg, esta discusion
propone un nuevo enfoque para estudiar la religion, la
espiritualidad y el misticismo: el giro participativo, el cual
sostiene que los individuos y las comunidades desempenan un papel
integro en la creacion de experiencias, realizaciones y realidades
espirituales distintas pero igual de legitimas. Abordando preguntas
como "Existe una sola realidad espiritual o muchas? Hay distintos
tipos de liberacion espiritual? Cual es el lugar de la etica en el
dialogo interreligioso? "y "Como se pueden evaluar las verdades
religiosas?," este argumento demuestra la validez de cada religion
y tradicion espiritual sin caer en relativismos simplistas o el
reduccionismo convencional. La primera parte del libro situa el
giro participativo en el contexto de los estudios religiosos
actuales, mientras que la segunda parte explica como este enfoque
se puede aplicar a diversas tradiciones globales, incluyendo el
cristianismo, el hinduismo, el sufismo y el budismo socialmente
consciente."
