Description
The author of "In Mysticism and Morality" explores the question of whether or not mysticism is moral. He looks at different traditions and finds that, in some cases, mysticism does seem to promote moral values.
InMysticism and Morality author Richard Jones explores an often neglected area of comparative religious ethics: mysticism. By addressing a myriad of traditions, both Eastern and Western, Jones explores the question: Is mysticism moral? His discussion of this question takes him through Hinduism, Jainism, varieties of Buddhism, Tantrism, Daoism, and Christianity. Richard Jones's unique work is a salient addition to philosophy of religion, ethics, and religious studies.
