Spiritual Information is a collection of one hundred
essays that explore a portion of the vast interdisciplinary
approaches to the study of science and religion.
Individually and together, the essays show how the
study of ourselves, our planet, and the universe helps
us understand our place as spiritual beings within
God's universe.
The book is a tribute to Sir John Templeton and
his pioneering commitment toward new research that
results in "one hundredfold more spiritual information
than humankind has ever possessed before." It
begins with essays that reflect on Sir John's principal
domains of interest and expertise: free-enterprisebased
finance and accelerating spiritual progress.
Themes of the sections are:
- Science-Religion Dialogue
- Cosmology, Physics, and Astronomy
- Mathematics, Musicology, and Speculation
- Biological Evolution—the Human Being
- Social Evolution—the Human Mind and Heart
- Religion and Health
- The Nature of the Divine
- Theology and Philosophy
- Faith Traditions
"Sir John's leadership has enabled us to edge evercloser
to the frontier where knowledge meets wisdom
at the threshold of 'ultimate reality,'" notes the editor
in the preface to this volume. As Spiritual Information presents an overview of how far we have come in the
science and religion dialogue, it also opens windows
to the vast possibilities for additional research and
further advances in spiritual information.
