Preface

This subject of prayer is so important that no body can achieve salvation, liberation or Nirvan without offering proper scriptural prayers to one's Almighty God. The religions may be different, their scripture may be in various languages, and even the people offering prayers may be different, yet the actual real meaning of the prayers offered by them is always the same or similar. I have tried to analyze various prayers of mostly all faiths of the World. And then I quoted them along with some details of each and every faith, their scriptures, their principal beliefs and their way of life, along with the details of their founders with his attributes and teachings. Thus the reader can easily follow the main aims and teachings of each faith. I covered all faiths, which are mainly covered by the Parliament of World Religion in the year 1993 1 addition, some more prayers from the book on Prayers written by swami Satchitanand of Yoga's Ville situated in the State of West Virginia in USA guided me to include other religions.

Thus the book covered mostly all faiths of the world and prayers of all faiths. There are at least some 30 prayers under each Chapter under various headings, which are easy to understand. Finally I analyzed and evaluated various prayers and then tried to find similarities of the way in which they are offered to their Mighty God, I also mentioned some in the prayers offered to God (Chapter XIII). Finally I found some one hundred and nine similarities, which are stated in Chapter XIV of the book. My attendance at the Parliament of World Religions in 1993 helped me to get extensive information from various lectures and association with many saints and professors who delivered lectures during a ten day council met at Chicago in 1993. The bibliography and Glossary of Terms are exhaustive.

Foreword

I have great pleasure to forward the book on "Prayers of All Faiths Of The world" written by Sri Shankerprasad S Bhatt.

Those familiar with the dazzling array of expression of religion and spirituality that can be found around the world are generally also familiar with a kind of conversation that often occurs about the relationship among these distinct expressions.

These are those who speak of unity. Those who see a fundamental and paradigmatic thread of communality that runs through all of the religions and spiritual traditions. Those who might even argue that there is one human spiritual experience, speaking about reflecting on, observing, celebrating and practicing together, what is essentially the same human experience.

Then there are those who speak of harmony. That whether or not there is finally a fundamental 'One' given the variety of human contexts-of history, cultural, language and so on-the experience of that 'One" if it exists is neverthless always varied. But that it is still possible in the mist of diversity, to find ways to sort out what is held in common and to irreducibly different and that on this basis of this kind mutual understand and respect those from different traditions can, as the very least, learn to live in harmony.

What is interesting and I believe, salutary, in this wide-ranging description of religious festivals by my friend Shankerprasad S Bhatt is that there is ample evidence to support both these perspectives in his prodigious compilation, the breadth of his offerings might support the notion of unity, but his attention to detail could also support a viewpoint leaning towards harmony. Whatever the reader's perspective, what will be clear to all is that Shankerprasad's deep respect for spirituality and love of religious expression are to be found on each and very page of his book.
