| 520 | |a This volume discusses the notion of a spiritual master and looks at examples in a variety of world religions. What is a spiritual master? This book offers an important contribution to religious studies by addressing that question in the context of such themes as charismatic authority, role models, symbolism, and categories of religious perception. The book contains essays by scholar-practitioners on the topic of spiritual masters in Judaic, Christian, Islamic, Hindu, Sikh, Buddhist, Confucian, and Daoist traditions. It provides a full spectrum of exemplars, including founders, spiritual masters that highlight cultural themes, and problematic figures of modern times. To define spiritual master, the works of Max Weber, Mircea Eliade, Daniel Gold, and Bruce Lincoln are referenced to provide a balanced notion that includes both religionist and reductionist perspectives. This book takes readers from the past spiritual masters to the future of masters of any sort, posing food for thought about the future of master-disciple relationships in an emerging age of egalitarian sentiments. | ||
