Spiritual wisdom for the millions of Americans who are moving away from traditional houses of worship in their quest for God. The fastest growing spiritual movement in the United States today is that of the religiously unaffiliated. These spiritual seekers make up 20 percent of the adult American population; they are the spiritual equivalent of political independents. Refusing to limit themselves to one religion or another, these seekers without borders are open to wisdom wherever it can be found. Perennial Wisdom for the Spiritually Independent is a "bible" for this vast and growing social movement. It weaves sacred texts and teachings from the world's major religions into a coherent exploration of the five core questions at the heart of every religion's search: Who am I? Where did I come from? Where am I going? How shall I live? Why? It couples these sacred teachings with modern commentary designed to help readers use these texts in their daily lives, making Perennial Wisdom for the Spiritually Independent a primer for twentyfirst- century spiritual life.
