The Search for God

Episode 205 | 57m 38sVideo has Closed Captions

Discussing the search for God, perhaps the oldest of all spiritual quests.

Abrahamic faiths place the concept of “God” as an entity separate from and above man, indigenous peoples understand God or “Creator” as an integral, indivisible aspect of life, or nature. Some non-theistic faiths, such as Buddhism, focus on a transcendent quality or attribute that the Buddha attained. Two teachers from different faiths come together for a discussion on the concept of "God."
