For millennia seekers of truth have found God in a handful of sacred texts. Now God's Breath gathers together
selections from seven of the world's major wisdom traditions. The title comes from a Zen saying, "To understand
God is to listen. Listen to Jesus and Muhammad and Buddha, but don't get caught up in the names. Listen beyond
them; listen to God's breath." Elegantly presented with detailed woodcuts and enlightening introductions by
noted scholars, leading thinkers, writers and spiritual teachers including Huston Smith, Karen Armstrong, Reynolds
Price, Stephen Mitchell, Marcus Borg, Joseph Campbell, Carl Jung, the Dalai Lama, and others, the selections include
excerpts from the Book of Genesis, the Tao Te Ching, the Book of Rumi, the Gospel of John, the Bhagavad Gita, the
Qur'an, and the Tibetan Book of the Dead. "A valuable compendium of sacred texts. . . . This is an essential
companion for students of world religions." - Publishers Weekly
