Initiation Rites (N/A) - Softcover
The Standing Conference on Inter-Faith Dialogue in Education was formed in 1973 to convene, or encourage the convening of national and regional inter-faith conferences concerned with education in school and community, including religious education, and to circulate or publish reports of the proceedings of findings of those conferences. The conference includes representatives of the Buddhist, Christian, Hindu, Humanist, Jewish, Muslim and Sikh faiths as well as representatives of organizations concerned with inter-faith and race relations. Initiation Rites is one of the first publication to embrace this new tendency and put under one cover the actual words of the essential core of the initiation rites of the main world religions.

Book Description Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Aimed at students and teachers of World Religions, this study analyses the initiation rites of many different faiths and the beliefs underneath them. It produces accurate and broad information for the use of teachers and students of World Faiths, providing an insight into the faith and practise of their neighbours and a greater understanding of how it feels to belong to a culture different from their own. An introductory chapter by Howard Marratt explains the generalities of the initiation rites and how the relationship between the school and the intercultural community that serves should be, and how the teaching of religion cannot alienate the pupils or interfere with the beliefs that they are being brought up with. Living Faiths is a series on Rites of Passage in the major religions of the world, covering Marriage and the Family, Initiation Rites and Death. Together these provide a fascinating exercise in tolerance and understanding. Newly reprinted, this invaluable resource for teachers and students discusses initiation rites of the major world religions. Includes extracts from initiation liturgies, which can be used as source material. Shipping may be from our UK warehouse or from our Australian or US warehouses, depending on stock availability.
