But the intellectual and spiritual dimension of this interaction has all too often been taken for granted and is never properly explored. Rarely has the dialogue between religion and art been better examined than in this book. In their profound and moving conversations  philosopher of aesthetics Rene Huyghe and Buddhist leader Daisaki Ikeda compare modes of thought from the opposite ends of the earth: from traditions  cultures and religions as different from each other as can be. Their guiding theme is the rediscovery of a common humanity through the artistic intuition and religious impulse shared by all peoples. The Dialogue ranges widely  analysing the contemporary predicament from twin perspectives of beauty and the divine. Huyghe and Ikeda look to active solutions to this predicament - at the key to harmony in life  and at the means of reforming our inner lives. Discussing artistic creativity  its spiritual value  and the differing arts of East and West  the interlocutors conclude by evaluating the crucial role played by religion in helping humanity come to terms with the mysteries and challenges of the unknown.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67924184170549,"sku":"ByrdShop_0834802384","price":100.24,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780834802384.jpg?v=1794130266","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/dawn-after-dark-9780834802384","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
