for your intellectual journey through spiritual and religious history. Raising several, sometimes controversial questions, and introducing little discussed, and often times, little known facts about religion. This work was originally a composition and compilation of notes, thoughts and philosophies, these are some of the religious and spiritual belief systems that I have studied throughout my life. My goal for this book was to spark questions and dialogue about what you think you don’t know and what you think you know. The point of this collection of information, is to broaden the viewpoints, add to the knowledge base of the reader, and to raise questions that don’t always get raised.
Primarily this book can be used as sort of a study guide, taking the terminology and vocabulary used in this work and using them as a starting point for your own quest for knowledge.

“Ancient faiths and traditions were very sacred to the original devotees to these thought processes. Obviously, these beliefs and cultures had to be preserved. Oral history is how most traditions around the world were originally kept. One can just imagine, an old grandmother with a granddaughter at her feet, and her baby grandson on her lap. The fire burning, keeping them warm in the night air, as she rocks slowly, telling them stories of when she was young. This is how the Twa of Southern Africa, the Native Americans, and the ancient Cushites among many others passed along the first spiritual beliefs and practices, probably some good recipes too.”
