In the Mongol Empire, the interfaith court provided a contested arena for a performance of the Mongol ruler’s sacred kingship, and the debate was fiercely ideological and religious. At the court of the newly established Ilkhanate, Muslim administrators, Buddhist monks, and Christian clergy all attempted to sway their imperial overlords, arguing fiercely over the proper role of the king and his government, with momentous and far-reaching consequences. Focusing on the famous but understudied figure of the grand vizier Rashid al-Din, a Persian Jew who converted to Islam, Jonathan Z. Brack explores the myriad ways Rashid al-Din and his fellow courtiers investigated, reformulated, and transformed long-standing ideas of authority and power. Out of this intellectual ferment of accommodation, resistance, and experimentation, they developed a completely new understanding of sacred kingship. This new ideal, and the political theology it subtends, would go on to become a central justification in imperial projects across Eurasia in the centuries that followed. An Afterlife for the Khan offers a powerful cultural and intellectual history of this pivotal moment for Islam and empire in the Middle East and Asia.

I'm creating this book because of the society I live in, which allows for the adjustment of anything. However, our culture was beautiful because of the presence of religious beliefs. However, those in positions of authority and wealthy families take advantage of that at the same time. By comparing one religion to another, people are taught to hate one another and to lead normal men in the wrong directions in society. When one religion hates another, that creates a hateful religion. I'm penning that book since every faith is admirable and rich in culture. And everyone treats one another with respect based on common decency rather than religion, we had that thought while having different families yet the same hearts.

The creator of the world’s greatest empire is one of history’s immortals. He is also at the heart of one of the greatest mysteries -- how and where was he buried? Its solution might, conceivably, reveal a treasure on a scale not seen since the discovery of Tutankhamen’s tomb.

It's about soul and eternity. For me both soul and eternity are the same as it never dies and whenever someone gets to it, it became part of his soul. We could all get the eternity if we could drink the elixir of life from fountain of peace and humanity. All of us can get it by just bending a little and drying out the tear drops from one's eyes. I have written this book for your realization about soul and it's eternity, may our souls can get eternity, Amen. Little introduction of what i have written in this book is as follows, MEANING OF GOD: Sometimes it's not about believing but the real thing is about knowing the meaning. When you don't know the meaning of God the most meaningful thing on this world than how can you believe him, read this story to start believing. AS I LIVED MY TWENTY FIVE: Twenty five is the age when a man comes to its own. These are the years which you miss, laugh and talk about in the next 25 years of your life. May most of us find what I have found after my twenty five. SOUL OF ETERNITY: Which religion is the right path? Sometimes that's come into our mind and you choose the path of humanity, which leads your soul to eternity by finding the very soul of eternity. IT'S A DIVINE GAME ON EARTH THEY FALSELY PLAY: Men of God do not need any wealth of this world, but we are always fooled by these persons who claimed to be the men of God and actually take us away from the real message of God. Listen to yourself, may be in your heart you can find your own divine game. PAST AFTERLIFE: We all should live our lives by having in mind the consequent afterlife it may result, but if the life is like afterlife than what's the point of passing it under rules of living when it is already passed or will never be passed.

This text is a timely and wide-ranging study providing essential background to the development of global modernity through the European encounter with China. Considering differing notions of peace, empire, trade, religion, and diplomacy as touchstones in the relations between China and Europe on mutuality, the book examines five encounters with France, Portugal, Holland, the pope, and Russia between 1248 and 1720, and reflects on concepts that the West took for granted but which did not successfully cross over into the Chinese world. This cutting edge text provides key insights into the cultural and political conflict which lay at the heart of early Chinese-European relations, as the West's understanding of the truth and appropriateness of its cultural norms was confronted by China's norms and beliefs.

Because every single one of us will die, most of us would like to know what—if anything—awaits us afterward, not to mention the fate of lost loved ones. Given the nearly universal vested interest in deciding this question in favor of an afterlife, it is no surprise that the vast majority of books on the topic affirm the reality of life after death without a backward glance. But the evidence of our senses and the ever-gaining strength of scientific evidence strongly suggest otherwise. In The Myth of an Afterlife: The Case against Life after Death, Michael Martin and Keith Augustine collect a series of contributions that redress this imbalance in the literature by providing a strong, comprehensive, and up-to-date casebook of the chief arguments against an afterlife. Divided into four separate sections, this collection opens with a broad overview of the issues, as contributors consider the strongest evidence of whether or not we survive death—in particular the biological basis of all mental states and their grounding in brain activity that ceases to function at death. Next, contributors consider a host of conceptual and empirical difficulties that confront the various ways of “surviving” death—from bodiless minds to bodily resurrection to any form of posthumous survival. Then essayists turn to internal inconsistencies between traditional theological conceptions of an afterlife—heaven, hell, karmic rebirth—and widely held ethical principles central to the belief systems supporting those notions. In the final section, authors offer critical evaluations of the main types of evidence for an afterlife. Fully interdisciplinary, The Myth of an Afterlife: The Case against Life after Death brings together a variety of fields of research to make that case, including cognitiveneuroscience, philosophy of mind, personal identity, philosophy of religion, moralphilosophy, psychical research, and anomalistic psychology. As the definitive casebookof arguments against life after death, this collection is required reading for anyinstructor, researcher, and student of philosophy, religious studies, or theology. It issure to raise provocative issues new to readers, regardless of background, from thosewho believe fervently in the reality of an afterlife to those who do not or are undecidedon the matter.
