AHIMSA Literature

Dimensions of Unity
Dialogues of Spirituality, Science, and Society

These dialogues of talks and writings on themes of spirituality, science and society are from our AHIMSA events during the first ten years, 1993-2003.

This book is arranged around four major themes that we have addressed over these 10 years. The essays include articles from our Journal, Ahimsa Voices, including new, expanded, and re-grouped papers. The Themes are:
Part 1: Ahimsa and himsa (non-violence and violence)
Part 2: Consciousness, Science, and Spirit
Part 3: Entering the Self: Art, Mysticism, and Gender
Part 4: Society, Technology, and Spirit

The essays in each section are arranged to evoke dialogue and discussion, as well as to encourage reflection on the spiritual dimensions of the topics.

Dimensions of Unity Includes talks and essays authored by:

Huston Smith, Author of The World's Religions
Swami Prabuddhananda, Head of the Vedanta Society of Northern California
Marian Diamond, Professor of Integrative Biology and author of Magic Trees of the Mind
Michael Nagler, founder of the Peace and Conflict Study Program, U. C. Berkeley, and Author of Is There No Other Way?: The Search for a Nonviolent Future
