5.0 out of 5 stars
A beautiful piece of literature and religious art!,
By
This review is from: Beads of Faith: Pathways to Meditation and Spirituality Using Rosaries, Prayer Beads and Sacred Words (Paperback)
This is THE book to get if you are remotely interested in prayer beads as a form of prayer and/or crafting. As a Rosary Artisan, I found the book to be vital to my craft (and my spirituality) as it reveals the meanings behind the beads from different cultures and religions. The pictures are stunning, the writing is fluid and beautiful, and the instructions/implementations are user friendly.I highly highly highly recommend this book without any sort of reservation!

This review is from: Beads of Faith: Pathways to Meditation and Spirituality Using Rosaries, Prayer Beads, and Sacred Words (Paperback)
A beautifully designed and illustrated in-depth look at how the tasbeh or rosary (strings of beads employed for counting prayers) is used by devotees of the world's great religions. A splendid compendium of sacred traditions and practices behind the enduring use of beads.
Teachers/Librarians: suitable for enhancing 7th -12th grade - Social Studies/Humanities.

Beads of Faith,
By SBS (Northern California) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Beads of Faith: Pathways to Meditation and Spirituality Using Rosaries, Prayer Beads, and Sacred Words (Paperback)
We welcome Beads of Faith as an addition to other works dedicated to inter-religious dialogue in order to better understand the world's religions in an age where diverse traditions are asked to peacefully coexist. It is through the 'transcendent unity of religions' that an authentic understanding and mutual respect for different spiritual traditions can take place, which this book acknowledges.
