Raimon Panikkar: A Companion to his Life and Thought Kindle Edition
by Peter C Phan (Editor), Young-chan Ro (Editor) Format: Kindle Edition
Raimon Panikkar: A Companion to his Life and Thought is a guide to the life, work and thought of Raimon Panikkar, a self-professed Buddhist-Christian-Hindu philosopher and theologian.
A man of deep and wide learning and an extremely prolific author, Panikkar is equally at home in various religious and cultural traditions and embodies in himself the ideals of intercultural, intrareligious, and interreligious dialogues.
This book explicates Panikkar's basic vision of life as the harmonious rhythm of divinity, humanity, and the cosmos, which he terms cosmotheandrism, and shows how it permeates and illumines his articulations of the central Christian doctrines. Given the complexity and difficulty of Panikkar's thought this book is a welcome companion for a course on Panikkar and for a general reader who wishes to understand one of the most profound and orginal thinkers of our time.

"This book is a magnificent set of insider looks at the life of Raimon Panikkar. It is not written to replace comprehensive study of him . . . but to aid in understanding the 'Invisible Harmony' that Panikkar himself embodied." --Yong, Aizaiah, Religious Studies Review, Volume 45, Number 3, Septemer 2019

4.0 out of 5 stars Writers and non-writers alike were once associated with this genius.Reviewed in the United States on August 1, 2019

I thought of writing on Dr. Panikkar, having been associated with his works for over ten years and having been a student of his at U.C.S.B. That is why I liked hearing from his Doctoral students and acquaintances. There are several people like me that revered him and respected him. Those that are not fortunate enough to have become Professors or writers themselves. It is on behalf of these, that I recommend this text. Sincerely Roxann Hopkins
