The essays in this book derive from the Engelsberg Seminar of 2014, and investigate the role which religion plays in society today and in the past. They also explore religion as a phenomenon in relation to the human condition and how it manifests itself as an individual experience. In order to understand ourselves, do we need to understand religion?

Glucklich uses a synthesis of phenomenological and anthropological approaches to study the structure of the imagination that produces such an apparently contradictory worldview, and how that worldview is fashioned from the Hindu attitude toward the body.
