“Religion has no work in justifying the man-made imaginations, hallucinations and delusions of the world. Real religion has to do with reality - empirical one - philosophical one - humane one.”
The prominent neuroscientist Abhijit Naskar has become an icon of harmony and egalitarianism with his conscientious works of science and philosophy. In this book, he tears apart the atrocities of the predominant social perception of religion and delivers a cleaner, more rational and more humane form of genuine religion for the civilized humanity. He has previously garnered wide public interest in the neuropsychology of various religions through his celebrated book series entitled "Neurotheology Series". His recent "Humanism Series" also contains a treatise on religious fundamentalism, entitled "Illusion of Religion", where he has vividly illustrated the neurological origin and global harms of religious fundamentalism.
Abhijit Naskar is not just a scientist - he is the humanitarian scientist of twenty-first century, whose works have been at the forefront of global unification, extending the frontiers of harmony. This book is an attempt of this humanitarian scientist to reveal to the world what true religion looks like - what true religion feels like - what true religion thinks like - what true religion behaves like.
