Abstract

A new paradigm is necessary to understand religions in contemporary context. Religion should be treated and interpreted as a dynamic force to develop intercultural understanding and to bridge diverse communities for resolving conflicts and living in peace and mutual respect. It should be conducted by entering scientific endeavor to discover alternative understanding of religion. Through this devotion, a “new-world” of religious understanding is hoped to be created on the same plains, seas, forests, mountains, skies, and stars of the “old-world” of religious texts or discourses which are viewed and treated by different. And human being will embrace a “new-religion” with God, sacred scriptures, prophets, and rituals of “old-religion” which are approached and believed by different.
