This book explores the different aspects of life—its beauty, ugliness, unfairness, tragedy, and darkness. Life doesn't always follow the tit-for-tat rule, and we can't always make a lemonade when it gives us lemons. But we can try to dodge them. The interconnected lives of four Gen-Z people are the same. One is learning to move on and make peace with her suffering; one belongs to a dark place but sees starry dreams and bashing her bad luck in black and blue; one has committed monstrous deeds but has fallen in love and is trying to bring out the beauty from the beast he is; one's own world is messed up but has been entrusted with the fate of the whole world. Read to know: Will Navara save herself from her self-made demons? Will Rubani defeat her destiny and achieve her dreams? Will Avir have a happily ever after with the love of his life despite the monstrous deeds he has committed? Will Nirjar bring apocalypse to the world because her world got messed up because of somebody else? So, dive in and fish out the answers yourself!

This volume provides a comparative philosophical investigation into a particular concept from a variety of angles—in this case, the concept of “miracle.” The text covers deeply philosophical questions around the miracle, with a multiplicity of answers. Each chapter brings its own focus to this multifaceted effort. The volume rejects the primarily western focus that typically dominates philosophy of religion and is filled with particular examples of miracle narratives, community responses, and polemical scenarios across widely varying religious contexts and historical periods. Some of these examples defy religious categorization, and some papers challenge the applicability of the concept “miracle,” which is of western and monotheistic origin. By examining miracles thru a wide comparative context, this text presents a range of descriptive content and analysis, with attention to the audience, to the subjective experiences being communicated, and to the flavor of the narratives that come to surround miracles. This book appeals to students and researchers working in philosophy of religion and science, as well those in comparative religion. It represents, in written form, some of the perspectives and dialogue achieved in The Comparison Project’s 2017–2019 lecture series on miracles. The Comparison Project is an enterprise in comparing a variety of religious voices, allowing them to stand in dialogue.
