Hallo netlanders, bhaiyon and beheno - 

I would like to  find out more  about Islam, it's  development and The
Holy Quran. I am  particularly interested in any  writings on the need
for  religion in  day  to  day life, the  greater question  of a whole
unifying truth that pervades the existence of all beings, why, whether
and where God exists,  the concept of rebirth (  pardon me for reeling
off questions i  myself do not  understand very well  )  - and how all
these questions find their  answers in Islam and in  a true Muslim way
of life.

I am interested in all kinds of documents, translations or otherwise,
written by people from any part of the world - that would help me
learn more about the answers (as pointed to by Islam) to such questions
some of us ask ourselves. I would also like to learn more about the 
various sects (Sufis, Ahmadiyas ?) that emerged from traditional Islam and
their approaches to similar puzzles. 

Please email responses to ghosh@cs.yale.edu . Warmest thanks in advance.

Khuda Hafiz.

- bhashu.
