Holy Clues the Gospel According to Sherlock Holmes
- Binding: Paperback
- Publisher: Random House Inc
- Publish date: 07/01/2000
Drawing on the teachings of Christianity, Buddism, and Judaism -- as well as a host of thinkers as varied as Albert Einstein, Ghandi, and Vincent Van Gogh -- Kendrick explores the stories of Sherlock Holmes and finds remarkably prescient religious insights. He shows us the link between careful observation of clues and the Buddhist concept of "Bare Attention". He illuminates the parallel between the groat sleuth's pursuit of justice and God's actions on the scene of the first murder, when Cain slew Abel. And in the detective's open, engaged mind, Kendrick finds a model for uniting the principles of science with a sincere spiritual quest. The result is a book of inspiration for the modern, skeptical searcher -- and an entertaining work that sheds new light on the methods of the world's greatest detective.
