“Angels and Guardians” explores the pervasive belief in angelic beings and spiritual protectors across various religions and spiritual paths. The book highlights how these beliefs fulfill a deep-seated human desire for hope and a connection to something greater, offering solace and guidance. It examines how different faiths, like Judaism, Christianity, and Islam, assign specific roles and duties to angels, such as messengers, protectors, and warriors. It further shows how interpretations of angelic influence vary, raising questions about free will versus divine intervention. The study also traces the historical evolution of angelic figures from ancient Mesopotamian roots to their significant presence in Abrahamic religions. The book acknowledges similar protector figures in other traditions like Hinduism and Buddhism, highlighting the universality of the desire for spiritual support. Beginning with an introduction to the concept of angels, the book progresses to examining their historical development and theological interpretations, and culminates in a discussion of the practical implications of believing in angels for prayer, meditation, and overall spiritual well-being.
