The Perennial Philosophy: An Interpretation of the Great Mystics, East and West
Share This
Description
An inspired gathering of
religious writings that reveals the "divine reality" common to all
faiths, collected by Aldous Huxley
"The Perennial
Philosophy," Aldous Huxley writes, "may be found among the
traditional lore of peoples in every region of the world, and in its fully
developed forms it has a place in every one of the higher religions."
With great wit and stunning
intellect -- drawing on a diverse array of faiths, including Zen Buddhism,
Hinduism, Taoism, Christian mysticism, and Islam -- Huxley examines the spiritual
beliefs of various religious traditions and explains how they are united by a
common human yearning to experience the divine. The Perennial Philosophy includes
selections from Meister Eckhart, Rumi, and Lao Tzu, as well as the Bhagavad
Gita, Tibetan Book of the Dead, Diamond Sutra, and Upanishads, among many
others.
