Presents and illustrates many concepts and distinctions essential to metaphysics, anthropology, and religious phenomology. |
| Synopsis: |
The content of religions and their reason for being is the relationship between God and man...The diversity of religions results from the diversity of the possibilities comprised in the relationship between God and man; and this relationship is both unique and innumerable. The leitmotif of Schuon's corpus has been described as the religio perennis - the permanent link (religio) that is both natural and supernatural between God and man the Necessary and the possible. This book presents and illustrates many concepts and distinctions essential to metaphysics anthropology and religious phenomenology such as intellect-reason metaphysics-theology esoterism-exoterism and the concept of religious archetypes. The chapter entitled Atma-Maya is a succinct masterpiece on the degrees of Being as well as the relationship of metaphysics to cosmology. |
