| Description: |
In The Book of Keys, editor Joseph Patrick has compiled a selection of nearly 200 previously unpublished private texts on the spiritual life by philosopher Frithjof Schuon, the leading exponent of the traditionalist or perennialist perspective. |
| Synopsis: |
THE BOOK OF KEYS, more than any work of Frithjof Schuon, most directly represents his own teachings on the inner life. These texts were addressed to people of varied religious backgrounds, but they all convey Mr. Schuon's wisdom and personal experience of universal spiritual truths. Everyone who humbly seeks greater knowledge of Divine Realities will find here something that makes his or her search surer or more profound or more joyful. The book begins with an extensive introduction by Michael Oren Fitzgerald. The introduction helps readers new to the writings of Frithjof Schuon, as well as those already familiar with his writings, situate this remarkable body of work within the Perennialist or Traditionalist school, as well as to understand details of Schuon's life and thought that have remained mysterious or perplexing to those who did not know him. Although some of these texts may contain terminology from comparative religion or metaphysics, they are very special within the context of Schuon's complete body of work, no less so than his many volumes of poetry.These texts are direct words of counsel on how to open one's soul to God as Transcendent Reality and Immanent Presence, and how to conform to what it is that God wants of us as beings created in His image. |
