And yet the purpose of this book \"is not so much to give a description of Islam as to explain...why Moslems believe in it.\" Both Westerners unfamiliar with Islam and Moslems seeking a deeper understanding of the basis of faith will be struck by Schuon's masterful elucidation of the spiritual world of Islam. Schuon's foundation is always the intrinsic nature of things rather than any confessional point of view. This perspective opens up new avenues of approach and surprising insights into the \"five pillars\" of faith, the Quran, the Sunna, the Prophet and the esoteric dimension which is the kernel of Moslem spirituality. A hallmark of the author's perspective is an intellectual universality, which, in examining a given religious framework, readily draws upon parallels and concepts from other traditions, especially that of the Vedanta. For \"what is needed in our time, and indeed in every age remote from the origins of Revelation, is...to rediscover the truths written in an eternal script in the very substance of man's spirit.\"","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49514604003601,"sku":"GOR004774147","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":49951402295569,"sku":"CIN0941532240G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":51685877186833,"sku":"GOR009564458","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ VERY_GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":52105636053265,"sku":"CIN0941532240VG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0941532240.jpg?v=1751453636"},{"product_id":"spiritual-perspectives-and-human-facts-book-frithjof-schuon-9781933316420","title":"Spiritual Perspectives and Human Facts","description":"This new edition of Philospher Frithjof Schoun's classic SPIRITUAL PERSPECTIVES \u0026amp; HUMAN FACTS is a fully revised translation of the French edition.

Every poem in this collection - drawn from more than three thousand poems written during the closing years of his life - is a true compass pointing the reader time and again to Schuon's fundamental theme: the Remembrance of God.

Schuon repeatedly traces the journey of a soul which has found its celestial homeland and views the play of this world from the perspective of Eternity. Like the stars these poems strike the reader as both old and new. They echo the primordial melodies of Being and communicate a message of certitude and serenity for every person who longs for spiritual light.    Schuon's poetry which possesses both formal integrity and mystical abandon is the flowering of a soul deeply in love with the Reality of God. His poems are born not from mental effort but from a deep interior vision and he sings of seeing God everywhere in the simple radiant language of one who stands alone before the Creator.

Along with Ananda K. Coomaraswamy and Frithjof Schuon, he reintroduced traditional metaphysics and esoterism into the Western world after a lapse of centuries, and was perhaps the first to present the doctrines of the Vedanta, Taoism, and Sufism not as Eurocentric orientalists or occult fantasts had done, but strictly in their own terms. To the 'mathematical' precision of GuEnon's metaphysics, cosmology, and esoteric history, Frithjof Schuon (1907-1998) added a poetic or 'musical' element, inspired by his close relationship to the Divine Feminine. He also presented the spiritual path as a concrete praxis, involving the spiritual virtues and 'stations of wisdom', that was not so prominent in GuEnon's writings. On the other hand, GuEnon's prophetic eschatology, especially in The Reign of Quantity and the Signs of the Times, as well as his analysis of the 'counter-tradition', gives him a unexpectedly contemporary 'edge' that is perhaps less prominent in Schuon's more aesthetic approach. RenE GuEnon and Frithjof Schuon illuminate each other, both through their unanimity and the specific points where they differ. Each is almost the only means of taking the other's measure. Questions of who was greater, who more traditional, are finally less interesting than the tremendous vision of human reality and spiritual truth that emerges from their shared role as renewers of traditional metaphysics and religious understanding. Schuon, as the younger man, was in a position to compose an evaluation of his early intellectual master, and in view of his long and illustrious career as an author after GuEnon's death, Schuon's central essay RenE GuEnon: Some Observations is also his profoundly appreciative as well as pointedly critical declaration of independence (though simultaneously a declaration of collegiality) from the man who, more than anyone else in the modern world, opened to him a fundamental view of 'principial' reality.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":50011558248721,"sku":"GOR013836416","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51009575125265,"sku":"NIN9780900588853","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52149910241553,"sku":"NLS9780900588853","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0900588853.jpg?v=1750747583"},{"product_id":"prayer-fashions-man-book-frithjof-schuon-9780941532655","title":"Prayer Fashions Man","description":"The great 20th century metaphysician Frithjof Schuon was also a spiritual master familiar with the spiritual struggles of modern seekers.

Simply put this book reveals many answers to those seekers questing for knowledge of what lies behind the reality of our world and more particularly our own human souls.    The book is divided into three sections. The first deals with metaphysics and epistemology the second concerns esoterism and its interpretation of religions and the third focuses on spiritual and moral life. The reader is provided with an intellectual method-in the truest sense-with which to view the profound questions of existence. Then is shown how authentic esoterism approaches the spiritual realisation of these truths and finally is immersed in compelling considerations of human virtue the almost alchemical result of realising those truths.  Schuon writes that people often seek certitude through phenomena of the external world while instead we should be seeking it in our very being. This is where his books have been leading readers for generations to a strong certitude of the realities and purpose of the world and of our own existence. In this and indeed in all his books Schuon leads readers to insights on the roots of the human condition precisely.    Schuon's writings appeal to philosophers students of comparative religion and to spiritual seekers among others. ROOTS OF THE HUMAN CONDITION offers each of these an opportunity to be guided through some of the profoundest human questions by one of the greatest intellects of the 20th century.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50367099666705,"sku":"CIN0941532372G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ WELL_READ \/ SBYB","offer_id":50374204227857,"sku":"CIN0941532372A","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0941532372.jpg?v=1751172014"},{"product_id":"christianity-islam-book-frithjof-schuon-9781933316499","title":"Christianity\/Islam","description":"Schuon's articles on the relationship between Christianity and Islam have profound implications in the field of inter-religious dialogue.

At the core of this wisdom is the Platonic adage Beauty is the splendour of the True which expresses the primordial intimate and inalienable relationship between the Real and the Beautiful.    The essays collected here cover a wide range of subjects including the fundamental principles of spiritual symbolism questions on the afterlife and many invaluable insights concerning the integration of everyday activities into spiritual life. Many today are seeking within traditional wisdom for a holistic viewpoint that can refute the systematic ugliness of the modern world.

His oeuvre of 26 volumes is providential for the modern seeker: pointing ceaselessly to the perennial wisdom found in past cultures ranging from the Shamanistic to the Indian and Chinese, the Hellenic and Judaic, the Christian and Islamic, and including also Alchemy, Hermeticism, and other esoteric currents, at the same time it directs the reader to the deepest level of religious praxis, emphasizing the need for affiliation with a revealed tradition even while acknowledging the final identity of all spiritual paths as they approach the summit of spiritual realization. Traditional Forms and Cosmic Cycles is a wide-ranging collection of articles that could just as well have been called Fragments of an Unknown History. Although they must remain fragments, as Guenon did not return to many of these themes again, it would have been regrettable to leave such fascinating articles buried in old journals, and so this posthumous collection is now offered to Anglophone readers for the first time. The book opens with the key article 'The Doctrine of Cosmic Cycles', followed by two pieces on Atlantis and Hyperborea. Two sections follow, concerned respectively with the Hebrew Tradition and the Egyptian Tradition. The former comprises five articles concerned primarily with the Kabbalah and the Science of Numbers, and the latter includes three articles on Hermes and the Hermetic Tradition. Book reviews are inserted at relevant points. To lend the collection coherence, no other spiritual Traditions are here represented. A list of the Collected Writings of Rene Guenon has been provided for those who wish to investigate Guenon's metaphysical expositions on such topics as Christianity, Islam, the Greco-Latin Traditions, Celtism, etc.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":51009569718545,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51009573454097,"sku":"NIN9780900588174","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52345660637457,"sku":"NLS9780900588174","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/B00741CCZO.jpg?v=1764845401"},{"product_id":"play-of-masks-book-frithjof-schuon-9781936597765","title":"The Play of Masks","description":null,"brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51053881721105,"sku":"NIN9781936597765","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":51216260366609,"sku":"NGR9781936597765","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52336292299025,"sku":"NLS9781936597765","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ VERY_GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":52816919986449,"sku":"CIN1936597764VG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1936597764.jpg?v=1750900825"},{"product_id":"logik-und-transzendenz-book-frithjof-schuon-9783849544195","title":"Logik und Transzendenz","description":"Den Menschen umgibt die schwindelerregende Vielzahl der Erscheinungen; das vollkommene Erkenntnisvermogen besteht darin, die Einheitlichkeit und die Auerlichkeit dieser Erscheinungen in Bezug auf eine alles ubersteigende Einheit und eine geeinte Innerlichkeit wahrzunehmen.

Specific topics include the relationship between Christianity and non Christian religions; the divergence within Christianity between its main branches, Orthodox, Catholic and Protestant; the place of reason and faith in Christianity and their knowledge or gnosis; the principle and application of a mystical exegesis of Scripture; the central dogmas of the Trinity and Incarnation, as well as Eucharistic and Marian doctrine; and Christian initiation, contemplative practice, and, and \"prayer of the heart.\" The volume concludes with a short appendix of previously unpublished material, including samples from Schuon's correspondence with various Christian seekers. Editor's notes, a glossary of foreign terms and a comprehensive index are, also, included to make this volume a very useful tool for students, as well as a rich mine for seekers after the sacred.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":51325731766545,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ VERY_GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":51325734551825,"sku":"CIN0941532585VG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":51527384629521,"sku":"GOR005358078","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":53056640712977,"sku":"NIN9780941532587","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0941532585.jpg?v=1751141212"},{"product_id":"gnosis-book-frithjof-schuon-9781933316185","title":"Gnosis","description":"This new edition of philosopher Frithjof Schuon's classic work, \"Gnosis: Divine Wisdom\", is a fully revised translation of the most recent French edition and contains an extensive appendix with previously unpublished selections from Schuon's letters and other private writings.
