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is a fully revised translation of the most recent French edition, and contains an extensive appendix with previously unpublished selections from Schuon’s letters and other private writings. Schuon, the foremost representative of the perennialist school of comparative religious thought, writes on the diverse aspects of religion and the spiritual life, dealing with themes such as the diversity of revelations, gnosis, love of God, and the ability to “see God everywhere.” This new edition also features a series of helpful editor’s notes by James S. Cutsinger, a glossary of foreign terms and phrases, and a comprehensive index.
