Book Review of “Light on the Ancient Worlds”
Foreword to “Language of the Self”
V. Raghavan (1908-1979) wrote this “Foreword” to Frithjof Schuon’s book Language of the Self. It appeared in the first edition in India, and then later in World Wisdom’s 1999 edition. The foreword summarizes Schuon’s perspective in a number of areas as divergent as the transcendent unity of religions, the modern world, metaphysics, and his approach to and appreciation of Hinduism.
The Mystery of the Two Natures
Combining a Socratic and a personal approach, Cutsinger looks to the writings and insights of Frithjof Schuon to examine “how in good conscience can a traditional Christian accept the idea that there is a ‘transcendental unity of religions’?” The author finds answers in a deeper understanding of Christ’s two natures: human and Divine.
