Edited by Harry Oldmeadow
Provides insightful answers to age-old religious and philosophical questions such as predestination and free will, the reason for evil, and the meaning of eternity in heaven and hell. This edition contains selections from Schuon's private writings, helpful editor's notes, an extensive glossary of foreign terms and phrases, and an index.
“Intellectually rigorous in the highest degree, this newest work of Schuon continues the doctrinal focus of his earlier books, moving from a Vedantic to a Platonic to a Christian to an Islamic to a Buddhist perspective with ease. . . . There is no other voice like that of Schuon.”—Arthur Versluis, Michigan State University, author of Theosophia and Wisdom’s Children
