Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. Drawing upon a wide range of ancient sources as well as contemporary scholarly research this ground-breaking book reveals the astonishing continuity and the historical transformation of spiritual patterns from the Assyrian and Babylonian to the Islamic civilization. It argues that in Sufism the main metaphysical content of ancient wisdom can be shown to have been preserved and reinterpreted in accordance with Quranic revelation, following the pattern of prevailing monotheistic Jewish, Christian, and Islamic mythologies. Such motifs include the Divine covenant and human kingship, Lordship and servant hood, holy war and the return to primordial integrity. Recurring myths and rituals of cosmogony and eschatology, of ontological irradiation and spiritual deconstruction, constitute a dialectical play which re-appear in the context of Sufism, that is, in the context of traditional Islamic piety and sacred rites. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…

Encuadernación de tapa dura. Condition: Nuevo. MEMORIA MUNDI Este libro es un abierto desafío a la visión de la filosofía que impera en nuestra cultura desde el siglo xviii, centrada en el razonamiento lógico y el mundo temporal. Algis Udavinys se remonta a las raíces de la philosophía, cuya vía más antigua, basada en patrones arquetípicos, se sustentaba en una serie de ejercicios espirituales para fundir la mente con los grandes misterios divinos de la existencia, lo que producía en el iniciado una total transformación interior, o renacimiento. Como señalan numerosas evidencias históricas, la filosofía griega fue desarrollándose en el transcurso de toda la Antigüedad a partir de la tradición egipcia. Los más grandes sabios helenos aprendieron de los sacerdotes egipcios a mantener la pureza e integridad interior, así como a restaurar en su espíritu la imago dei a través de ciertas ceremonias. Esta íntima conexión entre la alta cultura del antiguo Egipto y la filosofía griega, puesta de relieve por las enseñanzas de los neoplatónicos tardíos, nos hace tomar en consideración el concepto universal de filosofía perenne, que, como dice Thomas Taylor, permaneció oculto durante siglos pero será restaurado para florecer de nuevo por un largo período.
