"This book explain the ways in which ALL the world's religions, taken at their core, express the "Perennial Philosophy". He quotes at length from Catholic saints, Martin Luther, the Vedantas, the Tao te Ching, George Fox, the Upanishads, the writings of many Buddhists, and so on. I know I've left some out; I'm not looking at the book as i write, and it has been probably 10 years since I read it last.
Nonetheless, a major formative book for my life, which I discovered when I was 13 or 14 and have been rereading ever since."
"Fascinating anthology of mystical writings and experience from respected writers of all the major faiths. As usual, Huxley displays a prescient sense of religious psychology and how it can tend towards conflict; but he also provides the greatest defense for religion as a completing factor in our lives.
