Esoterism as principle and as way: a new translation with selected letters

Frithjof Schuon's perspective of pure esoterism focuses on the inward and universal dimension of religion, also referred to as the sophia perennis ("perennial wisdom").

His works provide invaluable keys to understanding the formal contradictions between the world's religions as well as their transcendent unity.

In Esoterism as Principle and as Way, readers will discover the essential truth that lies at the heart of the world's religions, as well as the role of prayer, virtue, and beauty in the spiritual life.
