Description
Description
Theologians, Brahmans, philosophers, mandarins, priests, and doctors have all claimed to rule over wisdom and to hold the keys to a special entry gate to wisdom's dwelling place. But wisdom is not an objective only for these select few. It is our universe, our world, our Mother Earth. It is a true homestead where we can settle down and be ourselves. Where we can have a human relationship with things. It is the art and knowledge of life, and it has a dwelling place both in the human heart and in the entire earth. World-renowned philosopher of religion Raimon Panikkar sees wisdom as all the above and as a source of happiness and joy--a dwelling place where people are blessed. In his book he discusses four major issues: an existential feminine approach to life and knowledge, a catholic and less fragmented anthropology, a recovery of the most ancient meaning of philosophy, and how to preserve one's own identity without being shallow, indifferent or exclusive. He provides a distinctive practical resource for individuals wanting to experience wisdom.
