Perennialism

A Study of the Common Ground of Mysticism
Book •
Aldous Huxley's "Perennial Philosophy" explores the common ground shared by various mystical traditions across different cultures and religions.

Huxley argues that these traditions converge on a core set of beliefs about the nature of reality, the human condition, and the path to spiritual enlightenment.

The book delves into the concept of a universal, timeless wisdom that transcends specific doctrines and practices.

It examines the similarities between Eastern mysticism, Sufism, and certain aspects of Christianity, highlighting their shared emphasis on self-transcendence and the importance of spiritual experience.

Huxley's work has significantly influenced the understanding of comparative religion and spirituality.
