The Way of Divine Union

Beschreibung

"The Way of Divine Union is the crown of all the counsels...." The Way of Divine Union is the Way of the Mystical Quest, and the Mystical End is an old title for the attained Union. Now, the name of Mysticism and the denomination of Mystic have passed through various undesirable ordeals in their comparatively brief history; yet they are terms which-in modem times-have been used to distinguish the highest method and object of the research which it entered into the heart of man to conceive or follow, and not only those disciples of the path who have embraced the method, but those who have reached its object(from the first chapter). This is the classic study of mysticism by the revered trailblazer of modern occultism, now available once again from Golem Media.

Autor

Arthur Edward Waite (1857-1942) was a British scholarly mystic and poet, born in Brooklyn, New York. He was raised in England and educated at a small private school in London. After his sister's death in 1874, he began psychical research and started reading into esoterism. In January 1891, Waite joined the Outer Order of the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn. He's best known for his co-creation of the Rider-Waite Tarot deck, which was first published in 1910. Waite also wrote multiple books on the occult, such as the 1923 guide, The Occult Sciences - A Compendium of Transcendental Doctrine and Experiment.
