| Summary: | In a busy western world, the essential truths of religious tradition are often forgotten or ignored. Whilst preserving the essential unity of all religions, traditionalism is concerned with the preserving of particular forms which gave religion its raison d' etre, while at the same time ensuring its spiritual efficacy. Oldmeadow also considers many other influential writers: Titus Burckhardt, Marco Pallis, Martin Lings, Whitall Perry, Seyyed Hosein Nasr. |
