Product Description
Here are distinguished men and women, Jacob Needleman, Father William Johnston, S.J., Lobsang P. Lhalungpa, Lizelle Reymond, Seyyed Hossein Nasr, Dom Aelred Graham, P.I. Travers, and Philippe Lavastine, who appeared as lecturers in San Francisco in the summer of 1973 and in this book are excerpts from the question and answer sessions of their talks. They attempt to address these issues. Has the "spiritual revolution" lost its direction in a profusion of innovations? In our haste to reject outworn religious forms, customs, and ideals, have we overlooked the truths that have guided traditional life and thought since time immemorial? And can the ancient traditions cut through our present confusion and speak anew to Western man's need?
