Description
1887. It has been wisely said that, to understand any solitary religion, two, at least, must be studied. This seems essentially important when the religion is Eastern, and the student has been educated in the West. There is a tendency in the human mind to explain to itself that which is remote by that which is familiar. The Western mind is logical, matter of fact, impatient of symbolism. And yet, Christianity is an Asiatic religion, and all Asiatics tell us that symbolism is the only language by which the facts of the spiritual world can be treated. Partial Contents: Object of ancient scriptures; Double annunciation; Homage of the Idols; Buddha's great renunciation; The Nazarite; Mystical Israel; Buddhism and the Kabbalah; The Baptist; Jesus and the Baptist; Growth in Spirit; Signs of an Apostle; Essenism in the Bible; Christianity and Buddhism; Ritual; How did Buddhism reach the West? Zodiacal interpretation of the story.
