TOUCHSTONES OF THE SPIRIT explores three general themes: the timeless messages of Tradition; the obscuration of this perennial wisdom in the modern world and the spiritual intercourse between East and West which holds out some hope that we may yet recover something of what we have lost. Amongst this wide-ranging collection are essays on metaphysical and cosmological doctrines of the East, the spiritual heritage of the Australian Aborigines, the reigning ideologies of modernity and on several key figures in the East-West encounter including Frithjof Schuon, Ananda Coomaraswamy, Abhishiktananda and Huston Smith.
