دانلود کتاب Crossing Boundaries: Essays on the Ethical Status of Mysticism

“Crossing Boundaries” is an important and significant book in the study of religion that addresses the present growing interest in the history, philosophy, and phenomenology of mysticism. The book represents the high level of original, sometimes radical, but responsible thinking about mysticism now being done by the best minds in the subject. What, if anything, does the mystical have to do with the ethical? Why do mystical traditions so often dramatically cross the ethical boundaries set up by a particular society? “Crossing Boundaries” explores critical issues such as these through a series of original essays on the mystical traditions themselves (from Kabbalah to Chinese religion) and on some of the most pressing theoretical issues and theorists (from Bergson to Schuon) of the twentieth-century study of religion.
