Overview
What are Core Truths? They are the essential wisdom teachings and laws that allow us to live harmoniously with ourselves and with Nature, and encompass not just a vision of ourselves within our environment but also of ourselves in relationship to the wider cosmos. Understanding and working with these truths enhances our lives and all that we do, bringing joy and fulfilment. This richly illustrated work addresses the three basic archetypes of the Wheel of Life, the Chakra system and the Tree of Life. These are the basic patterns expressed not just within Man but also within all Nature.
Description
What are Core Truths? They are the essential wisdom teachings and laws that allow us to live harmoniously with ourselves and with Nature, and encompass not just a vision of ourselves within our environment but also of ourselves in relationship to the wider cosmos. Drawing on the Wisdom traditions of the West, such as the Rosicrucian, Neoplatonic, Hermetic, Magian, Hebraic, Orphic, Classical, Celtic and Christian traditions, Core Truths presents the fundamental truths known to these ancient traditions updated with new discoveries and insights for the world of today. Understanding and working with these truths enhances our lives and all that we do, bringing joy and fulfilment. This richly illustrated work addresses the three basic archetypes of the Wheel of Life, the Chakra system and the Tree of Life. These are the basic patterns expressed not just within Man but also within all Nature. Special beings called Landscape Angels embody these archetypes. They guide our life and model the landscape according to natural patterns and laws. For those seeking the initiatory path to enlightenment, these core truths of perennial wisdom light the way. They help us to understand how to use space and time to the best advantage in our lives and our environment, creating beauty and harmony, and leading to a deep connection and expression of true humanity in both a simple yet comprehensive way.
About the author
Peter is a philosopher, seer, author, teacher, lecturer, and leader of workshops and pilgrimages in many countries of the world. Together with his wife and partner Sarah he runs the Zoence Academy and Mystery School, which is particularly involved with the Western wisdom traditions, mythology, geocosmology and sacred landscape. Peter is also founder-director of the Francis Bacon Research Trust, specialising in research and teaching concerning Bacon, Shakespeare, the Rosicrucians and other philosophers and artists of the Renaissance, which provide a key gateway into the Mystery tradition. Besides regular solar festival seminars, since the 1980s Peter has been giving Wisdom of Shakespeare events, including with the actor-director Mark Rylance at the Shakespeare Globe Theatre in London and elsewhere, and his many publications include a series on the ‘Wisdom of Shakespeare’ in various Shakespeare plays. Since childhood Peter has had a visionary capacity and communication with angels and other spiritual beings, which has developed and increased over the years, and from whom he receives guidance and teaching. He is a pioneer in the discovery (or rediscovery) of landscape temples and landscape angels, and their significance for the world.
