World Wisdom
The Library of Perennial Philosophy
The Library of Perennial Philosophy is dedicated to the exposition of the timeless
Truth underlying the diverse religions. This Truth, often referred to as the Sophia
Perennis —or Perennial Wisdom—finds its expression in the revealed Scriptures as
well as the writings of the great sages and the artistic creations of the traditional
worlds.
The Underlying Religion: An Introduction to the Perennial Philosophy appears as
one of our selections in the Perennial Philosophy series.
The Perennial Philosophy Series
In the beginning of the twentieth century, a school of thought arose which
has focused on the enunciation and explanation of the Perennial Philosophy.
Deeply rooted in the sense of the sacred, the writings of its leading exponents
establish an indispensable foundation for understanding the timeless Truth and
spiritual practices which live in the heart of all religions. Some of these titles
are companion volumes to the Treasures of the World’s Religions series, which
allows a comparison of the writings of the great sages of the past with the
perennialist authors of our time.
