Publisher's Synopsis
Based on four broadcast talks, this book is the author's attempt to convey the great spiritual truths of religion to the general reader.;Spirituality, the author writes is not to be confused with religiosity or some other-worldly lifetsyle, but it lies at the heart of all religious expression. It is an approach to life that emphasizes the primacy of the inner, mystical world, a world in which there is a sense of coherence, tranquillity and happiness.;This book describes the mystical experience of humanity, painting a picture of the fulfilment awaiting every individual who ventures into the world of the spirit.;In 1921, Evelyn Underhill was Upton Lecturer on the Philosophy of Religion at Manchester College, Oxford, the first woman to give a series of lectures on theology at Oxford. But, it was her writing that brought her an international reputation and a fellowship at King's College for Women. She also wrote "Mysticism".
