Tekst achterflap

The three volumes of Boris Mouravieff's Gnosis describe the inner doctrines of Eastern Christianity: Volume I the exoteric teaching, this Volume (II) the practical or mesoteric teaching, and Volume III the truly esoteric. Gnosis does more than simply explore the mysterious relation between the 'Fourth Way' and the little known 'Royal Way' of Eastern Orthodoxy; it forms a modern primer in the knowledge tradition of the early church, and gives practical instruction in methods of spirituality for serious seekers. After escaping the Russian revolution and the Nazi occupation of France, Mouravieff taught these doctrines in language compatible with modern thought at Geneva University. These three books agree to a high degree with the teachings of the early fathers of the church, as well as with the inner teachings of all religions.
