Veliki posvećenici
Edouard Schuré, in this legendary book, sketches the secret history of religions. The great devotees are a work whose glory has never dimmed.
Through new synthetic thinking about the visible and invisible world, bringing Science and Religion closer, the author tries to reach the truth and common Source, which is, he believes, at the base of all great religions and holy books of all peoples of the world.
Great devotees knew the truth, lived only for their idea and were ready to die for it. They brought the vision, the ideals of light and faith to the world, on which humanity can build the future. Thus, in the light of esoteric secret teachings, the lives and messages of Rama, Krishna, Hermes, Moses, Orpheus, Pythagoras, Plato and Jesus are analyzed and interpreted here, each of whom, in their own time and in a specific cultural and civilizational climate, carried the light of truth throughout the world and spread fruitful wisdom.
Each of these great Initiates, Rama, Krishna, Hermes, Moses, Orpheus, Pythagoras, Plato and Jesus, represent one of the great religions that contributed to the constitution of humanity, leaving behind disciples, rites of initiation, as well as legends.
From Brahminical initiation to the mysteries of Egypt, from the mission of Israel to the mission of Christ, from the myth of Orpheus to the mysteries of Eleusis, it is a journey into the most distant esoteric tradition that this great writer invites us to, where science and religion are forever reconciled.
