Theosophia traces
the long-hidden esoteric stream of Christian gnostic theosophy,
revealing a "chivalric" religion of the Holy Spirit at the
heart of Christianity. It shows that all three major branches of
Christianity bear within them interrelated esoteric traditions.
A deeply affirmative book, Theosophia introduces wholly unexpected
aspects of Christian tradition. Where mainstream Christianity seems
"anti-nature", Christian theosophy affirms a profound
nature-mysticism; where it seems anti-erotic, theosophy affirms a
powerful religious eroticism; and where it is portrayed as rigidly
patriarchal, theosophy affirms a mysticism founded in the divine Sophia,
the feminine personification of wisdom.
Theosophia reveals hidden dimensions of our spiritual heritage that
speak directly to our current social, ecological, and religious crises.
