The
Monograph
Renaissance of Wisdom
The centerpiece of the »Renaissance of Wisdom« project
will be the publication of a monograph in 2008.
It will be a detailed, well-documented work in full color presenting a
comprehensive understanding of all aspects
of wisdom.
Through comparative research and synoptical documentation, the insights
of the various wisdom traditions,
science, art and music will be brought into a dialogue. In the light of
this new and integral view, the similarity of
the concepts will be evident and the seeming diversity of the historical
doctrines will be superseded by an all
encompassing and intelligent understanding that is harmonious with all.
