Product Description
Father Anthony Duncan's classic text, The Christ, Psychotherapy and Magic is a daring admixture of Christian orthodoxy and the magical elements that swirl around it. His unifying perspective on occultism, particularly the Qabalah, shows how it can relate to the practice and faith of Christianity in a positive and affirming way. Although there have always been shadowy connections between English churchmen and the lodge mysteries it is rare for an Anglican cleric to confront this nexus head on, and with such explorative clarity. The book has been read and taught in conjunction with Gareth Knight's Experience of the Inner Worlds, and both texts sprang from the two authors' sharing of ideas and resultant friendship at Tewkesbury. Remarkably, both mystic and occultist found common spiritual and ideological ground, not least in the hermetic ideas of the Qabalah, which this book explains in refreshingly clear detail.
