Descrizione

About The Book: "The World as Power, Power as Matter" by Sir John Woodroffe (Arthur Avalon) is a significant text that explores the interplay between the metaphysical concepts of power and matter from the perspective of Hindu Tantra. Woodroffe presents the world as a manifestation of divine power, articulated through material forms. He delves into the philosophy of Shakti, the divine feminine energy, suggesting that what we perceive as material reality is a dynamic expression of this divine power. The book combines theological elements of Shakti and maya (illusion) to argue that the physical world is not merely inert matter but imbued with a form of divine consciousness. This work is crucial for understanding Woodroffe's contribution to Western interpretations of Eastern spirituality and Tantric philosophy.
