Hardcover. Condizione: New. 1st Edition. This tenth volume in The Notebooks of Paul Brunton presents, in depth and detail, the fifteenth of twenty-eight major sections in the personal notebooks Dr. Paul Brunton (1898-1981) reserved for posthumous publication. The Orient has three distinct elements. Chapter one consists primarily of inspiring reflections on the value of Eastern thought in general, differences and parallels between Eastern and Western cultures, and how changes in both hemispheres are pointing toward the birth of a new and necessarily creative world culture that will integrate the best values of ancient and modern, mystical and scientific cultures worldwide. Turning next to specific elements within Oriental culture, the book reflects one major editorial decision. The entries in this section of The Notebooks can be approached in a variety of ways. The two most obvious alternatives involve choosing between a structure that reflects primarily geographic distinctions and one that reflects religious or ideological ones. This geographical structure seems more in keeping with the 'travel book' style of Brunton's earlier writings.

Often reading like a colorful travelogue, it has sections on India, China, Angkor, Wat, Ceylon, Japan, Egypt, Tibet and other Himalayan countries.
