The Mystery of Individuality : Grandeur and Delusion of the Human Condition Paperback / softback
by Mark Perry
Paperback / softback
Description
The Mystery of Individuality explores the nature of human individuality through twelve chapter-mirrors, whose main focal points are spirituality, psychology, sociology, and love, and also the meaning of sacred art.
The issues of leadership and justice, as well as of politics, and even crime, are also examined in depth, along with the roles of sexuality and marriage.
Finally, man and woman are defined in the context of both cosmology and society, with a special emphasis on the divine nature of a human being and what this entails morally and socially.
Perry bases his assessments on the guiding image of archetypal man, namely of a being created in the image of God.
At the same time, he does not shy away from addressing what the distortion of this archetype entails.
He asserts that in creating man, God lent him his own immortal personhood, namely all that we find most lovable in another human creature, in other words his personality.
But finally the question for each of us comes down to remembering our divine essence without forgetting our human nothingness.
