“In The Dark Places Of Wisdom”, "Reality". Exploring the spiritual roots of ancient western civilization and western healing traditions.
Dr. Peter Kingsley is one of today’s most skilled revisionists in the historical philosophy behind ancient Greece and the origins of western civilization. Peter’s translations and reinterpretations of the ancient pre-Socractic writings of Parmenides and Empedocles reveal a spiritual legacy, every bit as mystically oriented as Eastern traditions, that are at the roots of western civilization; however the misinterpretation of their writings over the millennia—beginning with Plato and Aristotle -- has resulted in an aberration of what was a profound spiritual legacy developing into the materialist, reductionist culture we have today. He is author of a trilogy of books dealing with the reinterpretation of western philosophy’s roots: “Ancient Philsophy, Myth and Magic” “The Dark Places of Wisdom”, “Reality” & “A Story Waiting to Pierce You: Mongolia, Tibet and the Destiny of the Western World”
