Author Description

Description Of "The Spiritual Crisis Of Man" by Paul Beckman (Palu Rainbow Song) GURU PALU The Spiritual Crisis Of Man is a book written by Dr. Paul Brunton soon after updating "The Hidden Teaching Philosophy" which comprised 2 books to fully encapsulate it, called, "The Hidden Teaching Beyond Yoga" and "The Wisdom Of The Overself." "The Spriritual Crisis Of Man" was first published in 1952, following the advent of World War II, which for good or bad, still had an influence on Dr. Paul Brunton's writings at the time. He tried his best to keep such events out of the bulk of his writings, though such influences dominated the times. Occasionally they seeped in, (do what he could). When WWII finished and was no more, it is easy to see that much of its influence became pabulum for "The Spiritual Crisis Of Man," on reflection. Much that is ugly in this world is seen in the tragedy of war. Dr. Paul Brunton did his best to try and bring out the common good, above all. A pioneer of the West in Yoga and Meditation by being one of the first Westerners to travel the orient for answers from its greatest Sages, Gurus and Yogis of his day, he kept the West abreast of his experiences as a well trained journalist. In "The Spiritual Crisis Of Man," Brunton was able to speak oftentimes on a global level. His observations pointed out how many people are intrinsically tied to their "ego-point-of-view." Therein lay many of the world's problems and difficulties. If humankind were to seek a higher power within and without, civilization would be much helped and the tiny orbit of the individual would quickly rise to a higher apex, the likes of which humanity had ever been seeking and will achieve in due time!
