Taliesin's Harp : A Poetics Of The Divine-Humanity

It is important at this stage of planetary history--at this stage in the evolution of consciousness--to elevate a hopeful vision toward which, as planetary community of communities, we may direct our aspirations. In what direction, in our heart-of-hearts, do we wish to travel together? It is suggested here that what is most needed is not so much programmatic as melodic--a discerned melody with which we may harmonize our thoughts and actions. In this, we come to understand the role and function of imagination as a mode of perception--the "place" of revelation. This text is the third and concluding volume in a series of extended reflections on humankind--its formation, its potential and its future. Whereas the first volume is concerned with Fr. Sergius Bulgakov's sophiology and the second volume with the synergic anthropology of the Russian philosopher, Sergey Horujy, this present volume is concerned with what is called the divine-humanity and the divine melody that draws it into being. Referring to the work of Charles Williams, Owen Barfield, Rudolf Steiner and others, this present text offers an appealing presentation of what is possible in the next stages of planetary evolution. In these reflections on the iconic potential (iconicity) of language, what is offered is a consideration of the "paradise consciousness" associated always and everywhere with intimations of the Blessed Virgin Mary.

Sergius Bulgakov, published in 2016 Praise for From Glory to Glory "Thompson's work is more than an accessible introduction to a complicated theologian; it is a rich philosophical inquiry that captures the essence of Bulgakov's vision, and thus the fears and hopes of a generation." -Madonna Sophia Compton
