Pantheism And Cosmic Emotion

""Pantheism and Cosmic Emotion"" is a philosophical treatise written by Frederic Harrison. The book explores the concept of pantheism, which posits that the universe and nature are divine and interconnected, and that God is present in everything. Harrison argues that this belief system is rooted in a deep emotional connection to the universe and a sense of awe and wonder at its beauty and complexity. The book delves into the history of pantheism, tracing its roots in ancient Greek philosophy and its development in the works of Spinoza, Goethe, and other thinkers. Harrison also examines the relationship between pantheism and other religious and philosophical traditions, including Christianity, Buddhism, and existentialism. Throughout the book, Harrison emphasizes the importance of emotional experience in understanding pantheism. He argues that the sense of awe and wonder that comes from contemplating the universe is a key aspect of this belief system, and that it can help us to cultivate a deeper connection to the natural world and to each other. Overall, ""Pantheism and Cosmic Emotion"" is a thought-provoking exploration of a complex and often misunderstood philosophical concept. It offers readers a new perspective on the relationship between spirituality, emotion, and the natural world, and invites them to consider the profound implications of pantheistic thought for our understanding of ourselves and our place in the universe.THIS 28 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: The Creed of a Layman Apologia Pro Fide Mea, by Frederic Harrison.
