The Lost Meaning of Death

The Lost Meaning of Death: New Lectures on Ancient Wisdom, written by Alvin Boyd Kuhn, is a book that delves into the meaning and significance of death in different cultures and religions throughout history. The author explores various perspectives on death, including the Egyptian, Greek, and Christian views, and draws upon ancient texts and symbols to shed light on their beliefs and practices. Kuhn argues that the modern Western world has lost touch with the deeper spiritual meaning of death, and that by re-examining these ancient wisdom traditions, we can gain a greater understanding of our own mortality and the purpose of life. This book offers a thought-provoking and insightful exploration of a topic that is often shrouded in mystery and fear, and is recommended for anyone interested in philosophy, spirituality, or the human condition.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
