The Perennial Philosophy

Aldous Huxley’s 1945 anthology-with-commentary arguing that the world’s religious and mystical traditions, stripped of their local particulars, describe the same underlying reality — the book that put the phrase philosophia perennis into general circulation.

It is the unnamed source behind a term that recurs across Kyle’s notes: Pertaining to God points at it directly, Super Uno Pluribus runs the same convergence argument in computational language, and What I Learned Running a Junto and Why It Failed uses it socially rather than metaphysically. The Oldest Idea Keeps Getting Rediscovered is the essay draft that would have to reckon with it.

Not yet read — anti-library, per rule 14: it surfaces here because it is cited across the corpus, not because Kyle has finished it.
