Description

Living Theurgy: A Course in Iamblichus' Philosophy, Theology and Theurgy by Jeffrey S. Kupperman is a comprehensive guide to the core ideologies and practices of Theurgy, a mystical philosophy that combines ritual, philosophy, and theology. This book elucidates the core principles of Theurgy, which evolved over 1000 years through Platonic philosophy and cultural transformations. Kupperman explores the philosophical foundation of Theurgy, discussing key concepts such as virtue, wisdom, and beauty, as well as the theological aspects of the One, the Good, and the nature of the human soul. The work concludes with a detailed guide to the Invocation of the Personal Daimon, a crucial step in the theurgic process of purification and illumination. With its clear and practical approach, Living Theurgy offers a unique insight into the world of Theurgy, making it an invaluable resource for those seeking to understand this complex and fascinating subject.
