"The Philokalia ( ' love of the beautiful', a love for everything of God, beauty's source) is a collection of texts written between the fourth and fifteenth centuries by spiritual masters
Of the Eastern Christian contemplative, ascetic and hesychast tradition. they describe
The conditions most effective for learning what their authors call the art of arts and the science
Of sciences, a learning which is not a matter of information or agility of mind but
Of a radical change of will and heart leading man towards the highest possibilities open to him, shaping and nourishing the unseen part of his being, and helping him to spiritual fulfillment
And union with God.
I esp like ' love of the beautiful' ......and ' unseen parts of his being'...ye old 'inner self' of such as Jung and TRP?
