Primordial Traditions was the winner of the 2009 Ashton Wylie Award
for Literary Excellence. This new second edition of the original
award winning collection features a selection of essays by
Gwendolyn Taunton and other talented authors from the original
periodical Primordial Traditions (2006-2010). The new version of
Primordial Traditions offers a revised layout and a new binding.
This edition also has content not contained in the original
publication. The first section of Primordial Traditions deals with
aspects of perennial philosophy covering the broader applications
of the Primordial Tradition in the modern world. Alchemy,
philosophy, civilization, the Kali Yuga, and even the problems
afflicting the economy are addressed here from a traditional
perspective. This section deals with the nature of the Primordial
Tradition and how all True Spiritual Traditions consequently relate
to it in this new philosophy of religion. The second section of the
book then breaks down Traditions into geographic locations to
discuss European, Eastern, Middle Eastern and South American
Traditions at an advanced level. Topics covered here include:
Tibetan Tantra, Sufism, Yezidi, Tantrism, Vedic Mythology,
Theravada Buddhism, Thai Magic, Tantrism, Oneiromancy, Norse
Berserkers, Runes, Celtic Mythology, Mithras, Hellenic Mythology
and Mayan Ceremonial Astrology to name but a few fascinating
obscurities. Content includes the following articles by Gwendolyn
