Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 The fundamental doctrine of the two natures is that there is a physical order of things and a metaphysical one. There is a mortal nature and an immortal one. There is a superior realm of being and an inferior realm of becoming. #2 The world of being and the world of becoming affect things, demons, and men. Every hypostatic representation of these two regions, whether expressed in astral, mythological, theological, or religious terms, reminded traditional man of the existence of the two states. #3 The traditional world believed that spirituality was something beyond life and death. It believed that mere physical existence is meaningless unless it approximates the higher world or that which is more than life. #4 Every traditional civilization has a class of people who, by virtue of their innate or acquired superiority over the human condition, embody within the temporal order the living and efficacious presence of a power that comes from above.
