Maggiori informazioni sul libro

The exploration of civilization's nature highlights its evolution through spiritual responses to God as Light, influencing religions and cultural expressions, particularly architecture. The author argues that civilizations decline when they lose this central vision, leading to secularization. In light of recent global changes, such as the fall of the Soviet Empire and tensions with Arab civilization, a revival of metaphysical understanding may pave the way for a future world government, emphasizing the importance of spiritual foundations in societal development.
