Christos - William Kingsland - Bog

""Christos: The Religion of the Future"" is a book written by William Kingsland that explores the concept of Christ as a universal spiritual force that transcends traditional religious boundaries. The author argues that Christ is not limited to Christianity but is a universal principle that is accessible to all people regardless of their religion or background. Kingsland draws on various spiritual traditions, including Christianity, Buddhism, and Hinduism, to support his thesis that Christ is a unifying force that can bring together all of humanity. The book also delves into the esoteric teachings of the Theosophical Society, of which Kingsland was a member, and explores the idea of Christ as a cosmic force that permeates the universe. Overall, ""Christos: The Religion of the Future"" is a thought-provoking and insightful exploration of the nature of spirituality and the role of Christ in the modern world.What I have here endeavored to do, merely in outline, is to show that certain modern beliefs, dogmas, and creeds, which have been carried over and have survived from a far less enlightened age or period, can no longer be valid in the light of our modern knowledge. But, further than that, I shall hope to indicate that even in the remotest past there was already a deeper knowledge, a real Gnosis which we are in fact only now beginning to recover. It is that ancient Gnosis which must be the Religion of the Future; for, as I shall hope to show to some extent, all our scientific discoveries and our modern philosophical thinking tends to confirmation and restatement of it.""
