                  <text>The overview paradigm, for The Peter Philp Library of Western Esotericism and Global Wisdom Traditions, was inspired by the 'essential unity of all religions' from Theosophy founder Helena Blavatsky (1831-1891) and Theosophical Society Sanskrit motto 'There is no Religion Higher than Truth'. Philp's view  on Western Esotericism is reflected  in an essay by the Greek classics, Gnostic scholar and theosophist, G. R. S. Mead (1863-1933). Mead outlined, in his  March 1891 essay.* Mead outlines, in his 1891 essay, a  broad based overview of the essential perennialism found in the Western Wisdom Traditions, including Greek philosophies of Plato, Pythagorus, pre-Socratics and Noeplatonism, Greek drama, mystery schools, mythology, Gnostic literature and Christian Mysticism, Hermetic philosophy and Alchemy, Jewish Kabbalah, Global Mythology, European folk religions and 'the nature of the soul and states after death'. Mead's view   was to complement the  study of the translations and promotion of the perennial wisdom from Asia, especially focused on India, which Blavatsky and the Theosophical Society were advocating and spearheading during the 1880's to 90's. Peter Philp, in his decades of perennial wisdom book study and collecting, with his ever growing collection, maintained this theosophic basis as its underlying paradigm and inspiration. &#13;

                  <text>The overview paradigm, for The Peter Philp Library of Western Esotericism and Global Wisdom Traditions, was inspired by the 'essential unity of all religions' from Theosophy founder Helena Blavatsky (1831-1891) and Theosophical Society Sanskrit motto 'There is no Religion Higher than Truth'. Philp's view  on Western Esotericism is reflected  in an essay by the Greek classics, Gnostic scholar and theosophist, G. R. S. Mead (1863-1933). Mead outlined, in his  March 1891 essay.* Mead outlines, in his 1891 essay, a  broad based overview of the essential perennialism found in the Western Wisdom Traditions, including Greek philosophies of Plato, Pythagorus, pre-Socratics and Noeplatonism, Greek drama, mystery schools, mythology, Gnostic literature and Christian Mysticism, Hermetic philosophy and Alchemy, Jewish Kabbalah, Global Mythology, European folk religions and 'the nature of the soul and states after death'. Mead's view   was to complement the  study of the translations and promotion of the perennial wisdom from Asia, especially focused on India, which Blavatsky and the Theosophical Society were advocating and spearheading during the 1880's to 90's. Peter Philp, in his decades of perennial wisdom book study and collecting, with his ever growing collection, maintained this theosophic basis as its underlying paradigm and inspiration. &#13;

                  <text>The overview paradigm, for The Peter Philp Library of Western Esotericism and Global Wisdom Traditions, was inspired by the 'essential unity of all religions' from Theosophy founder Helena Blavatsky (1831-1891) and Theosophical Society Sanskrit motto 'There is no Religion Higher than Truth'. Philp's view  on Western Esotericism is reflected  in an essay by the Greek classics, Gnostic scholar and theosophist, G. R. S. Mead (1863-1933). Mead outlined, in his  March 1891 essay.* Mead outlines, in his 1891 essay, a  broad based overview of the essential perennialism found in the Western Wisdom Traditions, including Greek philosophies of Plato, Pythagorus, pre-Socratics and Noeplatonism, Greek drama, mystery schools, mythology, Gnostic literature and Christian Mysticism, Hermetic philosophy and Alchemy, Jewish Kabbalah, Global Mythology, European folk religions and 'the nature of the soul and states after death'. Mead's view   was to complement the  study of the translations and promotion of the perennial wisdom from Asia, especially focused on India, which Blavatsky and the Theosophical Society were advocating and spearheading during the 1880's to 90's. Peter Philp, in his decades of perennial wisdom book study and collecting, with his ever growing collection, maintained this theosophic basis as its underlying paradigm and inspiration. &#13;
