Die Rede von Erleuchtung hat Hochkonjunktur. Der ursprunglich 'abendlandisch'-christlich impragnierte Begriff ist zu einem der wirkmachtigsten Termini der religiosen Selbstbeschreibung innerhalb eines globalen Diskurses avanciert, wobei viele westliche Akteure eher asiatische Traditionen mit ihm verbinden. Entgegen der weitverbreiteten Versuchung, unterschiedliche Sinngebungen zu einer vermeintlichen Universalie zu verschmelzen, unterzieht der Band den Erleuchtungsbegriff, verwandte Termini und Konzepte verschiedener Kulturen einer kritischen Untersuchung. Neben Erkenntnistheorien und Modellen religios-mystischer Erleuchtung (z.B. Platon, Plotin, Augustinus, Hesychasmus) sind Diskussionsgegenstand Begriffe und Konzepte aus Religionen und Philosophien Vorder-, Sud- und Ostasiens (z.B. Manichaismus, Islam, judische Kabbala, Hinduismus, Buddhismus und Konfuzianismus). Daruber hinaus wird der Begriffsverwendung bis in die moderne Esoterik und in die gegenwartige alternative Religiositat nachgegangen.
