This late work of Frithjof Schuon represents a general survey of his metaphysical perspective, which is that of the Sophia perennis, or perennial wisdom found at the heart of the world's religions. This new edition of The Play of Masks features a fully revised translation from the French original as well as over 50 pages of new material, including previously unpublished selections from the author's letters and other private writings. Also included is an editor's preface, extensive editor's notes, a glossary of foreign terms and phrases, an index, and biographical notes. Composed of short independent treatises, this book presents readers with fundamental keys for understanding the nature of God, the world, and the human situation. Throughout his writings, Schuon emphasizes the centrality of three elements: Truth, Way, and Virtue. The Truth is what we must know; the Way is what we must do; Virtue is what we must love, become, and be.
