Total in God total in oneself - The Teilhardian vision of unification of the world and God and its roots in European philosophical-theological tradition

More about the book

Exploring the Teilhardian vision of unification in Christ, this essay situates it within the European philosophical-theological tradition, tracing influences from thinkers like Parmenides and Spinoza. It examines the analogy between Teilhard's evolutionary concept and Christian eschatology, referencing early Church Fathers. The discussion extends to the implications of Teilhard's views on the spiritualization of matter for intercultural dialogue, particularly with Asian religions, and concludes with the moral and spiritual ramifications of this unifying tradition for contemporary development.
