In esotericism, however, such questions and techniques play an outstanding role and are widely reflected upon, in its literature. Esoteric paradigms not only understand themselves in elaborated mytho-poetical narratives as bearers of older, hidden, higher knowledge. They also claim their knowledge to be of a particular origin. And they claim this knowledge has been transmitted by particular (esoteric) means, media and groups. 588 0 Print version record. 650 0 Occultism. 650 0 Tradition (Theology) 650 0 Tradition (Philosophy) 650 0 Philosophy. 650 7 BODY, MIND & SPIRIT|xDreams.|2bisacsh 650 7 Occultism.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01043123 650 7 Tradition (Philosophy)|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01153957 650 7 Tradition (Theology)|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01153960 650 07 Esoterik.|2swd 650 07 Mythos.|2swd 650 07 Tradition.|2swd 700 1 Kilcher, Andreas B.,|d1963- 776 08 |iPrint version:|tConstructing tradition.|dLeiden ; Boston : Brill, 2010|z9789004191143|w(DLC) 2010033349 |w(OCoLC)657080406 830 0 Aries book series ;|vv. 11. 914 ocn741613214 994 93|bGTK
