Kahlil Gibran’s The Prophet And The Art Of Peace (the New Illustrated Edition Of Kahlil Gibran’s Timeless Wisdom)

Discover the enduring wisdom of Kahlil Gibran’s best-selling classic text in this beautifully illustrated and silk-bound new edition – the perfect spiritual gift! The Prophet, first published in 1923, is the story of a seer and his wisdom. The book attained astonishing success, becoming a mystical and spiritual guide for the modern era and earning its author cult status. In the 1960s, Gibran was embraced by the American counterculture movement and confirmed as the pioneer of the New Age. His messages remain powerful to this day for example, he likens the soul to a battlefield, in which reason and passion seem locked in warring opposition; yet it is fruitless to fight either – instead, one must become a peacemaker and love both elements before seeking to heal oneself. God rests in reason and moves in passion. Such universal wisdom is typical Gibran. He had originally envisaged a Prophet trilogy, but only the first two books were ever published. This edition presents both titles, The Prophet and The Garden of the Prophet, together with selections from the writer’s other enlightening philosophical and spiritual works. With his uplifting inspirations, Gibran, one of the most profound writers of all time, presents eternal wisdom about life and spirituality.
