Far from advocating cultural opposition he calls for a higher synthesis rooted in the metaphysical unity that transcends all authentic traditions.</span></p><p><em style=color: rgba(102 102 102 1); background-color: rgba(0 0 0 0)>East and West</em><span style=color: rgba(102 102 102 1); background-color: rgba(255 255 255 1)> is both a diagnosis of modernity's spiritual crisis and a call to return to principles that lie at the heart of all sacred civilizations.
