Symbolism of the Ark: Universal Symbolism of the Receptacle of Divine Immanence

A compendium of religious symbols and their meanings, this scholarly reference is relevant to a wide variety of spiritual and metaphysical interests, including Judeo-Christian theology, Jungian psychology, ancient mythology, mystical and occult traditions, and New Age practices. Building on the pioneering labors of René Guénon and Ananda Coomaraswamy, the study mines the symbolism of the Bible—particularly the stories of Noah's ark and the Ark of the Covenant—for comparison with other traditions.
