The Fire of Creation is a philosophical and spiritual book written by J.J. van der Leeuw, a Dutch scholar and theologian. The book explores the nature of human existence and the relationship between humanity and the divine. Van der Leeuw argues that human beings possess a unique capacity for spiritual experience, which allows them to connect with the divine and participate in the ongoing process of creation. Drawing on a wide range of religious and philosophical traditions, the author explores themes such as the nature of consciousness, the role of ritual and symbolism in religious practice, and the significance of mystical experience. The Fire of Creation is a thought-provoking and insightful exploration of the human condition and the search for meaning in life.1925.
