The Idea of the Holy is a seminal work by Rudolf Otto, originally published in 1926. In this book, Otto explores the concept of the divine and the non-rational factor that is often associated with it. He argues that the idea of the holy is something that transcends everyday experience and cannot be fully understood through rational thought alone. Otto draws upon a wide range of religious and philosophical traditions, including Christianity, Hinduism, and Buddhism, to explore the idea of the holy. He identifies several key characteristics that are often associated with the holy, including the sense of awe and mystery that it inspires, the feeling of being in the presence of something greater than oneself, and the sense of being overwhelmed by a power that is beyond human comprehension. Throughout the book, Otto emphasizes the importance of recognizing the non-rational factor in our understanding of the divine. He argues that our attempts to understand the holy through rational thought alone are ultimately limited, and that we must also be open to the possibility of experiencing the divine through other means, such as intuition or mystical experience. Overall, The Idea of the Holy is a thought-provoking and influential work that continues to be widely read and studied today. It offers a unique perspective on the nature of the divine and the ways in which we can come to know and understand it.An Inquiry into the Non Rational Factor in the Idea of the Divine and its Relation to the Rational.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
