Sir John George Woodroffe

    Sir John George Woodroffe, publiant principalement sous le pseudonyme d'Arthur Avalon, fut un juriste distingué et un orientaliste pionnier, profondément immergé dans le sanskrit et la philosophie hindoue. Ses recherches académiques se concentrèrent sur la découverte et l'interprétation des connaissances ésotériques au sein des anciennes traditions indiennes, en particulier le Tantra. L'œuvre d'Avalon visait à jeter un pont entre la sagesse orientale et la compréhension occidentale, rendant accessibles des concepts spirituels et philosophiques complexes. Ses écrits demeurent une ressource vitale pour ceux qui explorent les profondeurs de la pensée et de la spiritualité indiennes.
