The Crest-Wave of Evolution: Enriched edition. A Course of Lectures in History, Given to the Graduates' Class in the Raja-Yoga College, Point Loma, in the College-Year 1918-19

In 'The Crest-Wave of Evolution,' Kenneth Morris embarks on a profound exploration of the relationship between humanity and the unfolding spectrum of consciousness. This work deftly intertwines philosophical discourse with poetic prose, crafting a narrative that reflects the author's fascination with evolution'—not solely as a biological phenomenon but as a spiritual and intellectual awakening. Morris navigates the intricacies of evolution, drawing upon philosophical and mystical traditions, thus situating the text within the broader context of early 20th-century thought, where science and spirituality began intertwining harmoniously. Kenneth Morris was a Welsh-American writer and philosopher whose interest in mysticism and metaphysics significantly shaped his literary endeavors. He was deeply influenced by theosophical ideas, which can be seen in his belief in the cyclical nature of evolution as a transformative process. Working during a time when many intellectuals were reevaluating traditional notions of progress and enlightenment, Morris infused his writing with a sense of urgency and vision, challenging readers to look beyond the mere physical aspects of evolution and toward its spiritual implications. I highly recommend 'The Crest-Wave of Evolution' to readers who are keen to engage with complex themes of spirituality, philosophy, and the nature of human advancement. This book will resonate with those interested in the intersections of science and mysticism, inviting them to contemplate their own place within the evolutionary continuum.
