The Western lists are the familiar ones, the four cardinal and three theological virtues, the seven deadly sins, descending from Greek philosophy and Christian teaching. Alongside them the atlas sets the moral categories of other traditions: the paramitas of Buddhism, the kleshas of Buddhist and yogic analysis, and the virtues and vices attached to the sephiroth in Kabbalistic correspondence.Cross-Tradition ConnectionsArticle OnVirtues & Vices, Sections Well-attested Source Divinity Atlas Long-Form Articles, First Editiontier 1SourcesDivinity Atlas Long-Form Articles, First Editiontier 1Comments (0)No comments yet.
