This book comprises a series of occult precepts with commentaries and notes, while Through the Gates of Gold leads the aspirant onward along the path of mystical insight. The mysteries of human suffering, and the responsibilities of the individual for his own progress and for the advancement of the race as a whole, are described.

Translated from the Book of the Golden Precepts, which shares a common origin with the Stanzas of Dzyan of The Secret Doctrine, the rules and ethics presented in the Voice contrast the two paths of spiritual attainment: the one pursued by those seeking knowledge for their own enlightenment, the other chosen by those whose aspirations are prompted by compassion for all.

The solstices and equinoxes have been held sacred in many cultures.

Key teachings on buddhas and avataras, death and initiation, and the two paths of growth for oneself and for others illumine not only the traditions of mankind, but also the road which the aspirant daily ...

Born in 1882, Eric Gill was an artist, letter carver, polemicist, and social reformer. In 1925, he had started drawing alphabets and printing books, and in 1931, this plainspoken little book was a fustian and forceful argument for common sense in design, composed for anyone remotely interested in the subtle and evolving challenge of the typographic arts. Set rag right, with tight word spacing, it is a model of composition. The text, like most ...

Echoes are heard in every age of a timeless path that leads to divine wisdom and to knowledge of our purpose in the universal design. Today's resurgent awareness of our physical and spiritual interdependence affirms those pioneering keynotes set forth in the writings of H P Blavatsky. Her task was to re-present the broad panorama of the "anciently universal Wisdom-Religion" to show its underlying expression in the world's myths, legends, and s...

This volume is divided into five sections, the first a series of articles introducing theosophical concepts which Judge wrote for "Kate Field's Washington" under the title "Echoes from the Orient". Sections 2-4 contain tracts and pamphlets issued by Judge including his highly-esteemed "Epitome of Theosophy" as well as articles in newspapers and journals other than those in the first two volumes, and miscellanea (extracts, undated articles, etc...

In April 1986 the SPR Journal, 'in the interests of truth and fair play', published a critical analysis of the Hodgson Report by handwriting expert Vernon...

These messages are not only of historical significance, but address many issues confronting us today: the growth of psychism, our spiritual development, the need for brotherhood and altruism, and the role of theosophists and the Theosophical Society in the modern world.

They are discussed with the author's penet...
