The Author of this volume - an independent student, the result of whose investigations extending over a period of many years is embodied in this work - here outlines a system of esotericism reminiscent in a marked degree of the Rosicrucian School. His thesis revolves round the central problem of the mystery of birth and death. Neither spiritualism, psychic research, nor theosophy by themselves are sufficient, he contends, to explain this 'Fourth Mystery', although the solution suggested by the author involves the acknowledgment and appreciation of each in its degree. The reader will find in this little book a distinctive and interesting contribution to the literature of esotericism. In this text, C. G. Harrison's concern is resurrection, whereas in his earlier and more extensive work, The Transcendental Universe (of which the present text forms a continuation), the central theme was reincarnation. Of the earlier book, contemporary author on related topics and director of Phanes Press, David Fideler, wrote: At sensitive moments in time, spiritual impulses are released into the world of human affairs. This work] casts an intriguing light on this phenomenon, as seen through the eyes of a nineteenth-century Christian occultist.

Isis Unveiled is a master key to the mysteries of ancient and modern science and theology. With the help of this book you will be able to make sense of how so many of the world's peaceful and beautiful religions have been changed by those in charge of said religions. H. P.

The Way to Christ was the first published book of German mystic JACOB BOEHME (1575-1624), who received a revelatory vision in 1600 while watching a beam of sunlight reflect in a metal dish. A spiritual guide for Christians, this book contains Boehme's method for attaining enlightenment and unity with God. He offers prayers for readers to repeat and guides them through the repentance that is necessary in finding Christ. Lost souls and Christians out of touch with their faith will find Boehme's conviction and passion inspiring.

Adherents of theosophy, the esoteric philosophy popular at the turn of the 20th century, believed that science and religion could be reconciled, and that the plan of the universe could and should be understood, and that it was humanity's duty to adapt to that plan. Here, in a series of lectures delivered in Sydney, Australia, in 1915, the renowned spiritualist Charles W. Leadbeater, a leader of theosophical thought, celebrates the new "sub-race" of humanity come to joyful life in the immigrant nations of America, Australia, and New Zealand, where, freed from the social shackles of Old World Europe, races and classes were intermingling to create a new kind of culture, which would in turn reshape the world. Far-reaching and perceptive, this is an extraordinary little volume of social insight and criticism.British author CHARLES WEBSTER LEADBEATER (1854-1934) was ordained as an Anglican priest, but later joined the prominent Theosophical Society and traveled to India to study alternative spiritual and occult practices, eventually settling into his life as a clairvoyant and author. His other works include Man Visible and Invisible and The Science of the Sacrament.

How does the story of Christianity and the tenets of the faith fit into the grand scheme of transcultural spirituality? In this inspiring book, first published in 1904, the renowned spiritualist Charles W. Leadbeater places Christianity into the larger context of human religious experience-with a specific eye toward demonstrating how adherents of theosophy, the esoteric philosophy popular at the turn of the 20th century that attempted to reconcile science and religion, could maintain their Christian faith. Seekers after spiritual wisdom and students of comparative mythology will find this a fascinating read.

According to esoteric teachings we have an energy body of lighter, less dense material that is connected to our physical bodies. Those who can see it call it the aura and can sometimes tell the state of a person's health by the way it appears. Those who use its energy refer to the force as prana, chi, vital force, orgone or a number of other names. There are seven chakras, or energy points, where this energy collects in the etheric body. Working with the chakras and these spiritual energies can play a big part in the psychic development and enlightenment of those sensitive enough to work on these levels. This book shows you how. Subjects include a chapter on each chakra center; also Prana or Vitality, Force-Centres, Kundalini, Healing, Mediumship, Birth, Death, Mesmerism, Magnetisation of Objects, Ectoplasm, and more.

Theosophy is an esoteric course of study that resides at the crossroads of philosophy, religion, and science. This expository work, by renowned spiritual adept Charles W. Leadbeater and first published in 1912, is a succinct, practical description of the movement, which is, at its base, a study of Truth. Leadbeater, having been thoroughly educated within a number of schools of religious thought, is a uniquely qualified guide who leads the reader through the challenging field of Theosophy, with but one goal in mind: To serve humanity by showing all students the way to be one with the divine energy of God.
