Helena Blavatsky's translations of three fragments of ancient
Buddhist wisdom, sourced from texts such as The Book of Golden
Precepts, are contained in this thought-provoking volume. A
valiantly sought collection of sage advice and spiritual
instruction, The Voice of the Silence offers readers advice on
inner growth. Principally the text echoes the principles of
Buddhism, advising readers to put aside personal desires and focus
upon fostering the inner wealth of the soul to achieve a life of
contentment. Blavatsky's book was published as part of her personal
investigations into ancient wisdom pertaining to the human soul and
reality. Her hunt turned up the formerly obscure fragments which
she painstakingly translated. Although existing scholars generally
poured cold water upon her efforts, which they considered a
haphazard grouping of ancient precepts and mysticism, the reception
was warmer among readers discovering the theosophist principles of
spiritualism for the first time.
