Written by one of the foremost authorities on esoteric
Christianity, HIDDEN SIDE takes you on a journey beneath the
popular surface meaning of the major events in the church's year.
It was written a few months after World War One, and that still is
a strong memory to the author. Archbishop Leadbeater (1854-1934)
was the second Presiding Bishop of the Liberal Rite of the church
catholic. He was one of the most well-known authors on esoteric
Christianity of the twentieth century. "Christianity is one of the
great paths up the mountain of light at the summit of, which sits
God Himself. It is one of the paths, but only one, and if we have a
number of people all round the base of the mountain, the shortest
path to the top for each man is the path, which opens before him.
It would be foolish to have the idea that we must go and drag a man
all round the base of the mountain in order to make him walk up our
particular path. "Our efforts to convert people from other
religions and modes of worship are unnecessary and presumptuous.
The effort to bring to the knowledge of God people who are ignorant
of His ways is a grand and noble action; that we should by deed as
well as by word preach our belief that there is a God, and that to
live as He would have men live is the only sure way to comfort and
peace - that is a noble work; but to try to convert a man who is
already good along his own line in order to make him good along
ours is not a sensible thing to do." Abp. Charles W. Leadbeater
from "The Epiphany"
