First published in 1882, The Perfect Way or The Finding of Christ
is Anna Kingsford's attempt to bring together Christianity and the
Theosophical tradition, which supposes a system of fundamental
truths from which all religions are born and seeks to identify that
wisdom so that humans may move further along their path to
perfection. This perfection, according to Kingsford, is exemplified
by Christ, which she sees as a category of person and not a
particular historical person. In this construction, anyone is
capable of a becoming a Christ and joining with the Divine.
Students of religion and spiritual seekers will find this book an
interesting read from a once popular religious and philosophical
movement. English physician ANNA BONUS KINGSFORD (1846-1888) was
also one of the first women in England to be granted a medical
degree and served as onetime president of the Theosophical Society.
She is also the author of Clothing with the Sun (1889). English
writer EDWARD MAITLAND (1824-1897) assisted Anna Kingsford in
writing several books and then opened the Esoteric Christian Union
in 1891.
