In this title, time-honoured rules of ethical and spiritual conduct are presented along with warnings against pitfalls of psychic development. There is no shortcut to wisdom, no instant enlightenment, for inner unfolding cannot be induced artificially. While the path toward conscious union with our inner divinity demands the utmost devotion, fidelity, and perseverance, it is also 'bright with joy, and lighted with the fires of the spirit'. This book reproduces the first two sections of "Fountain-Source of Occultism", so that the seeker may have readily to hand an inspired vision of the path before him.

From 1924 to 1927, Katherine Tingley sponsored a series of private studies in "The Secret Doctrine", with G de Purucker as lecturer. This record of the meetings provides an excellent introduction to H.P. Blavatsky's masterwork, yet it stands on its own as a clear restatement of the philosophy expounded by all great thinkers and sages. Beginning with the three fundamental postulates of the SD, the presentation moves to cosmic and human evolution, with emphasis on the interconnectedness of all beings. Other topics include man's nature and destiny; avataras and buddhas; and, initiation, the Mysteries, and ethical values.

Derived from twelve booklets of instruction to private students, "Fountain-Source" restores occultism to its original purity and recreates the atmosphere and discipline of the ancient Mystery schools. The scope of teaching is vast: the primeval wisdom-teaching; discipline and the spiritual path; the genesis, structure and destiny of galaxies and solar systems; correlations of cosmic and human constitutions; death and the circulations of the cosmos; and, invisible worlds and their inhabitants. This title is addressed to all who sense the inter-relatedness of human destiny with the cosmic design, and feel the call of altruistic service to humanity.

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 seeks to tread.
