Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Essays on Theosophy TO those who remain content with the Church doctrine as preached by the clergy of to-day, and also with the self-guiding laws, void of Soul and Spirit, believed in by modern material scientists, it is advised that such beliefs be retained so long as they continue to supply comfort and satisfaction, and that the study of Theosophy for these persons be deferred meanwhile this book is offered firstly to Christians who have awakened to the fact that while for centuries they have been accepting their ideas of Christianity, ready made, from the hands of former generations, humanity, in the inevitable upward turn of its evolutionary course, has been slowly but surely transcending them, and from an ever-improving basis of mentality reaching out for something more satisfying than the empty husks of the religion which fed its fore fathers; and, secondly, to scientists who have become, or are becoming, aware that root-religion and Science cannot be separated inasmuch as they constitute the dual parts of the perfect Whole of that mechanism of Divinity which formed the modus operandi of Creation. It is through the medium of Theosophy (the soul of Science) that Spiritual wisdom, which greatly transcends all mundane knowledge, is imparted to it and leads it to heights of achievement undreamed of by materialists.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Five Years of Theosophy: Mystical, Philosophical, Theosophical, Historical, and Scientific Essays He has by actual experiment and observation verified some of the less transcendental or incipient parts of the Course. And, though it will be impossible for him to give positive testimony as to what lies beyond, he may yet mention that all his own course of study, training and experience, long, severe and dangerous as it has often been, leads him to the conviction that everything is really as stated, save some details purposely veiled. For causes which cannot be explained to the public, he himself may be unable or nu willing to use the secret he has gained access to. Still he is permitted by one to whom all his reverential affection and gratitude are due - his last guru - to divulge for the benefit of Science and Man. And specially for the good of those who are courageous enough to personally make the experiment, the following astounding particulars of the occult methods for prolonging life to a period far beyond the common. - G.

Download or read book The Beautiful Necessity written by Claude Fayette Bragdon and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03-21 with total page 88 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Beautiful Necessity: Seven Essays on Theosophy and Architecture Music being purely in time and architecture being purely in space, each is, in a manner, and to a degree not possible with any of the other arts, con vertible into the other, by reason of the correspondence subsisting between intervals of time and intervals of space. A perception of this may have inspired the famous saying that architecture is frozen music, a poetical state ment of a philosophical truth, since that which in music is expressed by means of harmonious intervals of time and pitch, successively, after the manner of time, may be translated into corresponding intervals of architectural void and solid, height and width. In another sense music and architecture are allied. They alone of all the arts are purely creative, since in them is presented, not a likeness of some known idea, but a thing-in-itself brought to a distinct and complete expres sion of its nature. Neither a musical composition nor a work of architecture depends for its effectiveness upon resemblances to natural sounds in the one case, or to natural forms in the other. Of none of the other arts is this to such a degree true: they are not so much creative as re - creative, for in them all the artist takes his subject ready made from nature and presents it anew according to the dictates of his genius.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Theosophical Manuals, Vol. 16: From Crypt to Pronaos; An Essay on the Rise and Fall of Dogma HE remarks under this head are intended to be introductory to each of the Manuals. First, as to the spirit in which they are of feted. These Manuals are not written in a controversial spirit, nor as an addition to the stock of theories awaiting public approval. The writers have no time to waste in arguing with people who do not wish to be convinced, or who ridicule everything which is new to their limited outlook. Their message is for those who desire to know those who are seeking for something that will solve their doubts and remove their difficulties. For such, all that is needed is a clear exposition of the Theosophical teachings; for they will judge of the truth of a teaching by its power to an swer the questions they ask. People realize, much more now than in the early days of the Theosophical Society, the value of Theosophy.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The World-Mystery: Four Essays The task that I propose to myself is no light one; it is no less than to discuss some of the opinions of my fellow-men on Deity, and to point out, if possible, some common ground of agreement or reconciliation between the innu merable ideas put forward on this inexhaustible topic. I shall not write either as an avowed monotheist, pantheist, theist, or atheist, for I conceive that a real student of theosophy is sufficiently imbued with the spirit of the great law of expansion and progress, not to condemn himself or herself to the narrowing limits of any of these sectarian ideas, which cannot fail to bring him in conflict with the prejudices of some section or other of his brother-men.

Download or read book The Ocean of Theosophy Classic Reprint written by William Q. Judge and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-04-22 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Ocean of Theosophy N attempt is made in the pages of this book 2 to write of Theosophy in such a manner as to be understood by the ordinary reader. Bold statements are made in it upon the knowledge of the writer, but at the same time it is distinctly to be understood that he alone is responsi ble for what is therein written: the Theosophical' Society is not involved in nor bound by anything said in the book, nor are any of its members any the less good Theosophists because they may not accept what he has set down. The tone of settled convie tion which may be thought to pervade the chapters is not the result of dogmatism or conceit, but flows from knowledge 'based upon evidence and experience. Members of the Theosophical Society will notice that certain theories or doctrines have not been gone into. That is because they could not be treated with out unduly extending the book and arousing needless controversy. The subject of the Will has received no treatment, inasmuch as that power or faculty is hidden, subtle, undiscoverable as to essence, and only visible in effect. As it is absolutely colorless and varies in moral qual ity in accordance with the desire behind it, as also it acts frequently without our knowledge, and as it operates in all the kingdoms below man, there could. Be nothing gained by attempting to enquire into it apart from the Spirit and the desire. No originality is claimed for this book. The writer invented none of it, discovered none of it, but has simply written that which he has been taught and which has been proved to him. It therefore is only a handing on of what has been known before. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Beautiful Necessity This book is a result of an effort made by us towards making a contribution to the preservation and repair of original classic literature. In an attempt to preserve, improve and recreate the original content, we have worked towards: 1. Type-setting & Reformatting: The complete work has been re-designed via professional layout, formatting and type-setting tools to re-create the same edition with rich typography, graphics, high quality images, and table elements, giving our readers the feel of holding a 'fresh and newly' reprinted and/or revised edition, as opposed to other scanned & printed (Optical Character Recognition - OCR) reproductions. 2. Correction of imperfections: As the work was re-created from the scratch, therefore, it was vetted to rectify certain conventional norms with regard to typographical mistakes, hyphenations, punctuations, blurred images, missing content/pages, and/or other related subject matters, upon our consideration. Every attempt was made to rectify the imperfections related to omitted constructs in the original edition via other references. However, a few of such imperfections which could not be rectified due to intentional\unintentional omission of content in the original edition, were inherited and preserved from the original work to maintain the authenticity and construct, relevant to the work. We believe that this work holds historical, cultural and/or intellectual importance in the literary works community, therefore despite the oddities, we accounted the work for print as a part of our continuing effort towards preservation of literary work and our contribution towards the development of the society as a whole, driven by our beliefs. We are grateful to our readers for putting their faith in us and accepting our imperfections with regard to preservation of the historical content. HAPPY READING!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Babu Mohini M. Chatterji has rendered a valuable service in compiling, from the first five volumes of the Theosophist, this portly book of 557 pp. 8Vo, with a Glossary of Oriental terms, for the convenience of Western readers. The work has been done with judgment, and the selections cover a wide portion of the field of research with which our Society concerns itself."-Review, Theosophist, November, 1885 "This invaluable work contains many of the most important articles that have appeared during the last five years in the Theosophist. It is a perfect mine of wealth to the student of Occultism, and puts before him an immense body of esoteric teaching which is not contained in any other available volume."-Book Notice, Theosophist, November, 1885 Five Years of Theosophy has become a classic of theosophical literature since its initial publication in 1885. It contains articles from some of the deepest students of the early Theosophical Society, including H. P. Blavatsky, Mohini Chatterji, Damodar K. Mavalankar, T. Subba Row and others; and it covers several key subjects in ways and at depths that one will have difficulty finding elsewhere. It is thus an invaluable addition to the collection of any serious student of theosophy.
