Book SynopsisDesde que Wilkins tradujo en 1785 el Bhagavad Gita o ?Canto del Señor?, que es una parte del Mahabharata, quedaron sorprendidos los literatos europeos por aquella revelación del nuevo mundo, por aquel inopinado descubrimiento de un nuevo y vastísimo campo en el que tenían sus originarias raíces las ciencias, artes, letras, religiones y filosofías, las civilizaciones en suma, de los países de Occidente.Sin duda alguna que el Bhagavad Gita ha sido, es y será, en la India, la obra más leída, comentada y aplaudida de cuantas constituyen su riquísima literatura sagrada. Lo aceptan ortodoxamente y en él beben, como en una cristalina fuente de verdad, todas las escuelas y sectas religiosas, que al amparo de la nobilísima virtud de la tolerancia florecen en Oriente, cual ramas de un común tronco que con igual actividad por todas ellas distribuye su savia.

Quest Books,U.S. Thought Forms Theosophical classics series
Book SynopsisWhat do ideas look like? This clairvoyant view of the shape, colour and atmospheric effect of mental energy includes black-and-white drawings and colour plates to convey a graphic representation of the power of thought.Prominent Theosophists, Annie Besant and C. W. Leadbeater, were pioneers in asserting that thoughts are, indeed, things. Originally released in 1901, THOUGHT FORMS is a seminal work on what thoughts look like. It had an impact far beyond the circle of its primary readers and greatly influenced leading artists such as Piet Mondrian and Wassily Kandinsky.Simple in style and clearly written, THOUGHT FORMS is a classic of the Theosophical tradition that has as much to say in our own day as it did a century ago. It lucidly sets forth a way to conceive of the invisible realms within and around us, with implications both for how we view the world and how we act in it.Discussion includes the meaning of colour, thought forms built by music and the nature of helpful thoughts.

Cambridge University Press The Secret Doctrine The Synthesis of Science Religion and Philosophy Volume 3 Cambridge Library Collection Spiritualism and Esoteric Knowledge
Book SynopsisUkrainian-born Madame Helena Blavatsky (1831â1891) was a powerful and controversial member of the spiritualist world and for a time famous for her powers as a medium. She was a co-founder of the theosophy movement in the United States, which she later extended to Europe and India, drawing from her extensive global travels and her familiarity with a broad range of belief systems, from Asian religions to New Orleans voodoo, as well as secret societies such as the Freemasons. Drawing from Hinduism and Buddhism, theosophy aimed to understand the mystic powers of the universe and promote the study of other religions. The first two volumes of The Secret Doctrine were published in 1888, but this third volume was published in 1897 by spiritualist Annie Besant from Blavatsky's notes. It looks at some ancient spiritual teachings and mysteries, and the development of the practice of magic.Table of ContentsPreface Annie Besant; Introductory; 1. Preliminary survey; 2.

Broadview Press Ltd Autobiographical Sketches
Book SynopsisAnnie Wood Besant (1847-1933) was a problematic and notorious figure in Victorian England, questioning and then breaking from the Anglican Church to become an atheist, women’s rights advocate, and Freethinker. As editor of her own journal, Our Corner, she responded to inquiries about her life experiences by serializing her life story, which was published in 1885. After providing a vivid account of her trial, along with Charles Bradlaugh, for the right to publish birth control literature, Besant recounts her heartbreaking trial for custody of her daughter. With a critical and historical introduction by Carol Hanbery MacKay, this Broadview Edition includes comparative passages from An Autobiography, written in 1893 after Besant’s conversion to Theosophy. Contemporary reviews, excerpts from publications about issues such as Socialism and trade unionism, and additional examples of Besant’s writing about secularism and labour reform are also included.Trade Review“This important edition brings Annie Besant’s first autobiographical work back into print. Written before her conversion to Theosophy, Autobiographical Sketches details Besant’s remarkable spiritual and political transformation from wife of a Christian clergyman to celebrated campaigner for Freethought, secularism, women’s rights, and birth control. Carol Hanbery MacKay’s splendid introduction and supplementary materials offer an illuminating context for students and scholars alike. Altogether, the volume is a major contribution to the literature of feminism, autobiography, religion, and radical politics.” — Elizabeth Miller, University of California Davis“‘Naughty Annie’ (as the press called her) has been ill served by biographers and critics. This meticulous edition of her fascinating first foray into autobiography—before her extraordinary but quintessentially Victorian passage from secularism and Socialism to Theosophy and India—not only allows her to speak again for herself as a woman and a public figure, but, through the rich array of reviews, speeches, essays, and extended passages from her later Autobiography, also allows us to understand her against the full backdrop of her life and the times she helped to change.” — Joss Marsh, University of IndianaTable of ContentsAcknowledgementsIntroduction: Annie Besant’s First Foray into Self-WritingAnnie Besant: A Brief ChronologyA Note on the TextAutobiographical Sketches (1885)Appendix A: Publication of Autobiographical Sketches (1884-85) and Aftermath Reviews of Autobiographical Sketches Unsigned review, “Contemporary Literature: History and Biography,” The Westminster Review (July 1886) G.W.
