An A Treatise on White Magic book largely because of the way it is supposedly written. Alice Bailey channels "the tibetan" whose treatise this is. It is quite detailed esoterica about causing good in the inner realms. I don't know if A Treatise on White Magic ascribe to it, but I certainly learned a lot by reading it. Nov 18, Bodo Balsys rated it it was amazing. Fantastic book relating to the taking of up to the third initiation for disciples - read it many times and you will always find more depth to it. Dec 07, Jason West rated it it was amazing. Subjectively, this book doesn't interest me much as it follows a completely A Treatise on White Magic path than I do and I see it as just another book with entry level information. BUT Objectively, I think this is an excellent book for a beginner! It has a ton of valuable information and great ideas for further thinking and research in such a A Treatise on White Magic volume! I A Treatise on White Magic it if you are just starting out your journey in the occult. Oct 07, Steven Chernikeeff rated it it was amazing. Outstanding classic in every way. Wonderful stuff! Aug 18, Eddie rated it really liked it. One of the first of the books by A. Bailey that I read although students had spoken of Consciousness of the Atom before it. White Magic introduces the concept of Will to Good. Good will. It's best not to think in racial terms when thinking of the White Magic and the White Brotherhood also introduced in this book. How devoted I was to this book in my youth! And how it then de-humanised me Jan 12, Rae Coleman added it.

This book contains the Fifteen Rules for Magic soul control — the soul, the White Magician, becoming manifest through its own inherent magical powers. Man is essentially and inherently divine. The soul unmanifest in its essential being, manifest through the nature of its personality equipment, is always a source of mystery. It evades the analytical concrete mind. It reveals its true self to the illumined mind fused with the open heart, seeking not to grasp and to hold for personal progress, but to wield magical power in service. The power of the soul is always available to the one who seeks, as an aspirant to accepted discipleship, to become of practical service in his own peculiar times, state and environment. The soul is the means whereby mankind evolves a consciousness of divinity, redeems gross matter and liberates the pure flame of spirit from the limitation of form. Product Details About the Author. BAILEY From her conservative British background, Alice Bailey's life led her in many directions, but always towards the time when she acquired: 1 A synthesis of outlook and understanding leading to an absolute conviction that A Treatise on White Magic divine life pervades and animates the one humanity; 2 A realization that the Plan for humanity requires the cooperation and service of trained and dedicated human beings intelligently informed about world affairs, in collaboration with those who form the spiritual Hierarchy, the inner government of the planet. From that point on, Alice Bailey's life work became an integral part of this synthesis and this realization. Without losing any of her very human qualities and A Treatise on White Magic, her soul took up its commitment to her Master, and her personality provided full cooperation in the field of her accepted service. Basically Alice Bailey's work developed as a duality, her discipleship service which included the establishment of the Arcane School; and her initially reluctant agreement to work with the Tibetan, Djwhal Khul, in the writing of a series of spiritual books. A total of twenty-four books were A Treatise on White Magic by A Treatise on White Magic Bailey. These books constitute a continuation of the Ageless Wisdom, a body of esoteric teaching handed down from ancient times in a form which is always suitable to each period. Intended to precede and condition the New Age, the Alice Bailey books offer A Treatise on White Magic unparalleled spiritual approach to the teaching on Shamballa and the Path of spiritual evolution; the spiritual Hierarchy; the new discipleship and training in meditation as a form of service; the teaching on the seven rays and the new A Treatise on White Magic of the soul; and the common thread of truth linking all the major world faiths. In addition to her work as an author and lecturer, Alice Bailey established the Lucis Publishing Company, making the teachings of Djwhal Khul available to spiritual seekers and students around the A Treatise on White Magic for over 75 years. Reprinting of the books is financed through a revolving Fund under the administration of the Lucis Trust, a non-profit organization also founded by Alice A. No royalties are paid and copyrights are owned by the Lucis Trust. Through these organizations, Alice Bailey provided for the continued publication of these teachings beyond her physical lifetime.

A strange and original little story, charmingly fantastic, but full of poetic feeling and, what is more, of deep philosophical and occult truths, for those who can perceive the ground-work it is built upon. A fresh Eclogue of Virgil in its first part, descriptive of Alpine scenery in the Tyrol, where the author “dreamt” his adventure, with “shining glaciers glistening like vast mirrors in the light of the rising sun,” deep ravines with rushing streams dancing between the cliffs, blue lakes slumbering among the mead- ows, and daisy-sprinkled valleys resting in the shadow of old pine forests. Gradually as the hero of the “Adventure” ascended higher and higher, he began los- ing the sense of the world of the real, to pass unconsciously into the land of waking dreams.

  • Madame Blavatsky and CW Leadbeater
    Madame Blavatsky and C. W. Leadbeater: A Timeline Compiled by Pedro Oliveira Madame Blavatsky in London, 1884 H. P. Blavatsky was regarded by the Mahatmas as ‘an initiated Chela’, their ‘direct agent’ and someone whom they had looked for over one hundred years in other to present the Occult doctrine to the world. She received special training from them in Tibet in order to prepare herself for such a task and, together with Col. Henry Steel Olcott, William Q. Judge and others, formed the Theosophical Society in 1875. According to the received tradition about C. W. Leadbeater, Madame Blavatsky did not care for him, she ignored him, was indifferent to him and even hated him. The timeline presented below tells a different history: one of encouragement, support and inspiration. 1st November 1884 On 31st October 1884, CWL received, by post, a letter from Mahatma K.H. in reply to his letter to Mahatma which he had tried to send in March 1884, trough the agency of the English medium William Eglinton. Upon receiving it he returned to London from Bramshott, late at night, in order to show the Master’s letter to Madame Blavatsky and ask her to forward his reply to the Mahatma’s letter. He had suggested that CWL should spend a few months at Adyar. What follows is CWL’s account of what happened next. (From How Theosophy Came to Me by C. W. Leadbeater) Even at that hour a number of devoted friends were gathered in Mrs. Oakley’s drawing- room to say farewell to Madame Blavatsky, who seated herself in an easy-chair by the fireside.

  • The Theosophical Society's Ongoing Problem of Emotion and Control
    Taming the Astral Body: The Theosophical Society’s Ongoing Problem of Emotion and Control John L. Crow Florida State University Abstract In New York City in 1875, a group interested in Spiritualism and occult science founded what would become the Theosophical Society. Primarily the creation of Henry Steel Olcott and Helena Petrovna Blavatsky, the Theosophical Society went through a number of early incarnations. One original version promised to teach occult powers. After Blavatsky found that she could not honor earlier promises to teach occultism, she shifted the focus of the Society to one that promoted Universal Brotherhood instead, highlighting notions of the body and demanding the control of emotion as a means to rebuff demands for training. With this refocusing, Blavatsky reestablished control of the Society and asserted herself as the central channel of esoteric knowledge. Thus, by shifting the focus from the attainment of occult powers to the more ambiguous “spiritual enlightenment,” Blavatsky erected an elaborate, centralized system of delayed spiritual gratification, a system contingent upon the individual’s adoption of specific morals and values, while simultaneously maintaining control of the human body on all its levels: spiritual, social, physical, mental, and especially emotional. Introduction During a meeting of the Theosophical Society in New York City on October 18, 1876, the co-founder and legal counsel for the newly established organization, William Quan Judge (1851– 96), gave a lecture about his personal experiences in the study of Theosophy. He spoke about his recent experiences of astrally traveling and implanting his thoughts and ideas into the minds of others. He did this through focusing his will and commanding his “double,” or astral body, to go to these places and influence others.

  • The Principles of the Yoga-Philosophy of the Rosicrucians and Alchemists
    THE PRINCIPLES OF THE YOGA-PHILOSOPHY OF THE ROSICRUCIANS AND ALCHEMISTS By Franz Hartmann The following pages were originally intended to form the basis of a separate work, entitled “A Key to the Secret Symbols of the Rosicrucians.” As the idea of bringing out such a book has been abandoned for the present, they have been added as a suitable appendix to the foregoing historical notes.* It will be found that the doctrines presented herein contain the most profound secrets, especially in regard to the “resurrection of the flesh.” They go to show that the physical body is neither a useless nor a despicable thing, and that Matter is as necessary to Spirit, as Spirit to Matter. Without the presence of a living body no resurrection could take place; neither could the Spirit have any relative existence without the presence of a material form. The state of Nirvana is not to be attained by merely dreaming about it, and before Man can rise superior to anything he must have attained that to which he desires to become superior. Only from the soul resurrected within the body of flesh arises the glorified spirit. * [i.e., to the first six chapters of In the Pronaos of the Temple of Wisdom, a mainly historical account of Rosicrucianism, to which they formed an appendix. – T.S.] PRÆSENTIA MUNIAMUR EIUS IN OBITU NOSTRO. Ex Deo nascimur. In Jesu morimur. Reviviscimus per Spiritum Sanctum. IN THE PRONAOS OF THE TEMPLE OF THE TRUE ROSY CROSS Our salvation is the life of Christ in us. The place or state wherein the true Rosicrucian lives is far too exalted and glorious to be described in words.

From Blavatsky Collected Writings, (BIBLIOGRAPHY) VIII pp. 439-57.1 E WAS BORN AT DONAUWÖRTH, a small town on the Danube in Bavaria, November 22nd, 1838. His father, Dr. Karl Hartmann, was a well-known H physician in that town; his mother, Elize von Stack, was of Irish descent, her ancestors having been descendants of Caolbha, the 123rd and last King of the Irish race and 47th King of Ulster. His mother’s family emigrated to France after the execution of Charles I, and afterwards to Bavaria during the French Revolution. When Franz was about one year old, his parents moved to Kempten, in Southern Ba- varia, where his father had been appointed Government physician. It is there that Franz was educated, first under the guidance of his grandfather who had served the French army under Napoleon, and later in the local public school. Since his very early youth, Franz felt as if he had two distinct personalities in him: one was a mystic, a dreamer and an idealist, while the other was obstinate and self- willed, inclined to all sorts of mischief. He loved solitude, shunned the company of schoolmates, and revelled in the midst of nature, where intercourse with the spirits of nature was to him a very real thing. He writes: There I could dream my mystical dreams undisturbed and give my imagination full rein.

  • The Life and Doctrines of Jacob Boehme
    PERSONAL CHRISTIANITY a science The Doctrines of Jacob Boehme THE GOD-TAUGHT PHILOSOPHER WITH AN INTRODUCTION AND NOTES by FRANZ HARTMANN, M.D. author of "magic, white and black," "paracelsus", etc. MACOY PUBLISHING CO. NEW YORK. 1919 COPYRIGHT, 1919, by B. HARDING LUZAC & CO., LONDON preface This work, which has been out of print for some years, was originally published under the title, "Jacob Boehme." The present title has been selected as conveying a clearer meaning of the message the book contains. In the preface of the earlier edition Dr. Franz Hartmann writes: "The following is an attempt to present an epitome of the principal doctrines of Jacob Boehme in a certain systematic order, so as to afford a general view of them and to serve as an introduction to the study of Boehme©s works." "The greatest obstacle to the understanding of the mysteries of the religion of the living Christ, is the very narrow view which we have become accustomed to take of them, according to the merely external and superficial interpretation of the Old and New Testaments. A study of Boehme©s writings, by means of entering into the spirit in which they were written, is sure to expand the mind and to elevate the heart of the reader, giving him a greater and more sublime conception of God, Nature, and Man, than any other book of which I know." As a result of the greatest war in history, a spiritual awakening has taken place throughout the world. Proximity of death in battle and its reflection of anxious waiting in the home, have forced a conviction that God is a reality.

  • Incidents in the Life of Madame Blavatsky by A.P
    Incidents in the Life of Madame Blavatsky by A.P. Sinnett Incidents in the Life of Madame Blavatsky by A.P. Sinnett Compiled from information supplied by her relatives and friends The Theosophical Publishing House, London 1913 AUTHOR'S PREFACE [Page 5] THE first edition of this book, published in 1886, was issued during Madame Blavatsky's lifetime as an indirect protest against the cruel and slanderous attack on her embodied in the Report to the Committee of the Psychical Research Society appointed to investigate the phenomena connected with the Theosophical Society. This Report was very effectually answered at the time, and the passages in my original book especially relating to it are hardly worth reproduction now. But the facts relating to Madame Blavatsky's life which it then dealt with are more interesting now than ever, in view of the gigantic development of the Theosophical Society; and the original edition having been long out of print, the present edition is prepared to meet a widespread desire. I need not now reproduce dissertations which the original edition contained in deprecation of the incredulity that still held sway twenty-five years ago in reference to the reality of occult phenomena. A great change in this respect has come over cultivated thinking within that period, and appeals for tolerance on behalf of those who give testimony concerning occult super-psychical phenomena of which they may have been witness are no longer necessary.[Page 6] For the rest, the book is now republished as written, no attempt having been made to recast its language to suit the present time, when the subject of the memoir is no longer with us; but I have added some notes where later events or experience have seemed to claim them.
