The Secret Doctrine of the Rosicrucians

The Secret Doctrine of the Rosicrucians – William Walker Atkinson

The student of the history of occultism and the esoteric teachings, and even the average reader of current books and magazines, finds many references to “The Rosicrucians,” a supposed ancient secret society devoted to the study of occult doctrines and the manifestation of occult powers. But when such person seeks to obtain detailed information concerning this supposed ancient “order” he finds himself baffled and defeated. Before acknowledging the futility of the quest, however, he usually investigates one or more so-called “orders” having as a part of their title the word “Rosicrucian,” only to find himself invited to join such “order” upon the payment of a fee or fees ranging from Read more.../Mehr lesen ...

The Pilgrim’s Progress

The Pilgrim’s Progress – John Bunyan

The Pilgrim’s Progress was published in February 1678. The irresistible charm of this book which gratified the imagination of the reader with all the action and scenery of a fairy tale, which exercised his ingenuity by setting him to discover a multitude of curious analogies, which interested his feelings for human beings, frail like himself, and struggling with temptations from within and from without, which every moment drew a smile from him by some stroke of quaint yet simple pleasantry, and nevertheless left on his mind a sentiment of reverence for God and of sympathy for man is still in effect today.

Aradia – Gospel Of The Witches

Aradia – Gospel Of The Witches – Charles Godfrey Leland

Indefatigable in research, Mr. Leland collects from the mouths of Italian peasants all the information still surviving concerning witches and their rites. Much of this he incorporated in his previous writings, and much more-some of it, we are glad to think, on the point of appearance-has yet to see the light. It is difficult to over-estimate the interest of these survivals in Italy of pagan faith and rite, and it is eminently desirable that so much of them as possible should be preserved. They are on the verge of disappearance, and what is not now reclaimed will inevitably perish. On this point Mr. Leland insists. There are still, however, some Read more.../Mehr lesen ...

The Book of Tea

The Book of Tea – Kakuzo Okakura

The ’Book of Tea’ is nothing less than an absolutely correct interpretation of Japanese life. Mr. Okakura came to the United States as a special commissioner of the Japanese Government to examine into American art. He has made a really careful study of this subject. What he has to say about Japan is not only well said but worth saying.
