The White Spark proclaims a daring and expansive vision: that the “white spark”—the primal vacuum-cell of Nature—is nothing less than the right hand of God, the unseen generator behind every process, form, and force in the universe. According to Orville Livingston Leach, this universal principle is the parent of electricity, combustion, crystallization, magnetism, plant and animal life, radiant energy, and consciousness itself. It is the agent behind snowflakes and stars, radium and roses, wireless transmission and human vitality—a hidden architecture of divine power shaping all existence.

Living together amicably, creatively, in complete relationship with one another – if that is what is essential then we need not only a different kind of mind but also a different quality of affection, love. What is the function of a religious mind? Our struggle in life is dualistic: good and bad, right and wrong, holy and unholy, the ideal and the fact. There is only the fact, not the ideal. Is it possible to look at life as though you are looking for the first time? What is the content of the unconscious?

William Wynn Westcott was a theosophist, Freemason, and Rosicrucian and one of the cofounders of the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn. In his own personal spiritual belief system he subscribed to the concept of successive lives in the form of earthly experiences, as was almost universal in the doctrines of the ancient world. Here he examines the changes that occur to an individual upon death (spiritually speaking, of course) and what that means for how a person should choose to live his or her life.

Leadbeater addresses the sorrow, grief, and despair we all sometimes experience in this mortal coil, especially when someone close to us has passed beyond the veil. He explains how our mourning for those who have transitioned beyond a terrestrial life affects those who now exist in spirit form.

Анни Безант известна прежде всего как первая ученица и последовательница Елены Блаватской. В то же время свою деятельность в Теософском обществе она сочетала с активной борьбой за права бедняков и женщин, участием в политическом движении за независимость Индии, основанием масонских лож в разных частях Британской империи. Знакомство с "Тайной доктриной" Елены Блаватской, а впоследствии и с ее автором определило судьбу Анни Безант. Еще одной вехой в ее становлении как теософа стало сотрудничество с Чарльзом Ледбитером.

SOBRE ESTE LIBRO La palabra oráculo se deriva del latín oraculum, que surgió del verbo orare, y que significa orar. La voz del corazón es el oráculo mayor, la fuente intuitiva y reveladora de todas las predicciones posibles, el oráculo sagrado de la existencia, desde cuya tribuna los Ángeles anuncian tu destino, el oráculo de Dios, la pitonisa que en la cultura grecoromana anunciaba los designios del cielo para cada unidad palpitante que la consultaba. Así un oráculo es una fina antena cósmica de intuición superior, de muy profunda e íntima inspiración. Oráculo de Amor es una...

Die Theosophie (1904) stellt Rudolf Steiners klassische Darstellung des anthroposophischen Welt- und Menschenverständnisses dar. Sie dokumentiert Steiners intensives Eintauchen in die theosophische Gedankenwelt Annie Besants und Charles Leadbeaters um die Jahrhundertwende und seinen Versuch einer Harmonisierung derselben mit seiner eigenen, stark vom deutschen Idealismus sowie von der Entwicklungslehre Ernst Haeckels geprägten "Philosophie der Freiheit" von 1894.

There is no mind without idea, thought and verbalization. There is no experiencer and the experience; there is only a state of experiencing. One cannot think about immortality. If one can live in the state of only experiencing then there is a state in which ideation has stopped altogether. Is it possible to have direct experience of that which is not thinkable and which cannot be put into words?

The subject of my discourses I have called "The Laws of the Higher Life", because so many people in dealing with religion that has to do with the Higher Life seem inclined to remove it from the realm of law, bringing it into some strange region of arbitrary whim and results without endeavor, of failure without weakness.

In questo libro si vuol dare una descrizione di alcune parti del mondo soprasensibile. chi voglia ammettere soltanto quello sensibile, riterrà tale descrizione un vacuo prodotto della fantasia. Ma chi voglia cercar le vie che conducono fuori del mondo dei sensi, arriverà presto a comprendere che la vita umana acquista valore e significato soltanto se si penetri con lo sguardo in un altro mondo. Questa penetrazione non distoglie l'uomo, come molti temono, dalla vita "reale". Poiché solo per tale via egli impara a star saldo e sicuro nella vita.

What is the point of going to a university, getting a degree and disappearing into the vast structure of society? Q: How shall we approach the idea of study?
