Esoteric Buddhism
Alfred Percy Sinnett was a British journalist and occultist who played an important part in the affairs of the Theosophical Society during its first generation. In the early 1880s A.P. Sinnett corresponded with the Mahatmas Koot Hoomi and Morya. In these letters the Masters gave Sinnett the basic ideas of Theosophy on the constitution of man, the planetary chain, the world periods, life after death in Devachan and Kâma-loka, the progress of humanity, Buddha and Nirvana. In 1883 Mr. Sinnett wrote Esoteric Buddhism based on his understanding of these teachings. This classic was the first simple exposition of Theosophy in modern times.
The Mahatma letters to A.P. Sinnett from the Mahatmas M. & K. H.
The Mahatma Letters to A.P. Sinnett is a book published in 1923 by A. Trevor Barker. The work consists of one-hundred and forty-five letters written by masters Koot Hoomi and Morya to Theosophical author Alfred Percy Sinnett (author of the much renowned work Esoteric Buddhism) between the years of 1880 and 1884. The letters are particularly important to the Theosophical Society and their wider movement because of their long elaborate discussions of the theosophical cosmic order and spiritual hierarchy. It is generally regarded as the most authoritative work of theosophy that is accessible to the general public.
Esoteric Buddhism
Alfred Percy Sinnett (18 January 1840 in London - 26 June 1921) was an English author and theosophist. This theory recognizes the evolution of the soul as a process that is quite continuous in itself, though carried out partly through the instrumentality of a great series of dissociated forms. Putting aside for the moment of profound metaphysics of the theory which trace the principle of life from the original first cause of the cosmos, we find the soul as an entity emerging from the animal kingdom, and passing into the earliest human forms, without being at that time ripe for the higher intellectual life with which the present state of humanity renders us familiar. But through successive in...
The Occult World
Alfred Percy Sinnett (1840-1921), a journalist and Theosophist, wrote frequently to members of the Brotherhood of Adepts, an occult organization. The famous Mahatmas Koot Hoomi and Morya corresponded via mail with Sinnett, and Sinnett used parts of this correspondence to compose The Occult World. Together, along with others, they were building The Theosophical Society. Sinnett was friends with many of the leading theosophists and spent a productive time in India. The organization's avowed object was at first the scientific investigation of psychic or so-called "spiritualistic" phenomena, after which its three chief objects were declared, namely (1) Brotherhood of man, without distinction of race, colour, religion, or social position; (2) the serious study of the ancient world-religions for purposes of comparison and the selection therefrom of universal ethics; (3) the study and development of the latent divine powers in man. The society has persisted through the decades and has branches or lodges scattered all over the world, some of which are in India, where its chief headquarters are established.
