Meditation

"We do not hear the sun rise. So too, the greatest moments in a man's life come quietly." With this beautiful quotation, the author begins his introduction to meditation. He draws from an esoteric tradition where meditation is called occult meditation, because it aims at uncovering the hidden laws of nature and showing the way to unification with our own inner source, the soul, through contemplation and illumination. Niels Brønsted (1938-2020) combines theory and practical use in a clear and thought-through way. By means of practical exercises he leads his reader safely through the phases and technique of occult meditation. This makes Meditation - The Royal Road to the Soul a much needed handbook for the person who wants to make meditation a significant part of his or her life.

Prayer

We are presently living at a truly extraordinary time of profound transformation. Most people, wherever they may be living in the world, are presented with very real and great dangers but equally real and perhaps even greater opportunities. To survive and thrive in the 21st century it is essential to activate our intuition and to awaken our spiritual consciousness. The royal road, the fundamental skill, to achieve this is prayer. Integrating the teachings of the spiritual tradition, of the Eastern Orthodox Church, and of Psychosynthesis, the author who has personally experienced the theory and practice of prayer in his own being life and observed many different people in different cultures do the same, aims at making prayer become conscious: alive, meaningful, and effective. While the essential prayers were drawn from the Christian tradition, the same can be done with prayers coming from any valid tradition. The "key" here is to be able to contact and drawn down the Light from the inner Source that already dwells at the core of our being.

  • Publisher: BRILL

Few religious currents have been as influential as the Theosophical. Yet few currents have been so under-researched, and the Brill Handbook of the Theosophical Current thus represents pioneering research. A first section surveys the main people and events involved in the Theosophical Society from its inception to today, and outlines the Theosophical worldview. A second, substantial section covers most significant religions to emerge in the wake of the Theosophical Society - Anthroposophy, the Point Loma community, the I AM religious activity, the Summit Lighthouse Movement, the New Age, theosophical UFO religions, and numerous others. Finally, the interaction of the Theosophical current with contemporary culture - including gender relations, art, popular fiction, historiography, and science - are discussed at length.
