Collection of Esoteric Writings
Excerpt from Collection of Esoteric Writings Whilst presenting this little volume to the public, we cannot but pay due tribute to the memory of one who had done such good service to the cause of Occult Science. The late lamented Mr. T. Subba Row, B.A., B.L., of the Madras University, was one of the highest Occultists of Southern India. We tried our utmost to collect as many facts relating to his life as we could possibly get from his relatives and friends, to enable us to write a short sketch of his life to go with this book. But, we regret to say, that our endeavours in this direction have been without fruit. We have, therefore, had no alternative but to reproduce the notice of his death ta...
Accelerating Human Evolution by Theosophical Initiation
The main subjects of analysis in the present book are the stages of initiation in the grand scheme of Theosophical evolution. These initiatory steps are connected to an idea of evolutionary self-development by means of a set of virtues that are relative to the individual’s position on the path of evolution. The central thesis is that these stages were translated from the “Hindu” tradition to the “Theosophical” tradition through multifaceted “hybridization processes” in which several Indian members of the Theosophical Society partook. Starting with Annie Besant’s early Theosophy, the stages of initiation are traced through Blavatsky’s work to Manilal Dvivedi and T. Subba Row...

The Idyll of the White Lotus
The Idyll of the White Lotus is a mystical and symbolic novel by theosophist Mabel Collins (M.C.). The story may be symbolic on many levels, the most common interpretation being an analogy of the human soul and its development. T. Subba Row, whose commentary is includede in an appendix, also suggests that it is likely based on a true story. According to him, the story "truly depicts the Egyptian faith and the Egyptian priesthood, when their religion had already begun to lose its purity and [had] degenerated . . . [being] unscrupulously used for selfish and immoral purposes." Sensa (the hero of the story) is represented to be the last great hierophant of Egypt. Thus, for those interested in a...
