Divine Feminine
Honorable Mention for the Wallace K. Ferguson Prize from the Canadian Historical AssociationChosen by Choice Magazine as an Outstanding Academic Title of 2003 In 1891, newspapers all over the world carried reports of the death of H. P. Blavatsky, the mysterious Russian woman who was the spiritual founder of the Theosophical Society. With the help of the equally mysterious Mahatmas who were her teachers, Blavatsky claimed to have brought the "ancient wisdom of the East" to the rescue of a materialistic West. In England, Blavatsky's earliest followers were mostly men, but a generation later the Theosophical Society was dominated by women, and theosophy had become a crucial part of feminist pol...
Handbook of the Theosophical Current
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.
Outside the Fold
Outside the Fold is a radical reexamination of religious conversion. Gauri Viswanathan skillfully argues that conversion is an interpretive act that belongs in the realm of cultural criticism. To that end, this work examines key moments in colonial and postcolonial history to show how conversion questions the limitations of secular ideologies, particularly the discourse of rights central to both the British empire and the British nation-state. Implicit in such questioning is an attempt to construct an alternative epistemological and ethical foundation of national community. Viswanathan grounds her study in an examination of two simultaneous and, she asserts, linked events: the legal emancipa...
The Science of Meditation
Coming in the wake of his earlier books, Yoga--The Art of Integration and The Nameless Experience which dwelt on the philosophy and psychology of Meditation, this work treats the subject from a purely practical standpoint. The theme of Meditation is discussed in terms of the three main constituents, namely, the Brain, the Habit mechanism and the Mind. The revitalisation, the modification and the transformation of the triad respectively would usher in the wholeness of spiritual life. In passing, the book discusses the way of spontaneous awakening of Kundalini, the biological energy the human body contains, which no longer, the author avers, requires any Hatha Yoga practice or the guidance of an expert. It is sincerely hoped that a practical treatment of the subject of meditation will help man to lead a healthy and creative life amidst his baffling psychological life.
Reincarnation
First Published in 1996. You may have lived before. As a matter of fact, you may have experienced countless lifetimes. This statement constitutes the basic premise of reincarnation, which is also called transmigration and metempsychosis. This volume explores the origins and development of the belief of reincarnation.
When Prophets Die
When the charismatic founder/leader of a religious movement dies, the popular belief is that the movement usually disintegrates. However, many new religions not only survive but prosper, despite leadership transition. In this book, prominent scholars examine what happened to eleven new movements following the deaths of their leaders, and why. An Introduction by J. Gordon Melton serves to integrate the case studies.
Abe and the Wee Folk
Abe is an extremely precocious child who has been reincarnated from many past lives as a Tibetan Buddhist Master. His mission is to introduce nature spirits – including fairies, gnomes, and fauns – to humanity. To gain credibility, Abe must get highly educated very quickly in mathematics and ecology. He is aided in his quest by many beings in the physical plane and elsewhere. Will he succeed and change minds? This Eastern metaphysical story involving nature spirits opens new worlds of possibilities. Notes the author, “I have tried to present the reality of the nature spirits that coexist with us and everything we do. It is these beings to which we are indebted for the sustaining management of this world. This includes directed growth of plants, animals, and even all matter that surrounds us.”
After the Death of Me
Reina is smart, irreverent, and wise beyond her years. At age sixteen, she dies. Shortly after seeing her physical body buried, Reina enters the astral world and meets her higher self. Her life just lived is reviewed instantly in detail. Afterward, she is led to a brightly lit city where Reina meets some of her family and friends, now all deceased, and her pal, Omar, who assists in her astral travels. Reina relearns her skills as anastral agent to help others in a variety of situations, both on the physical and astral planes. These acts of benefit, sometimes dangerous, are instigated and supervised by her teacher and guru, Master Eli. Reina attends a class taught by Eli designed to increase her awareness and spiritual evolution. She then discovers her soul mate, Ian, who has been dead for five years. Ian was a monk in his past life and is a gifted guitar player. Reina is also a musician, so they share their love of music. At the end of their time on the astral plane, Reina and Ian plan out the lives to be experienced for their next incarnation. They proceed thereafter to the mental plane for suspected years of blissful existence.
