The
Avatar earned first-class honors in Philosophy, Politics and Economics at
Oxford University, a doctorate in Philosophy, and then was selected to be an
Oxford Don in philosophy and politics. He lectured throughout Europe and also
in Africa, and his extensive writings have been published by Oxford University
Press and Concord Grove Press. He also lectured for many years at the United
Lodge of Theosophists in Santa Barbara, where he also founded the Institute of
World Culture.
The
spiritually penetrating essays in this volume were written for the expressed
purpose of shedding the pristine light of universal Theosophy on the path of
spiritual self-regeneration in the service of humanity.
The
Theosophical philosophy is predicated on the ageless truth that divine wisdom
exists, and that wise beings exist who dynamically embody it in world history;
that sages and seers still grace the globe and continually oversee the
spiritual, mental and physical evolution of man and nature. The secret Society
of Sages that guides human progress periodically sends forth one of their own
to sound afresh the Divine Philosophy and exemplify the spiritual life in all
its richness and mystery. Such an enlightened spiritual teacher articulates
eternal but forgotten truths in ingenious ways, adopting modes that inspire the
mind, release soul perception, and cut through the miasma of an age.
The wide-ranging articles in this volume span the
spectrum of human thought from the metaphysical to the mystical, the ethical to
the psychological, the spiritual to the material. They reveal the fundamental
basis of religion, philosophy and science. The assimilation of these essays
turns us back upon ourselves and releases that laser-like insight that allows
us to increasingly discern the true, the good, and the beautiful in all
religious teachings, philosophical musings, and scientific discoveries. When
carefully meditated upon and skillfully applied to the realm of self-chosen
duties, they purify the mind, cleanse the heart, and uplift the human
condition.
