Download or read book Esoteric Christianity Or the Lesser Mysteries (Classic Reprint) written by Annie Besant and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2016-07-22 with total page 424 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Esoteric Christianity or the Lesser Mysteries The object of this book is to suggest cer tain lines of thought as to the deep truths underlying Christianity, truths generally overlooked, and only too often denied. The generous wish to Share with all what is precious, to spread broadcast priceless truths, to shut out none from the. Illumina tion of true knowledge, has resulted in a zeal without discretion that has vulgarised Christianity, and has presented its teachings in a form that often repels the heart and alienates the intellect. The command to preach the Gospel to every creature though admittedly of doubtful authenticity - has been interpreted as forbidding the teaching of the Gnosis to a few, and has apparently erased the less popular saying.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The author Besant's goal is to restore the secret truth behind the Christian doctrine in mysterious Christianity. In the early centuries A.D., after increasingly strict hierarchies began to bury these truths, only a few fellow practitioners knew about them, and they communicated them privately, usually in obscure language. With the growing public interest in the Gnostic Gospels and the mystery of Christianity, this extraordinary book first published by Besant in 1901 attracted new attention.

Book Synopsis Handbook of the Theosophical Current by :
Download or read book Handbook of the Theosophical Current written by and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2013-01-08 with total page 506 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 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.
Book Synopsis Initiation into the Mysteries of the Ancient World by : Jan N. Bremmer
Download or read book Initiation into the Mysteries of the Ancient World written by Jan N. Bremmer and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2014-07-28 with total page 286 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The ancient Mysteries have long attracted the interest of scholars, an interest that goes back at least to the time of the Reformation. After a period of interest around the turn of the twentieth century, recent decades have seen an important study of Walter Burkert (1987). Yet his thematic approach makes it hard to see how the actual initiation into the Mysteries took place. To do precisely that is the aim of this book. It gives a ‘thick description’ of the major Mysteries, not only of the famous Eleusinian Mysteries, but also those located at the interface of Greece and Anatolia: the Mysteries of Samothrace, Imbros and Lemnos as well as those of the Corybants. It then proceeds to look at the Orphic-Bacchic Mysteries, which have become increasingly better understood due to the many discoveries of new texts in the recent times. Having looked at classical Greece we move on to the Roman Empire, where we study not only the lesser Mysteries, which we know especially from Pausanias, but also the new ones of Isis and Mithras. We conclude our book with a discussion of the possible influence of the Mysteries on emerging Christianity. Its detailed references and up-to-date bibliography will make this book indispensable for any scholar interested in the Mysteries and ancient religion, but also for those scholars who work on initiation or esoteric rituals, which were often inspired by the ancient Mysteries.

Book excerpt: Knowledge of spiritual truths must be obtained, from the divine Spirit whose temple we are. In other words it must come from that divine indwelling Spirit, that "mind of Christ" or inner light that sheds itself upon our lower mind. This is the way of Esoteric Christianity. It is not a version of Hinduism, or Buddhism, or Taoism, or any other religion. It is Divine Wisdom. It belongs equally to all religions but is exclusive to none. This is that "true Light which lighteth every man that cometh into the world"[.John, 1,9]. Esoteric Christianity appeals to the few who hunger for more than ordinary religious teachings can give them.

Book Synopsis A Thematic Access-Oriented Bibliography of Jesus's Resurrection by : Michael J. Alter
Download or read book A Thematic Access-Oriented Bibliography of Jesus's Resurrection written by Michael J. Alter and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2019-12-31 with total page 602 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The keystone of Christianity is Jesus’s physical, bodily resurrection. Present-day scholars can be significantly challenged as they forage through voluminous documents on the resurrection of Jesus. The literature measures well over seven thousand sources in English-language books alone. This makes finding specific sources that are most relevant for specific scholarly purposes an arduous task. Even when a specific book is relevant, finding the parts of the book that are most relevant to the resurrection rather than other topics often requires additional effort. A Thematic Access-Oriented Bibliography of Jesus’s Resurrection addresses these challenges in several ways. First, the bibliography organizes more than seven thousand English sources into twelve main categories and then thirty-four subcategories, which are designed to help you find the most relevant literature quickly and efficiently. Embedded are pro and con arguments which support efficient access through brief annotations and then annotate the diversity and complexity of the field of religion by including sources that represent a diverse range of views: theistic (e.g., Christian, Jewish, Muslim, etc.), agnostic, and nontheistic. The objective of this bibliography is to provide convenient access to relevant sources from a variety of perspectives, allowing you to browse or find the one source accurately and with ease.
Book Synopsis The Sworn Book of Honorius by : Honorius of Thebes
Download or read book The Sworn Book of Honorius written by Honorius of Thebes and published by Nicolas-Hays, Inc.. This book was released on 2016-05-01 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As the title testifies, students were sworn to secrecy before being given access to this magic text, and only a few manuscripts have survived. Bits of its teachings, such as the use of the magic whistle for summoning spirits, are alluded to in other texts. Another key element of its ritual, the elaborate “Seal of God,” has been found in texts and amulets throughout Europe. Interest in The Sworn Book of Honorius has grown in recent years, yet no modern translations have been attempted—until now. Purporting to preserve the magic of Solomon in the face of intense persecution by religious authorities, this text includes one of the oldest and most detailed magic rituals. It contains a complete system of magic including how to attain the divine vision, communicate with holy angels, and control aerial, earthly, and infernal spirits for practical gain. Largely ignored by historians until recently, this text is an important witness to the transmission of Kabbalah and Jewish mysticism to European Hermeticists.
