I immediately pounced on this book since Dion Fortune is, without a doubt, a leading authority on energy work and spiritual subjects. I found this book to expound on many of her previous titles, with an especially interesting and in-depth explanation of how the chakras align with the Spheres on the Tree of Life. There is also a vivid and effective meditation on the Healing Temple of Asclepios that makes it just that much more of a gem. Such interesting subjects are covered as esoteric anatomy; the four-fold elemental constitution of Man; the manifestation of dis-ease through astral, mental, spiritual and physical levels of being; and especially informative is the logical and intuitive approach used to explain many things which personal experience has shown to be true, and which other books on this subject have expressed no knowledge or experience of. It is a necessary book for all those interested in the healing arts, energy work, or the Western Mystery Tradition. The Introduction by Gareth Knight makes it just that much more indispensible! It challenges all who read it to think and become more AWARE...of both themselves and the universe.

This newly published book by Dion Fortune will be of interest not only to those working in healing, but to anyone pursuing inner development and spiritual service. Her emphasis on healing based on the Higher Self being in conscious contact with the personality has broad relevance. Her discussion of disease is balanced and careful, distinguishing the various levels of being at which disorder may arise. Information on the chakras and the qabalistic tree should be helpful to all spiritual seekers. The introduction by Gareth Knight places the book in historical context, and gives the fascinating story of its genesis. This is a book not to be missed.
