Secret Doctrine Commentary/Stanzas I-IV: Transactions of the Blavatsky Lodge : With a Section on Dreams [Facsimile] [Paperback]

Helena Petrovna Blavatsky (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: May 1, 1994

In response to the demand for further light on the Stanzas of Dzyan which form the basis of The Secret Doctrine, H. P. Blavatsky answered a variety of questions at weekly meetings of the Blavatsky Lodge of The Theosophical Society in London. Her replies illumine many important facets of the teachings that are often difficult for students and inquirers. The discussions cover the first four stanzas of Volume I and treat such topics as cosmic genesis, universal mind, man's inner nature, the relation between consciousness and substance, religious symbolism, and the evolution of worlds and men. Of particular interest is a section on dreams.
