Book Description
The active principle is attracted by the passive and the Great Nag, the serpent emblem of the eternity, attracts its tail to its mouth forming thereby a circle in that incessant pursuit of the negative by the positive. The two opposing forces, unconscious and non-existing when separated, they become consciousness and life when brought together. On the post-mortem disintegration of the constituent parts of man and their return their respective source. It is not part of the evolutionary law that the human mind, our fifth principle, should be fully developed before the Fifth Round. The Seeress of Prévorst is an example of a Fifth Rounder; Count St. Germain, of a Sixth Rounder. Confucius and Plato were Fifth Rounders. While Gautama Buddha and Shankaracharya are also termed Sixth Rounders, allegorically, the former is still higher and greater than all Fifth Rounders. However, precocious minds on this Round are abnormal. Monads are not discrete principles, limited or conditioned, but rays from One Universal and Absolute Principle. The entrance into a dark room through the same aperture of one ray of sunlight following another will not constitute two rays, but one ray intensified.

Book Description
Mahatmas can travel in their inner or astral body, preserve full command of all their intelligence, and condense their “phantom” form into visibility or dissolve it into invisibility. But They are not accident-proof for They are living men in living bodies. Their Mayavi-Rupa is furnished by the Auric Egg. At death, Their apparitional or astral body becomes as solid and tangible as was the late physical body. – When the body of an Adept is entirely at the command of the Inner Man, – When the Spiritual Self is completely reunited with its seventh principle even during the lifetime of the personality, — When the Astral Man or Personal Self has become so purified that he has gradually assimilated all the qualities and attributes of the middle nature (Buddhi and Manas in their terrestrial aspect), Then it can be said that the material lower self substitutes itself for the spiritual Higher Self, and is thenceforth capable of living an independent life on earth. Mahatmas are able to desert their bodies, which live on from that point until the day of death of the body entirely devoid of a soul. But the influence of the Adept on the atoms, and consequently on all new physical atoms coming into the form, is such that no evil influence enters and the life led by that body is harmless and often actively good. There are two types of voluntary and conscious incarnations: those of Nirmanakayas, and those undertaken by the probationary chelas who are on trial.

Book Description
In Esotericism there are two Avalokiteshvaras, First and Second Logos, or Father and Son. Avalokiteshvara is both the unmanifested Father and the manifested Son, the latter proceeding from, and identical with, the other; namely, the Parabrahm and Jivatman, the Universal and the individualized seventh Principle in man, the Passive and the Active. Rhys Davids is like the Cape Settlers who lived over diamond mines without suspecting it. He was an atheist and a materialist.

Book Description
Neither the physical nor the metaphysical Science are of interest to the true philanthropist, except in the degree of their potentiality of moral results, and in proportion of their usefulness to mankind. Nature works slowly but incessantly towards the evolution of conscious life out of inert material. Every thought passes into the inner world and, by coalescing with an elemental, it becomes an active intelligence. Thus a good thought is perpetuated as an active beneficent power; an evil one, as a maleficent demon. The Buddhist calls this impulse-seed his Skandha; the Hindu, his Karma; the Adept evolves these shapes consciously; other men throw them off unconsciously. Every form of life is sustained by countless other lives. If you offer nothing in return, you are like a thief. The building ant, the busy bee, the nest-building bird accumulate, each in their own humble way, as much cosmic energy in its potential form as a Haydn, a Plato, or a ploughman turning his furrow. They thus rob nature instead of enriching her, and will all in the degree of their intelligence find themselves accountable. Exact experimental Science has nothing to do with morality, virtue, or philanthropy. Her cold classification of facts outside man can only benefit the career of her professors. The Initiated Adept is the efflorescence of his age. Few ever appear in a single century. The cycles must run their rounds. Periods of mental and moral light and darkness succeed each other, as day does night. The major and minor yugas must be accomplished according to the established order of things. And we, borne along on the mighty tide, can only modify and direct some of its minor currents. If we had the powers of the imaginary Personal God, and the universal and immutable laws were but toys to play with, then indeed might we have created conditions that would have turned this earth into an Arcadia for lofty souls. But having to deal with an immutable Law, being ourselves its creatures, we have had to do what we could and rest thankful. Modern education enthrones scepticism and imprisons spiritualism. The boisterousness of animal passions stifles spirituality. What else could one expect of men so nearly related to the lower kingdom, from which they evolved? The era of blind faith is gone; that of enquiry is here. Enquiry that only unmasks error, without discovering anything upon which the soul can build, will but make iconoclasts. The noble aim of the progressive mind is to furnish the building blocks for a universal religious philosophy. A philosophy impregnable to scientific assault, because itself the finality of absolute science; and, a religion worthy of the name. The main aim of the Theosophical Society is to root out superstition and scepticism, and to help man shape his future. The cis-Himalayan Mahatmas will not be thwarted in their philanthropic attempts to save humanity from itself until that day when the new continent of thought is firmly established.

Book Description
1. The supreme energy resides in the Buddhi: latent when wedded to Atman alone; active and irresistible when galvanized by the essence of Manas. 2. Healing requires perfect benevolence, untainted even by latent selfishness. 3. The unreformed Western mind cannot grasp the essence of Buddhistic exegesis. The twin faces of Avalokiteshvara. The blind and guilty Rhys Davids leads the blind and innocent Lillie into the ditch. 4. God Geometrises. 5. Only the unshackled Spirit shall see the things of the Spirit without a veil.

Book Description
Civilization is an inheritance, a patrimony that passes from race to race along the ascending and descending paths of cycles. In its dark ages, Europe rejected the testimony of Antiquity, calling such sages as Herodotus and other learned Greeks the Fathers of Lies. Lemuria and the Atlantic Continent with their high civilizations, were submerged and drowned. The two catastrophes were separated by just , years. Our present Fifth Race began in Asia a million years ago. Greek, Roman, and even Egyptian civilizations are nothing compared to the civilizations that began with the Third Race. Greeks and Romans were small sub-races, and Egyptians part and parcel of our own “Caucasian” stock. Look at the latter, and at India: having reached their highest civilization and learning, both went down. Today’s India, one of the first and most powerful off-shoots of the mother Race, is still struggling to resume her place in history. A series of far greater civilizations than our own existed before (as well as after the Glacial Period) at various points of the globe, reached the apex of glory, and died. The Chaldees were at the apex of their Occult fame well before the so-called “Bronze Age.” The highest people now on earth, in terms of spirituality, belong to the first sub-race of the Fifth Root-race — the Aryan Asiatics. The highest, in terms of physical intellectuality, are those of the last sub-race of the Fifth, the “White Conquerors.” Black magic, bestiality, selfishness, and self-adoration spelled the demise of Atlantis and the rise of evil. The British Islands will be the first to be destroyed by submarine volcanos and water; France and other lands will follow suit. When they reappear, very few seas and great waters will be found then on our globe. The approach of every new obscuration is always signalled by cataclysms, earthquakes, and fire. Though perfected in materiality, the Atlanteans degenerated in spirituality. Atlantis and its proud Fourth Race inhabitants sunk , years ago, coinciding with the elevation of the Alps. When our present race reaches its zenith of intellectuality, and its peak of materialistic “civilization,” unable to go any higher towards absolute evil, its progress will be arrested by one of such cataclysmic changes; and it’s sub-races will go down their respective cycles, after a short period of glory and learning. See the remnants of the Atlanteans, the old Greeks and Romans, how great, how short, and how evanescent were their days of fame and glory! Every race had its adepts, who are allowed to give out as much of their knowledge as the men of that race deserve. The adepts of the last race will be far higher than any of the preceding races, for among them will abide the future Planetary Spirit, whose duty will be to instruct or “refresh the memory” of the first race of the Fifth Round men after this planet’s future obscuration.
