Excerpt from The Secret Doctrine, Vol. 1: The Synthesis of Science, Religion, and Philosophy; Cosmogenesis
The aim of this work may be thus stated: to Show that Nature is not a fortuitous concurrence of atoms, and to assign to man his rightful place in the scheme of the Universe; to rescue from degradation the archaic truths which are the basis of all reli gions; to uncover, to some extent, the fundamental unity from which they all spring; finally, to Show that the Occult side of Nature has never been approached by the Science of modern civilization.

Excerpt from The Secret Doctrine, Vol. 1: The Synthesis of Science, Religion, and Philosophy
The author - the writer, rather - feels it necessary to apologize for the long delay which has occurred in the appearance of this work. It has been occasioned by ill-health and the magnitude of the undertaking. Even the two volumes now issued do not complete the scheme, nor do these treat exhaustively of the subjects dealt with in them. A large quantity of material has already been prepared, dealing with the history of Occultism as contained in the lives of the great Adepts of the Aryan Race, and showing the bearing of Occult Philosophy upon the conduct of life, as it is and as it ought to be. Should the present volumes meet with a favourable reception, no effort will be spared to carry out the scheme of the work in its entirety.
This scheme, it must be added, was not in contemplation when the preparation of the work was first announced. As originally announced, it was intended that The Secret Doctrine should be an amended and enlarged version of Isis Unveiled. It was, however, soon found that the explanations which could be added to those already put before the world, in the last-named and other works dealing with Esoteric Science, were such as to require a different method of treatment; and consequently the present volumes do not contain, in all, twenty pages extracted from Isis Unveiled.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the profound depths of the "Secret Doctrine," an ancient and universal wisdom tradition that has been veiled in symbolism and secrecy for millennia. Drawing upon a vast array of sources, including Sanskrit manuscripts, Egyptian hieroglyphs, and the teachings of esoteric schools, the author unveils fragments of this hidden knowledge, shedding light on the fundamental unity underlying all religions. Exploring cosmic evolution, the nature of the universe, and the origins of humanity, the book challenges conventional scientific and religious paradigms. It presents a view of existence as an interconnected web of life, where spirit and matter are two sides of the same coin. The author contends that the wisdom of antiquity holds profound insights that can illuminate our understanding of the world and our place within it. Through an examination of ancient myths, symbols, and religious texts, the book reveals the interconnectedness of spiritual traditions across cultures and time. It argues that the "Secret Doctrine" is not limited to any one religion or belief system but represents a universal heritage that has been preserved and transmitted by initiates throughout history. Ultimately, this book invites readers to embark on a journey of intellectual and spiritual exploration, offering a glimpse into the hidden dimensions of existence and the transformative power of ancient wisdom.
