The Seven Principles Of Man By Annie Besant
The Seven Principles Of Man By Annie Besant
Publishing: 1892 by the Theosophical Publishing Society, First Edition
“Few words are needed in sending this little book out into the world. It is the first of a series of Manuals designed to meet the public demand for a simple exposition of Theosophical teachings…Theosophy is not only for the learned; it is for all. It may be that among those who in these little books catch their first glimpse of its teachings, there may be a few who will be led by them to penetrate more deeply into its philosophy, its science, and its religion, facing its abstruser problems with the student’s zeal and the neophyte’s ardour.” - FROM THE PREFACE; ULTRA RARE
Condition: Very Good / former library book with small tape on spine (refer to pictures) / other than that book in great shape for age
“Perhaps a slightly more definite conception of Atma-Buddhi may be obtained by the student, if he considers its work in Evolution as the Monad. Now Atma-Buddhi is identical with the Universal Oversoul, “itself an aspect of the Unknown Root,” the One Existence. When manifestation begins the Monad is “thrown downwards into matter,” to propel towards and force evolution; it is the mainspring, so to speak, of all evolution, the impelling force at the root of all things. All the principles we have been studying are mere “variously differentiated aspects” of Atma, the One Reality manifesting in our universe; it is in every atom, “the root of every atom individually and every form collectively,” and all the principles are fundamentally Atma on different planes.” Annie Besant The Seven Principles Of Man
