Author: LEADBEATER, C. W.
Title: A Textbook of Theosophy
Description: Los Angeles, CA: Theosophical Publishing House, 1918. 3rd Edition. Paperback. This is a small format book with cardstock covers and a glued spine. The book is in Very Good- condition and was issued without a dust jacket. The spine ends and corners of the book covers have some light bumping, rubbing and wear. There is a crease to the top front corner of the book cover. The text pages are generally clean and bright, though there are several pages with light highlighting in pen. The title page, and several of the early text pages have a thin strip of tidemarking / watermarking to the top and foredges. "Leadbeater wrote over 60 books and pamphlets during the period from 1895 to his death in 1934, many of which continued to be published until 1955. Two noteworthy titles, Astral Plane and the Devachanic Plane (or The Heaven World) both of which contained writings on the realms the soul passes through after death. "For the first time among occultists, a detailed investigation had been made of the Astral Plane as a whole, in a manner similar to that in which a botanist in an Amazonian jungle would set to work in order to classify its trees, plants and shrubs, and so write a botanical history of the jungle. For this reason the little book, The Astral Plane, was definitely a landmark, and the Master as Keeper of the Records desired to place its manuscript in the great Museum." Highlights of his writing career included addressing topics such as: the existence of a loving God, The Masters of Wisdom, what happens after death, immortality of the human soul, reincarnation, Karma or the Law of Consequence, development of clairvoyant abilities, the nature of thought forms, dreams, vegetarianism, Esoteric Christianity.". Very Good- .
