There was a rivalry among these three storytellers, for they came from different tribes, and the legends of their people were not the same. Tecla was from Baja, or Lower, California, where Juanita and Antonio's mother had once lived. Old Klayukat's tribal home was to the f…

I HAVE seen the God Pan and it was in this manner: I heard a bewildering and pervasive music moving from precision to precision within itself. Then I heard a different music, hollow and laughing. Then I looked up and saw two eyes like the eyes of a wood-creature peering at me over a brown tube of wood. Then someone said: Yes, once I was playing a f…

I want to put before you, if I can in these three lectures, a certain view of the world, and of the way in which that world is guided and directed. As this meeting is a public meeting, there is one statement I think that I ought to make, which it would not be necessary to make, if it were composed of members of the Theosophical Society. It is impor…

We are face to face with this great world, and our relations to it are manifold. One of these is the necessity we have to live, to till the soil, to gather food, to clothe ourselves, to get materials from nature. We are always making things that will satisfy our needs, and we come in touch with nature in our efforts to meet these needs. Thus, we ar…

Who reads philosophy books? Not many. Maybe that's why George Santayana hid the medicine in sweeter wrappers. His The Last Puritan is an example. This week's episode is a selection from another venerable literary form, the dialog. It reminds me of the show from decades ago where a group of famous people from history were in a Sunday morning talk sh…

The old man is a…

Among the numerous sciences pursued by the well-disciplined army of earnest students of the present century, none has had less honors or more scoffing than the oldest of them—the science of sciences, the venerable mother-parent of all our modern pigmies. Anxious in their petty vanity to throw the veil of oblivion over their undoubted origin, the se…

New Thought is largely a restatement of old thought, vitalized with new life and meaning from the discoveries of modern psychology and the latest deductions of science. The reader must bear in mind, however, that the Old Thought was suppressed in the Western Hemisphere for nearly two thousand years; for the first time it is sending its illuminating…

This law, as illustrated by many live experiences, is to me, by no means an untried theory. Rather, I have, each and every time, found it so practical and reliable in solving the many difficult problems coming to me for solution that it is with the utmost confidence and gladness that I pass it on to others likewise desirous of finding a safe and su…

To feel this spirit as a living reality within, to understand these simple laws and adapt life to wise obedience to them - this it is to possess the greatest peace,…

The history of Taoist philosophy may be conveniently divided into three stages: the primitive stage, the stage of development, and the stage of degeneration. The first of these stages is only known to us through the medium of a single semi-historical figure, the philosopher Lao Tzu, whose birth is traditionally assigned to the year 604 BC. Some wou…

A supreme power and wisdom govern the universe. The supreme mind is measureless and pervades endless space.

The supreme mind is every atom of the mountain, t…

This little book appeals, perhaps, to the Eastern rather than to the Western type of mind, but so many souls trained in the East are now being reincarnated in the West that it may find friendly [listeners] away from the land of its birth. Addressed to a purely Hindu audience, the lectures contain many common Sanskrit words, familiar to every Hindu,…

"Youth" was not my first contribution to Maga. It was the second. But that story marks the first appearance in the world of the man Marlow, with whom my relations have grown very intimate in the course of years. The origins of that gentleman (nobody as far as I know had ever hinted that he was anything but that) - his origins have been the subject …

I have spent a goodly part of my life in study and research. During the last 30 years, I have read every single piece of literature on the subject of spiritualism that I could.

The Essential Mysticism on Audible, Kindle and Print THERE are two reasons why one cannot see to the bottom of a well: it may be very deep, or it may be muddy. Most people, consoling themselves for a spiritual myopia, prefer to think that super-sensuous experiences are abnormal and unworthy the consideration of a healthy mind. Thus they dispose ver…

THE word. Akasha in the language of the Hindus is expressive of a meaning that explains its object. Akasha means accommodation ; not necessarily what man calls the sky, although the sky is an accommodation. On the model of the Akasha the whole creation has been based. The organs of the senses—the ears, the eyes, the nostrils, the mouth—all are diff…
