| Title: Echoes of the Orient |
| Sub-title: Volume 3 - The Writings of William Quan Judge |
| By (author): William Quan Judge |
| ISBN10-13: 1557001979 : 9781557001979 |
| This volume is divided into five sections, the first a series of articles introducing theosophical concepts which Judge wrote for "Kate Field's Washington" under the title "Echoes from the Orient". Sections 2-4 contain tracts and pamphlets issued by Judge including his highly-esteemed "Epitome of Theosophy" as well as articles in newspapers and journals other than those in the first two volumes, and miscellanea (extracts, undated articles, etc.). The fifth and largest section, comprising nearly half the volume, is devoted to "Suggestions and Aids" issued to students of the Eastern School of Theosophy, founded by H P B with Judge's assistance in 1888. These papers deal with matters more directly pertinent to theosophists, as well as with the core purposes of the Theosophical Society and its founders, the Mahatmas. Whatever the subject, Judge's writing is invariably down to earth, cutting right through rigid thinking and the nonsense of pseudo-occultism. It is refreshing to read clear, simply-worded sentences free of the misty sweetness and light or clever but vague language that characterises much new-age literature today. As straightforward as Judge is, his perspective is clearly rooted in a larger philosophic background, oriented towards universal brotherhood, innate human dignity, and the inestimable worth of altruistic motive and service. Never condescending, but always the Esotericist, a student/teacher with whom we can easily relate, Judge transmits the perennial wisdom in a way that encourages us to broaden our views and thus to see in everyone and everything vibrant expressions of the divine force permeating the universe. |

| Title: Echoes of the Orient |
| Sub-title: Volume 2 - The Writings of William Quan Judge |
| By (author): William Quan Judge |
| ISBN10-13: 1557001960 : 9781557001962 |
| In this second volume readers will find a wealth of theosophical teachings, history, and guidance. Nearly half the book comprises articles from several magazines, as well as Judge's presentations at the 1893 World's Parliament of Religions in Chicago, where he chaired the Theosophical Congress. The remaining sections include Hidden Hints in The Secret Doctrine; Questions from The Vahan, The Theosophical Forum, and The Path; Abridgement of Discussions; and Faces of Friends. What is striking about Judge's writing is his exceptional ability to condense a powerful line of thinking into simple language. If we may characterise the contents of Volume I as coming from the plane of "pure buddhi" or intuition as H P Blavatsky once remarked of Judge's Path magazine much of the material in this second volume, while covering a broad philosophic territory, brings the reader more closely in touch with the secular and practical side of Theosophy. Here we learn more about how people responded to the reintroduction and challenge of theosophic wisdom in modern times. The effects were both elevating and unsettling, and one of Judge's primary efforts was to try to help as many as possible establish surer footing on this newly rising continent of spiritual-scientific thought. One result of H P Blavatsky's ground-breaking works was a flood of questions sent to Judge on every conceivable topic: What happens to us after death? Can this be known? Do we have a soul? Can it be lost? What happens to suicides? Is it possible to receive in dreams answers to questions about right conduct? Should psychic powers be developed? Are celibacy and vegetarianism necessary to lead a spiritual life? What evidence is there for the existence of advanced humans or mahatmas? Why don't they make themselves better known? How does one enter the spiritual path and live the life in a practical way? How can one serve mankind? Judge's responses to these and scores of other questions and problems have timely relevance, providing helpful insight into similar issues arising in today's spiritual ferment. |

| Title: Echoes of the Orient |
| Sub-title: Volume 1 - The Writings of William Quan Judge |
| By (author): William Quan Judge |
| ISBN10-13: 1557001952 : 9781557001955 |
| Echoes are heard in every age of a timeless path that leads to divine wisdom and to knowledge of our purpose in the universal design. Today's resurgent awareness of our physical and spiritual interdependence affirms those pioneering keynotes set forth in the writings of H P Blavatsky. Her task was to re-present the broad panorama of the "anciently universal Wisdom-Religion" to show its underlying expression in the world's myths, legends, and spiritual traditions, and to show its scientific basis with the overarching goal of furthering the cause of universal brotherhood. Some people, however, have found her books difficult and ask for something simpler. The writings of William Q Judge, one of the Theosophical Society's co-founders and a close personal colleague of HPB, help fill this need. His Ocean of Theosophy and Letters That Have Helped Me remain classics in the literature, describing in clear language the fundamental ideas of the wisdom-tradition and its path of spiritual quest. Yet the greater part of Judge's literary output was for decades accessible only to those fortunate enough to have copies of the magazine he started and edited. In character with the themes it dealt with, he named it The Path. This first volume of Echoes of the Orient comprises about 170 articles from The Path magazine, chronologically arranged and supplemented by his popular "Occult Tales". Also included are a well-documented 50-page biography, numerous illustrations, photographs, and facsimiles, as well as a bibliography and index. Volumes II and III, comprising Judge's "Hidden Hints in the Secret Doctrine" lectures at the World's Parliament of Religions, articles and replies to questions in other magazines, tracts, pamphlets, and his "Suggestions and Aids" to fellow travellers on the Path, will follow in due course. |

| Title: Esoteric Tradition |
| Edition Statement: 3rd Revised Edition |
| By (author): G Purucker |
| ISBN10-13: 1557002177 : 9781557002174 |
| H P Blavatsky pointed to the fundamental concepts of The Secret Doctrine as comprising the principles of an ancient wisdom existing long before the dawn of history. Underlying and seeding the world's spiritual traditions, it is this doctrine and wisdom-teaching which G de Purucker unfolds in "The Esoteric Tradition". This new edition offers a broad, yet detailed introduction to theosophy, synthesising philosophy, science, and religion in a way that enables the reader to see universes, worlds, humanity, and all nature as different aspects of one evolving cosmic pattern. And throughout the tapestry runs the thread of altruism and service as the way towards bettering all life. Topics include: what theosophy is and is not; the origin and structure of the universe; karma and reincarnation; cycles of human evolution; processes of death and rebirth; good and evil; divinity and the Hierararchy of Compassion; avatars, buddhas, and christs; mediums vs. mediators; the esoteric schools and the great teachers of mankind -- these and much more contribute to the panorama of "The Esoteric Tradition". |
