The twelve lessons forming this volume were originally issued in the shape of monthly lessons, known as ‘The Advanced Course in Yogi Philosophy and Oriental Occultism’ during a period of twelve months beginning with October 1904, and ending September 1905.
We have been told, so often, that we must take certain things ‘on faith, ‘ and that it was ‘no use bothering our minds concerning them, ‘ but this is only a partial statement of truth, for the Intellect does give us a reliable report concerning the real nature of things…’ New Thought proponents at the turn of the twentieth century sought to use mysticism to unleash the forces of the universe in themselves. One of the most influential thinkers of this early ‘New Age’ philosophy promises here, in this 1904 book, to show the reader ‘to see with the clear vision of the Spirit’ and how to ‘achieve the peace of the awakened and conscious soul.’ As the yogi reminds us, ‘No occult teaching is ever wasted-all bears fruit in its own good time.’ With this significant document of the New Thought movement back in print, now may be the time.
