The spiritual revolution of the twentieth century-the "New Age"-is unimaginable without the spiritualist movement and the formidable personality of Helena Petrovna Blavatsky, the creator of the Theosophical Society. Without these two, the work of Rudolf Steiner, G.I. Gurdjieff, Hazrat Inayat Khan, Sri Aurobindo, and C.G. Jung, could not have been what it was.

In this fascinating collection on the Theosophical movement, Rudolf Steiner, one of its leading participants, tells his own story in his own words about the movement's origins in spiritualism and somnambulism. as well as his own version of the relationship between Theosophy and Anthroposophy.

Steiner also relates Theosophy to its historical ground in Western esotericism, revealing the events from the seventeenth century that led to the emergence of Freemasonry and other secret societies, the hidden history of the creation of Theosophy itself in the nineteenth century, and the conflicts that are still reverberating between Anglo-Saxon and Germanic occult streams today.
