ECHOES OF THE ORIENT  Volume III  The Writings Of W.Q. Judge
Echoes of the Orient - Vol. III - Cover
Compiled by Dara Eklund
Since the founding of the Theosophical Society of 1875 by H.P. Blavatsky, Henry S. Olcott, William Q. Judge, and others, its basic ideas have had enormous effect upon world-thought. Judge's own contribution to this outpouring has been unique, as the compiler of the three volumes of Echoes states. "William Q. Judge was tireless in seeking new methods to reach the common man with practical Theosophy. Besides this, he knew how to tap the ethical roots of an expanding new nation. Thus the movement grew and thrived under his direction in America." More than a hundred pages in this volume are from esoteric instructions, including papers on advanced technical theosophical studies, answers to students and helpful commentary.

II. THE ESOTERIC OR ORIENTAL SCHOOL
The Esoteric Or Oriental School - Cover
G. de Purucker
This work covers the true meaning of the initiatory cycle, so often glamorized and misunderstood. Both the practical and ethical basis are laid, as well as the requisites for right consciousness in approaching the inner mysteries. The premise of the book is that "Intuition per se is spiritual wisdom and garnered knowledge, gathered into the storehouse of the spirit-soul and gained in past lives. Meditation is a positive attitude of mind. It is rather a state of consciousness than a system or a time period of intensive brain-mind thinking. Meditation implies quiet, peace; and above everything else, it means undisturbed reflection." Studied here are the seven degrees of initiation, the nature of the Mahatmas' work, the relationship of teacher and disciple, meditation and spiritual illumination versus psychic illusion and more. Genuine substance for the traveler of the inner path.

THE INNER GROUP TEACHINGS OF H.P. BLAVATSKY
The Inner Group Teachings of H.P. Blavatsky - Cover
Compiled and Annotated by Henk J. Spierenburg with an historical introduction by Daniel H. Caldwell and Henk J. Spierenburg
During the last months of Helena Blavatsky's life, a small group of personal students gathered to form an "Inner Group" which met with her to ask questions and receive teaching on various aspects of Theosophy, practical and metaphysical alike. These meetings covered a wide range of subjects from states of consciousness, correspondences of planets, color, and sound to metaphysical correspondences of Kosmic principles and future evolution of humanity. The meetings continued until her death in may, 1891. Given today's understanding of the dynamics of the "unconscious" from Jungian thought, as well as the unified matter/energy theories of modern physics, it can be seen the Blavatsky's comments both seeded and anticipated this later inner opening in the Western psyche. Her profound insight expanded this new movement of consciousness into the 21st century and will still continue to provide ideas of archetypal depth. 
  "If you could remember your dreams in deep sleep, you would be able to remember all you past incarnations. This is the 'memory of the Heart': and the capacity to impress it on the 'opening of the third Eye'. In deep sleep, the Third Eye opens but it does not remain open. Still, some impressions from the Spiritual Consciousness do reach the Brain more or less ... and there are some of these which are received through the Brain, which do not belong to our previous personal experience. In the case of the Adept, the Brain is trained to retain these impressions." - from the book.
