Description
Perspectives on Initiation presents initiation as essentially the
transmission, by the appropriate rites of a given tradition, of a
'spiritual influence' which represents the 'beginning' (initium) of the
spiritual journey. It is unique in giving a comprehensive account both
of the conditions of initiation and of the characteristics of
organizations qualified to transmit it.
While most of its 48 chapters deal with specific aspects of initiation, others cover an astonishing range of related subjects, among them:
Magic and Mysticism
Ceremonial Magic
Psychic 'Powers'
The Symbolism of the Theater
The Gift of Tongues
Greater and Lesser Mysteries
Rose-Cross and Rosicrucians
Some Reflections on Hermeticism
The Birth of the Avatara
