Abridgement of the Secret Doctrine by Helene Petrovna Blavatsky Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description The creation of the universe and the nature of humanity as taught in the Ancient Wisdom. Publisher Description The Secret Doctrine is a comprehensive survey of the origin of the cosmos and the prehistory of humanity. Written more than 100 years ago, it anticipates the discoveries of modern cosmology and sees further back into prehistory than modern evolutionary biology. A brilliant synthesis of religion, philosophy, and science, presented within the frameword of an Ancient Wisdom inherited from the dawn of life, it is the basis for all modern esotericism. This abridgement presents the central insights of the original text in an accessible form, simplified by those passages that are most interesting and relevant for the contemporary reader. Author Biography Helena Petrovna Blavatsky was born on August 12, 1831, at Dnepropetrovsk (Ekaterinoslav), Ukraine, daughter of Colonel Peter Alexeyevich von Hahn and novelist Helena Andreyevna (nee de Fadeyev). In 1849 she married N. V. Blavatsky, and shortly thereafter began more than 20 years of extensive travel, which brought her into contact with mystic traditions the world over. She was the principal founder of the Theosophical Society in New York City in 1875, and devoted her extraordinary literary talents to its humanitarian and educational purposes until her death in London, England, on May 8, 1891. Along with writing her several books, H. P. Blavatsky kept up a voluminous correspondence and also contributed a steady stream of essays and articles to periodicals in English, French, and Russian.
