Isis Unveiled: A Master-Key to the Mysteries of Ancient and Modern Science and Theology
About This Book
Blavatsky's first major work, published in 1877, which caused an immediate sensation. In two massive volumes, she argues that modern materialist science and orthodox Christianity have both departed from an ancient esoteric wisdom that alone explains the true nature of consciousness, nature, and the spiritual world. She marshals an extraordinary range of ancient sources — Egyptian, Indian, Chaldean, Gnostic — to build her case.
What You'll Learn
Modern science and orthodox religion are both incomplete — they deal with surfaces while the ancient Mystery traditions dealt with the underlying laws of consciousness and spirit. Magic — properly understood — is the science of the forces of nature at levels too subtle for materialist measurement. The unity of humanity's ancient religious wisdom points to a single primordial revelation.
