In questo secondo volume viene approfondita la storia delle religioni, ricostruendo come l'unico raggio della religione originale sia passato attraverso il prisma delle diverse situazioni storiche e culturali diventando varie religioni, e queste, a loro volta, si siano sfumate in sette. Particolarmente accurato il confronto tra le storie di Crishna, Buddha e Gesù che mostrano analogie tali da sciogliere ogni dubbio in quanto alla loro origine comune. Un'opera indispensabile per chiunque sia in cammino su un percorso spirituale.

Quest'opera, pubblicata nel 1877 dalla famosa filosofa e veggente Helena Blavatsky, è così corposa da essere stata divisa in due grandi parti. Associandola strettamente con le dottrine esoteriche dell'ermetismo e del neoplatonismo, Blavatsky descrisse la teosofia come la sintesi della scienza, della religione e della filosofia, affermando il proposito di far rivivere in forma nuova la grande sapienza dei misteri antichi, già intravista a suo tempo dalle religioni maggiori.

Helena P. Blavatsky was a prolific writer and scholar who spearheaded the modern Theosophic movement. Here she gives an historical examination of the history and study of alchemy, but specifically as it was related to the esotericists of the 19th century. And, as always she includes her philosophical comments on the matter. 

Ten more extraordinary tales of terror, penned by the prolific horror masters of old. From Lovecraft's take on the Yuletide and the Black Veil of Nathaniel Hawthorne, to the tragedy of Bierce's Owl Creek Bridge and Sheridan Le Fanu's authentic narrative of a Haunted House.

Blavatsky engages in a spirited debate on spiritualism, defending an article entitled "Fragments of Occult Truth" by another writer, though one she had published in her own periodical, The Theosophist. The article had come under attack by a rival magazine of the time, and Blavatsky comes to the rescue.

In addition to being a prolific writer of Theosophical and occult teachings, Madame Blavatsky also penned a few tales of short fiction; although, she often claimed the events of her tales to be true, for added effect. This one recounts the tale of a traveler abroad, while searching for her lost dog and with aid of the whirling dervishes, encounters a strange humanoid creature known as the Oracle of Damascus, which they attempt to subdue.

Madame Blavatsky was the face of the Theosophical movement, and probably its most prolific writer. In this particular piece, published in 1889, she writes somewhat philosophically about the dawning of a new age of writers and religious thinkers. She feels that she is witnessing an equalization of sorts, within society, which she refers to as the Awakening Spirit of Humanity. She urges the listener to participate, rather than just sit idly by and observe.

La Voz del Silencio puede considerarse, sin duda alguna, una de las obras cumbres de la escuela teosófica y uno de los más importantes textos de enseñanza oculta de todos los tiempos.

Among the numerous sciences pursued by the well-disciplined army of earnest students of the present century, none has had less honors or more scoffing than the oldest of them—the science of sciences, the venerable mother-parent of all our modern pigmies. Anxious in their petty vanity to throw the veil of oblivion over their undoubted origin, the self-styled positive scientists, ever on the alert, present to the courageous scholar who tries to deviate from the beaten highway traced out for him by his dogmatic predecessors, a formidable range of serious obstacles. 

This podcast series discusses Theosophy, which is often defined as the synthesis of science, religion and philosophy. Founded by Helena P. Blavatsky, who notably authored The Secret Doctrine and Isis Unveiled, Theosophy's scope is almost as astounding as the study's profound insights and wisdom. One small subject at a time, readings of Blavatsky and William Q. Judge are heard. One's own contemplation of the individual subjects presented, is bound to inform more than simply the moment.
