About the author

Mabel Collins was born in St Peter Port, Guernsey. She was a writer of popular occult novels, a fashion writer and an anti-vivisection campaigner. According to Vittoria Cremers, as related by Aleister Crowley, Collins was at one time being romantically pursued by both Cremers and alleged occultist Robert D'Onston Stephenson. Cremers claimed that during this time she found five bload-soaked ties in a trunk under Stephenson's bed, corresponding to the five murders committed in Whitechapel by Jack the Ripper. Stephenson is no longer a candidate as being Jack the Ripper due to the efforts of competent, modern researchers. However, Stephenson was a rival with Cremers for Collins' affections, and this account cannot be independently confirmed

These precepts require balance, temperance, and acceptance. Having a teacher is also invaluable. This is a beautifully simple and powerful text.

[martin · Rating 5 out of 5]

stunningly beautiful and profound; simple and unpretentious.
the text itself is no more than 10 pages, and would be a wonderful way to begin and/or end a day

Porque en ti está la Luz del mundo, la única luz que en el sendero puede difundirse. Si eres incapaz de percibirla dentro de ti, es inútil que la busques en otra parte. Está fuera de tu alcance, porque cuando a ella llegues ya no te encuentras a ti mismo. Es inasequible, porque siempre retrocede. Entrarás en el seno de la Luz, pero no tocarás nunca la llama...

[Bobby Daugherty · Rating 4 out of 5]

Read this mainly as it is short and I had became aware of the author's pedigree and associations. It is a good introduction as well as instruction for people who are becoming aware of the esoteric and accept the limitations of the current state of their own knowledge.

I will read this great book again and again

Masterpiece

[Japan Vora · Rating 4 out of 5]

This book is not as a simple as it looks like. I guess before reading this book one needs to read tremendously. Only then the these words will make sense.

Inutile, senza contenuti

“Before the soul can stand, its feet must be washed in the blood of the heart.”

this is like a hug in book form.

[Saúl Girón · Rating 3 out of 5]

La puntuación es una combinación de una calificación muy mala para la primera parte y una demasiado buena para la segunda (por las puertas de oro).
La primera, como eventualmente lo advierte del mismo libro, está orientada a un grupo muy reducido de personas y, obviamente, yo no estoy entre ellas. Me resultó una colección de ideas, pensamientos o reglas complicadas y hasta contradictorias.
La segunda parte, sin embargo, se trata de una serie de reflexiones hermosas y profundas que te invitan y ayudan a crecer.
Sin duda alguna, tanta sabiduría tuvo que haber sido un regalo del Universo para esta mujer, quien plasmó verdades atemporales, hace más de 100 años.

[Neeramitra Reddy · Rating 5 out of 5]

This must be The Bhagwad Gita's western counterpart - in all honesty, I actually like and resonate much deeper with this than The Bhagwad Gita itself.

So profound are the words and lessons of this book that the divine soul Osho wrote an entire 500+ page book "The Voice Of Silence" as a commentary.

This is the kind of book you reread every few years - and it delivers completely new insights every time

[David Griffiths · Rating 4 out of 5]

This is a terrific read if you are thirsty for some knowledge or truth or wisdom or something.
I didn't know what to call the thing I was looking for.
One thing was certain tho',this read satisfied the thirst a bit.

Read for reasearch for Donna Hooks Fletcher: Life and Writings.

Collins repurposes tenants of Buddhism and Hinduism for Theosophic purposes. Interesting historically.

[Achint Kumar · Rating 5 out of 5]

A small yet powerful book....Must read for all.

[Sharon Kuromiya · Rating 5 out of 5]

Possibly the most profound book I've ever read. And reread, and reread....

[Reginald Randall]

a classic must read
