Synopsis

Thought-provoking and inspiriting, The Gods Await applies theosophic principles to human life and thought, emphasizing remedies for man's inhumanity to man. It discusses freedom of ideas, world peace, and reformation of the criminal justice system setting forth the problems with their root-causes and possible solutions. Speaking to the intuition as well as the intellect, the author encourages us to recognize our duality and look to the spiritual center within, then act fearlessly for there is always another chance, no matter what our apparent failures. Here is a plea for social action and individual renewal based on self-knowledge, compassion, and the innate divinity of mankind.

About this title

About the Author:

Katherine Tingley was born July 6, 1847, in Newbury, Massachusetts. Reared in an atmosphere of culture, she felt a profound sympathy for the victims of poverty, misery, and war, and worked all her life to alleviate suffering. In 1893 she met William Q. Judge who introduced her to theosophy. Soon she knew that here was a philosophy which, if pract­iced, could lighten the burdens of humanity. Mrs. Tingley and Judge became co-workers, and upon his death in March 1896 she succeeded him as head of the Theosophical Society. In 1900 she moved its international headquarters to Point Loma, California, where she continued her humanitarian efforts and founded the Raja-Yoga School, Academy, and College, and Theosophical University. She lectured extensively in the US and abroad until her death at Visingsö, Sweden on July 11, 1929.
