Return of the Magi

"From the earliest times a message has passed from the East to the West." This vivid and poetic work links teachers from he Western Mystery Tradition to a common Eastern source. Great individuals like Apollonius of Tyana, Christian Rosenkreutz, Hugues des Payans, Nicolas Flamel, Saint-Germain the Immortal, and Madam Blavatsky are seen as "heroic messengers" drawing from the same "bountiful river." At times they have profoundly influenced the course of history, often passing from land to land leaving behind them followers who have preserved the secrets of their masters. Thus the teachings of the Neo-Pythagoreans, Cathars, Rosicrucians, Templars, alchemists and theosophists, all owe their existence to "the eternal truth of Brahma, which is as old as the appearance of man on earth."
