by R. Swinburne Clymer (Author)

The Initiates by R. Swinburne Clymer is a book that explores the esoteric teachings of the ancient mystery schools. The author draws upon his own experiences as a student of these teachings to provide a comprehensive overview of the philosophy and practices of the initiates. The book covers a range of topics including the nature of the soul, the purpose of life, and the path to spiritual enlightenment. It also includes practical exercises and techniques for those seeking to deepen their understanding of these teachings. The Initiates is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the esoteric traditions of the world and the quest for spiritual knowledge and growth.The Initiates is to be a magazine of interpretation. To be more explicit: its aim is to be an organ of the Christic Interpretation - interpretation of truth in the light of the Christ and the light of the Christic teachings. It is the mouthpiece of the Church of Illumination and the Temple of the Illuminati. Its object is to give to the many the laws of Higher Interpretation; laws that were known to the few, even centuries before the time of Jesus, but that could not be taught generally because the multitudes believed mere faith to be sufficient for salvation, and, in consequence of this belief, were not anxious to understand and to obey the laws of right living.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
