Allow Iamblichus to introduce you to the company of the ancient vegetarian followers of Pythagoras; let yourself become imbued with the dialectical beauty and profound wisdom of Plutarch and Plato; follow Porphyry's extensive mystical disquisitions on the matter; hear the allegedly clairvoyant testimonies by Charles W. Leadbeater and Annie Besant on what the indiscriminate sacrifice of animals for food entails, and become acquainted with the theosophical elucidations of Helena P. Blavatsky on whether animals are endowed with souls. All this benefiting from the insightful annotations of the modern Neo-Platonic philosopher Thomas Taylor and an additional essay, introduction and further annotations by Sonchis Triacorda. The present volume contains: "On the Eating of Flesh I & II" by Plutarch. "Vegetarianism in the Light of Theosophy" by Annie Besant "Vegetarianism and Occultism" by Charles W. Leadbeater "The Influence of Alcohol" by Annie Besant "Have Animals Souls? (I-III)" by Helena P.

This volume contains three classic life-after-death books: The Life After Death; The Astral Plane; and The Devachanic Plane, or The Heaven World. Combined they provide a detailed and helpful picture of the realms the soul passes through after death. The author, clairvoyant Charles Webster Leadbeater (1854-1934), was a prominent member of the Theosophical Society, and a contemporary of founder Helena Petrovna Blavatsky and her successor Annie Besant. The Astral Plane was considered so important in the history of the Theosophical Society that the Masters of Wisdom requested the manuscript to be sent to the museum of history in the Himalayas, with the following reasoning: "For the first time among occultists, a detailed investigation had been made of the astral plane as a whole, in a manner similar to that in which a botanist in an Amazonian jungle would set to work in order to classify its trees, plants and shrubs, and so write a botanical history of the jungle. For this reason the little book, The Astral Plane, was definitely a landmark, and the Master as Keeper of the Records desired to place its manuscript in the great Museum." During his lifetime Charles Leadbeater wrote 69 books and pamphlets based on his clairvoyant investigations of life, covering topics such as the existence of a loving God, the Masters of Wisdom, what happens after death, immortality of the human soul, reincarnation, karma or the Law of Consequence, development of clairvoyant abilities, the nature of thought forms, dreams, vegetarianism, and Esoteric Christianity. He remains well-known and influential in New Age circles to this day.

Occult Chemistry-Clairvoyant Observations on the Chemical Elements is a classic occult science text by Annie Besant. It remains to be seen--not how far, but rather how soon the scientific world at large will accept the conclusions of this volume of Occult Chemistry as a definite contribution to science, blending the science of the laboratory with that variety that has hitherto been called occult. The first edition was published in 1908, the second edition in 1919, and a third in 1951. Since the first edition was published in 1908, the book is in the public domain, and available in whole or in excerpts, on many sites on the internet. Occult Chemistry states that the structure of chemical elements can be assessed through clairvoyant observation with the microscopic vision of the third eye. Observations were carried out between 1895 and 1933. "The book consists both of coordinated and illustrated descriptions of presumed etheric counterparts of the atoms of the then known chemical elements, and of other expositions of occult physics.

La mayor parte de las religiones hablan al hombre de ngeles custodios que est n cerca de l en tiempos de aflicci n y de trastorno. Tanto en Oriente como en Occidente se han dejado testimonios, desde tiempos remotos, acerca de estos seres y se les ha llamado de muy diversas maneras. Hay adem s otro reino en la naturaleza que es muy poco conocido: el de los esp ritus naturales o el de las hadas. Aqu tambi n la tradici n popular ha conservado la huella de la existencia de una serie de seres que la ciencia no conoce. Este volumen re ne tres obras fundamentales de Charles W. Leadbeater: Los ngeles custodios, Protectores invisibles y Los esp ritus de la naturaleza. En ellas encontramos que las creencias, consejos y tradiciones populares respecto de los ngeles, duendes, gnomos, hadas y esp ritus del aire, del agua, de los bosques, monta as y cavernas no son meras supersticiones sin significado, sino hechos naturales.
