I first found this composite of monthly journals at an old Inn in New England. I thought it might help me fall asleep! Au Contraire! I've since bought every back issue that Kessinger Publishing has made available. I realized that I still have A LOT to learn about the occult and the mystery schools. The Theosophist has introduced to so many different areas of study that I am constantly amazed at what a strange and wonderful universe is out there beyond our normal sight. Enjoy - you will want to buy them all.
