Hot off the press! New editions of G. De Purucker’s books available
We just published new editions of two of Gottfried de Purucker’s timeless works:
Esoteric Teachings Volume 1 of 12 - The Esoteric Path
Its Nature and Its Tests
FROM THE INTRODUCTION:
It is with great pleasure on the one hand, but with a deep sense of responsibility on the other, that we publish in a new edition this series of twelve Esoteric Instructions by Gottfried de Purucker. ...
G. de Purucker distinguishes himself by the clarity with which he explains theosophical teachings to his students and the accuracy with which he preserves their purity.
These teachings were given at Point Loma, California in the early 1930’s to the esoteric group assembled there, in his capacity as Leader of The Theosophical Society and Outer Head of the Esoteric Section of The Theosophical Society, which positions he held from 1929 until his death in 1942.
De Purucker unfolds and elaborates Blavatsky’s core presentation of Theosophy with a deep cohesiveness and the pervasive foundation: “…to teach men their essential Oneness with the Boundless All.”

Esoteric Teachings on the Four Sacred Seasons
In the Wisdom Traditions, the solstices and equinoxes, the four seasonal points, are sacred times that link us to the Universal Life. All cultures in ancient times venerated these seasonal transformations. Drawing from Egyptian, Buddhist, Taoist and Druid teachings, Gottfried de Purucker gives commentary on the inner meaning elaborating the esoteric depth of these sacred teachings.
“Born of the moon, children of the sun, offsprings of the stars, and inheritors of the cosmic spaces … we and the Boundless are in essence not twain but one.”
“The cycle of the years among the ancient peoples was always considered to be a symbol of the life of man or, indeed, of the life of the Universe. Birth, at the Winter Solstice; Adolescence, at the Spring Equinox; Adulthood, full blown strength and power, at the Summer Solstice; and then at the Autumnal Equinox, the time of the Great Passing. This cycle of the years symbolizes the training in the spiritual life.“
