Charles Webster Leadbeater was one of the most prolific and arguably the most influential member of the Theosophical Society. This book throws light on the development of the thoughts of this remarkable individual and reveals Leadbeater’s engagement throughout his life with the world of THEOSOPHY. The author's experience on the subject comes through in a clear manner. It leaves the reader asking for more while at the same time the content of this book requires a few rereading to fully appreciate it. Leadbeater remains well-known and influential in New Age circles for his many works, which profoundly impacted the development of alternative spirituality in the early twentieth century. Leadbeater claims that the "power to see what is hidden from ordinary physical sight" is an extension of common reception, and he explains how to develop this faculty which is essential for our future and higher evolution. He describes three forms of clairvoyance (the mental viewing of things): Simple Clairvoyance, Clairvoyance in space, Clairvoyance in time.
In summation, this unusual book is a must-read classic for all students of enlightenment—both novices and seasoned scholars alike.
