Klappentext

Manly P. Hall wrote and self-published this astonishing, encyclopaedic volume of spiritual, esoteric and religious Knowledge at the tender age of twenty-five, astounding all his contemporaries with a scholarship and breadth of understanding well beyond his years.

No matter what aspect of mystical or religious knowledge excites the reader, it can be found in this book's forty-five detailed, yet easily accessible, chapters - with topics ranging from Atlantis, Alchemy and Ancient Mysteries, through Rosicrucian, Masonic and Hermetic Philosophies, to Astrology, Qabalah, Ceremonial Magic, Tarot, and Sorcery. Nor are the Esoteric aspects of Christian, Islamic, Indian and Mayan religions neglected, with a chapter included on each.

The Secret Teachings of All Ages acts as a unique authoritative gateway to exploring the myriad aspects of esoteric knowledge. As an aid to navigating this hugely complex subject, the Parchment Books edition includes a unique index of the 344 book-titles cited in the text, making finding or cross referencing a much easier task.

A must-read for anyone interested in exploring the many aspects of a reality that lies just beyond the boundary of our 'normal' hear-feel-touch-see existence.
