Most spiritual impulses today can be traced back to the nineteenth-century explosion of esotericism. In The Transcendental Universe, one of the most enigmatic and thought-provoking works of the period, a mysterious and unknown figure--C.G. Harrison--examines theosophy from an esoteric Christian perspective. He identifies true gnosis and, with great courage, makes public much esoteric knowledge that had remained hidden within occult orders.
Christopher Bamford is Editor in Chief Emeritus for SteinerBooks (Anthroposophic Press) and its imprints. A Fellow of the Lindisfarne Association, he has lectured, taught, and written widely on Western spiritual and esoteric traditions. He is the author of The Voice of the Eagle: The Heart of Celtic Christianity (1990) and An Endless Trace: The Passionate Pursuit of Wisdom in the West (2003). He has also translated and edited numerous books, including Celtic Christianity: Ecology and Holiness (1982); Homage to Pythagoras: Rediscovering Sacred Science; and The Noble Traveller: The Life and Writings of O. V. de L. Milosz (all published by Lindisfarne Books). HarperSanFrancisco included an essay by Mr. Bamford in its anthology Best Spiritual Writing 2000.
"...a most remarkable and fascinating piece of work. I'm delighted to see it being reprinted." --Colin Wilson "The re-issuing of Harrison's [work] is a felicitous and significant event. Written during the highest flowering of the Occult Revival of the nineteenth century, this work contains challenging ideas which all persons with an interest in the inner traditions of East and West will welcome. Admirers of Blavatsky, Papus, or Steiner, as well as those attracted to the gnosis of C. G. Jung or of the Nag Hammadi scriptures cannot afford to pass by this unique and interesting work." --Stephan A. Hoeller "Christopher Bamford has unearthed a. treasure of esoteric history: Whether one agrees with Harrison or not, one marvels at his inside knowledge of occult movements, his great intelligence and balance, and his vision of a 'Christian Polytheism' for the coming epoch. The masterly introduction and notes show that this solitary adept has a claim on us all, perhaps even more now than in 1893." --Joscelyn Godwin
