Boston: Theosophical Book Company, c.1889. Early American Reprint Edition. 12mo, 68, [9] pages, publisher's original gilt-lettered yellow cloth covered boards. Light on the Path is a classic work of Theosophy, occult philosophy, esoteric spirituality, and mystical instruction, attributed to Mabel Collins and long associated with the teachings of the Theosophical movement. Written in the form of brief aphorisms or spiritual rules, the book presents guidance for the aspirant or disciple seeking inner illumination, self-mastery, detachment from ego, purification of desire, and entrance onto the occult “path” of wisdom. Its teachings touch on karma, spiritual discipline, Eastern philosophy, mysticism, initiation, meditation, and the hidden life of the soul, making it one of the most widely read short manuals of 19th-century esoteric and Theosophical literature. This Boston Theosophical Book Company edition includes notes and comments by the author, expanding the meaning of the text and placing it within the broader world of Theosophy, occultism, metaphysics, and spiritual development.
