1950Five volume set varies in condition by book: two voulmes show light bumps to corners only, vol. II has a very bad bump to upper corners, apparently a shipping problem; vols. III, IV and V are bumped pretty well at bottom spine. Vol. V has an impact mark middle back cover. Text/interiors are clean and free of marking of any kind with notable variations in paper quality through the five vols. Books appear unread and the first book has a note from the shipper: Blackwells of Oxford, England apologising for the condition of the books. typewritten, circa 1950. Publication date is not stated and is estimated. Each book is about 200 pages. Forward reads: The Srimad Bhagavatam was composed by Vyasadeva under instructions from Narada in order to attain that ever-lasting peace which he could not derive even after the composition of the Mahabharata and the compilation of the vedas. Every page of the sacred Purana abounds with charming and enobling hymns in praise of the Almighty God and the Purana describes the divine sports (lila) of the Lord in detail, so that even a mere reading of the sacred book ensures some amount of spiritual progress to the most ordinary man. This sacred piece of literature is invaluable to the adept who discovers in it all the secret mysteries of spiritual discipline (Sadhana), and pleasing to the ordinary man who finds himself absorbed in the charming narratives about the birth and the action of Sri Krishna. Like the Bhagavat Gita, it is a wonderful book of synthesis and the narrow partisan spirit displayed by the Purana literature in general is entirely absent from it. Jnana, Bhakti and Karma are assigned their respective spheres; Karma is prescribed for the attached (Askata), Jnana, for the detached (Virakta), and Bhatti for those who are neither very much attached nor very much detached and indifferent. It preches Bhagavat-dharma, or the religion of Love that is as universal in application as catholic in its principles, that is as safe as sure, as easy as efficacious. Contents include: Description of the divine glories, Approach of Narada, Interview between Narada and Vyasa, Invocation by Kunti, Description of Parikshit's Birth, Dhritarashtra renounces the world, Query of the king Yudhishthira to Arjuna, Yudhishthira and his brothers repair to Heaven, Suppression of Kali, etc.

1929réf. 7962Madras: Ganesh & Co 1929. First edition. 24x17cm 239 1pp. Modern Indian binding of red morocco tooled in black with gray spine label lettered in gilt. Spine toned few scuffs to boards. Internally clean with some light toning to page block. Near fine. Housed in a pink silk covered slipcase. Scarce first edition of this text from British Tantra scholar Sir John Woodroffe 1865-1936 who wrote extensively under the pseudonym Arthur Avalon. Woodroffe through his writings helped stimulate and spread interest in Hindu philosophy and Yoga in the West. This is the third text cowritten by Woodroffe and Mukhyopadhyaya in the World as Power series. From Woodroffe's preface: "A comparison is made between Shakta-vada and the better known Vedanta system called Mayavada. Both systems speak of Maya but understand them differently as explained in the ten chapters of this book. Its object is not to prove the truth of this or any other system but to give an exposition of Consciousness as conceived in the doctrine of Power and in such exposition to show that it is not a mere fossil in a museum of antique thought but has practical utility today. It offers to Western philosophy a new conception of Consciousness and Mind and brings to the controversies within the Vedantic schools a profoundly conceived contri-bution in its theory of power and in its doctrine of the unity of conditioned and unconditioned being of the state of worldly experience which is Samsara and that super-worldly experience which is Moksha." This text was reissued in at least 3 editions through 1964. The first of 1929 is scarce. From the library of Blanche DeVries and Pierre Bernard. . Ganesh & Co unknown

1923réf. 7960Boston New York: Houghton Mifflin Company 1923. Second impression. 8vo 377pp. Warm gift inscription to Blanche DeVries on the front fly. Modern Indian binding of soft red leather tooled in gilt with brown spine label and gilt lettering speckled page edges marbled endpapers. Few pencil annotations and marginal markings presumably by DeVries. Near fine copy in attractive binding housed in a cloth covered slipcase. Pioneering woman Yoga guru Blanche DeVries' copy of Ellis's popular philosophical work on understanding ourselves and the world by perceiving life as a dance. This copy bears a warm gift inscription on the front fly: "To DeVries - a dancer of Life of Time Strength Imagination and Grace - in the Theater of Karma. In appreciation Hawley." From our research it seems Hawley was the lodge name of a Mrs. Loring Andrews a prominent woman teacher in Bernard's Tantric Order. Ellis's philosophy was quite influential on DeVries as in 1919 she opened a school in New York which combined Yoga with sensual dance known as a Gymnosophy Institute. Gymnosophy combined nudity with meditation dance and Eastern philosophy DeVries' studio being a pioneer institution in the movement. A few years later Ellis would write the introduction to another pioneering work in the young movement Maruice Parmelee's The New Gymnosophy which was clearly inspired by Ellis and his ideas outlined in The Dance of Life. An interesting copy with ties to multiple philosophical and cultural movements of the early 20th century. . Houghton Mifflin Company unknown
