First editions. 3 Vols 8vos 144 6; 10 1; and 60pp. Publisher's bindings of red cloth with printed paper labels; limp blue cloth covers with french flaps lettered in black; and blue cloth with printed label. Generally very good with chipping and toning to labels soiling to boards some scattered foxing. Owner's name in Surya-Gita else all clean internally. The Shrine partially split along spine of limp covers. Three scarce works from James Henry Cousins 1873-1956 Irish-Indian playwright and actor who left Ireland for India in 1915 at the behest of and funded by Annie Besant president of the Theosophical Society. The collection of poems Surya-Gita is actually three sequences of poetry which includes the first edition of the title sequence and second editions of The Garland of Life and Moulted Feathers which were published in 1917 and 1919. The Path to Peace is "An essay on cultural interchange and India's Contribution Thereto with a Prefatory Note on 'Mother India.'" Besides writing and publishing poetry and plays Cousins also became involved in theosophy vegetarianism and women's suffrage. His writings were heavily influenced by Blavatsky and he became close with then president of the Theosophical Society in Adyar Annie Besant. He wrote widely on theosophy Hinduism to which he converted in 1937 and the idea of "shared sensibilities" between Celtic and Indian peoples. Cousins' poetry is reflective of these ideas and beliefs and quite mystical in flavor. Ganesh & Co unknown
1925ref. 5544Berkeley: Sather Gate Book Shop 1925. Leaflet advertisement 18x12cm recto only. Nearly fine with instances of faint creasing and soiling. Interesting advertisement for a talk on mysticism and economics and including a reading of The Mystical Interpretation of Christmas by Rosicrucian Mabel Morrin Kellogg at the iconic Sather Gate Book Shop in Berkeley. Though the flyer is undated we find the title it advertises listed as a Recent Rosicrucian Publication in the May 1921 issue of Rays from the Rose Cross. We find Kellogg's name in various Bay Area papers as a "dramatic reader" as early as 1908. She was also a member of the Temple of the People a theosophical organization in Halcyon CA following the teachings of Madame Blavatsky. A wonderful piece of California occult ephemera. .

Overall Near Fine. 8vo. 7.5 x 4.2 x 2.1 inches. Weight: 15.4 ounces. NTSC. MYS 76326. Video: VHS. Originally produced under the auspices of Krishnamurti Foundation Trust Ltd. in 1976. Jiddu Krishnamurti 1895 1986 was an Indian philosopher speaker and writer. In his early life he was groomed to be the new "World Teacher" but later rejected this mantle and withdrew from the Theosophy organization behind it. His interests included psychological revolution the nature of mind meditation inquiry human relationships and bringing about radical change in society. He stressed the need for a revolution in the psyche of every human being and emphasised that such revolution cannot be brought about by any external entity be it religious political or social. Krishnamurti was born in south India in what is now the modern day Madanapalle of Andhra Pradesh. In early adolescence he met occultist and theosophist Charles Webster Leadbeater on the grounds of the Theosophical Society headquarters at Adyar in Madras. He was subsequently raised under the tutelage of Annie Besant and Leadbeater leaders of the Theosophical Society at the time who believed him to be a 'vehicle' for an expected "World Teacher" or avatar. While still a young man he disavowed this idea and dissolved the Order of the Star in the East an organisation that had been established to support it. Krishnamurti said he had no allegiance to any nationality caste religion or philosophy and spent the rest of his life travelling the world speaking to large and small groups as well as individuals. He wrote many books among them "The First and Last Freedom" and "The Only Revolution". David Bohm FRS 1917 1992 was an American scientist who has been described as one of the most significant theoretical physicists of the 20th century and who contributed unorthodox ideas to quantum theory neuropsychology and the philosophy of mind. Bohm warned of the dangers of rampant reason and technology advocating instead the need for genuine supportive dialogue which he claimed could broaden and unify conflicting and troublesome divisions in the social world.Bohm's main concern was with understanding the nature of reality in general and of consciousness in particular as a coherent whole which according to Bohm is never static or complete.

2002ref. 46193Milwaukee WI Destiny Toad Press 2002. Paperback First Edition 2002; First Printing so stated. First Edition 2002; First Printing so stated. Fine in Wraps: binding square and secure; text clean. Virtually 'As New'. NOT a Remainder Book-Club or Ex-Library. 8vo. xiii 417 pages. Academic Press Paperback. The author has the natural skill to express himself by way of a comprehensive communicative language and exceptional ability to present the complex concepts in a simple way. And most importantly the material in the book charts a very coherent model of reality with clearly stated assumptions and logically drawn conclusions. The author does not play with words and the book is not a typical contemporary philosophical exercise in linguistics. If the reader is interested in the models of reality developed by the Eastern philosophy and Western science - then this book would deliver a surprising bonus - it is neither the rewrite nor the reference to all that has been written so far. The model presented in the book is absolutely original and not based on any obvious sources other than author's own powerful thinking process validated by personal experience. The spotting of the difference between the awareness and consciousness the reflection on the reality as the existence's experience of itself are the brightest and most interesting threads of the book. All of these subjects are communicated with the simplicity of the sage. And illustrated with appealing graphics. The reader will appreciate that the author does not forget that he is presenting the model - usually the writers dealing with the Big Questions related to the nature of reality turn into the patronizing mode of the all and the only wise. The author of this material is gloriously free from the self-exaltation and pompousness. The on-line book was composed of two parts. The second one focused on the model of reality as the existence's experience of itself is a must read for everybody eager to extend his conceptual horizon and deepen the understanding of his consciousness.
