Cover of Annie Besant: The Ancient Wisdom (Barnes & Noble Digital Library) (ePUB)

Published in 1897, Ancient Wisdom is Annie Besant’s elementary review of the general principles and truths that are the foundations of theosophical teachings. She shows how the sevenfold nature of the human individual—both the higher cerebral aspects and lower bodily ones—fit in with the cosmos and concepts such as karma and reincarnation. Chapters concern the relationship of the Physical to the Mental as well as the Astral, Kamaloka, Devachan, and the Buddhic and Nirvanic planes.

About the author


Annie Besant (1847–1933) was a British women’s rights activist and supporter of Irish and Indian self-rule. Her friendship with H. P. Blavatsky and interest in Theosophy eventually overtook most of her secular interests—such as Union organizing, the Fabian Society, and the Marxist Social Democratic Federation. Besant became the Theosophical Society’s president in 1907. She had a deep devotion to India where she traveled extensively and helped establish the Central Hindu College.
