An Anthology of Mysticism and Mystical Philosophy

First published in 1927, An Anthology of Mysticism and Mystical Philosophy is a valuable contribution to the literature of mysticism in general, both in its theoretical and experimental aspects. It contains over seven hundred and fifty quotations from one hundred and fifty-eight ancient and modern mystical, philosophical, and scientific works. This book also acts as a supplement to William Kingsland’s previous volume Rational Mysticism for it is illustrative of the principles therein set forth.

William Kingsland was an English engineer, scientist, author and Theosophist. He was President of the Blavatsky Lodge in London and was present in the meetings where H. P. Blavatsky answered members’ questions on The Secret Doctrine.
