(4,684 Sterne; 198 Bewertungen)
As skeptics dismissed other-worldly phenomena as the stuff of legend, trickery or delusion, nineteenth-century 'occult science' set out to explain them scientifically. Here, C. W. Leadbeater maps out the scenery and inhabitants of the astral plane, accounting along the way for phenomena such as the journey of the soul after death, magic and sorcery, vampires and werewolves, pixies, gnomes and fairies, ghosts and shades, and communication with the departed in the seance room. A leading figure in the Theosophical movement after the death of Madame Blavatsky, Leadbeater was reincarnated in Stockport, Cheshire, (now part of Greater Manchester) after an unusually long spell of 2,300 years in the heaven-world. Ordained as an Anglican clergyman, he became a prolific author on theosophical topics. His theosophical studies took him to Ceylon and Australia, where he was the spiritual leader of the Manor commune in Sydney, which still exists today. - Summary by Phil Benson (3 hr 29 min)

Very interesting , detailed information relating to a spiritual journey we all have made and will continue to make , I have listened to this book quite a few times and find it relaxing an interesting point of view and a change from the conventional dogma of most western religions.
interesting summary

This is a good relatively accessible, digestible summary of some of the things I’ve listen to on steineraudio.com, which I also highly recommend. I found this very intriguing.
Such important insight!

I can only assume this is a computer voice, otherwise it's a lady with perfect pronunciation yet atrocious cadence and sense of emphasis, stressing every other word as if a child. My mind is unable to concentrate on this speech pattern, and I can't support this choice becoming more prevalent in the future. 2 stars rather than 1 because I have no opinion on the actual content of the book.
