The ES instructions of HPB
At the end of her life H.P. Blavatsky wrote a series of Instructions for the students of her newly formed Esoteric School. Michael Gomes, editor of a new edition of these Instructions, will provide a guided tour through this material, illuminating its ancient antecedents and historical influence.
These Instructions mark Mme. Blavatsky’s last effort as part of the centennial cycle to form a nucleus that could work through the Theosophical Society for the benefit of humanity.
What relevance do these teachings have for us today?
