My Path to Atheism

By: Annie Besant

Write a review Read reviews Take a Quiz Solve Book Puzzle

My Path to Atheism" by Annie Besant is a compelling autobiographical account that strains the author's adventure from devout spiritual perception to atheism. Besant, an outstanding social reformer and activist, narrates her personal evolution of idea and notion, providing insights into the philosophical and highbrow demanding situations she encountered along the manner. Born right into a religious Anglican family, Besant first of all embraced Christianity and fervently adhered to its teachings. However, as she matured intellectually and engaged with an extensive variety of philosophical and medical thoughts, she began to question the dogmas and doctrines of organized faith. Through rigorous study and introspection, Besant step by step got here to reject the lifestyles of a divine being and include atheism as her worldview. In "My Path to Atheism," Besant candidly explores the highbrow and emotional turmoil she skilled as she grappled with essential questions on the character of existence, morality, and the human condition. Her journey serves as a testament to the power of critical questioning, rational inquiry, and private autonomy in shaping one's beliefs and worldview. With readability and conviction, Besant articulates her reasons for rejecting spiritual religion and advocates for an earthly and humanistic technique to life, grounded in cause, compassion, and social justice.

Four Great Religions

By: Annie Besant

[A]n attempt is made to distinguish the essential from the non-essential in each religion... For every religion in the course of time suffers from accretions due to ignorance not to wisdom, to blindness not to vision.-from the ForewordAnne Besant was one of the most popular and beloved voices of the theosophical movement of the early 20th century, and here she turns that occult philosophy, which sought to find the underlying universal truths in all religions, on religion itself. This series of lectures, published in book form in 1906, was intended to help members of each religion recognize the beauty and truth in the faiths not his own. On Hinduism's "complete presentment of spiritual truth," Zoroastrianism's "perfect practical purity," the secret of the Buddha, and the spirit of Jesus' teachings, she is passionate and enlightening in demonstrating the primal essence that unifies them all.British social reformer and writer ANNIE BESANT (1847-1933) was an early public advocate of birth control and women's health care, as well as an active proponent of theosophy. Among her books are The Ancient Wisdom (1897), Death and After (1901), and Occult Chemistry (1919).

Invisible Worlds

Annie Besant on Psychic and Spiritual Development

By: Kurt Leland

To investigate the unexplained laws of Nature and the powers latent in humanity" is one object of the Theosophical Society. Annie Besant (1847–1933), outspoken feminist, political activist, and early president of the TS, thought that psychic and spiritual development should be available to everyone, not just a chosen few. In her many books and articles providing guidelines, her goal was not to help students develop supernormal powers, but to help them increase consciousness in order to receive instruction from the ascended Masters. Besant believed this work had positively changed her life and wanted others to enjoy the same benefit. Although penned a century ago, Besant’s wisdom on the subject is still germane. Her prose is clear and inspiring, and Kurt Leland’s introduction and notes are well-informed. He helpfully divides Besant’s writings into four parts — Occultism Light and Dark, Higher Life Training, the Investigation of Different Worlds, and the Science of the Superphysical.
