Reflections on an Ageless Wisdom ─ A Commentary on the Mahatma Letters to A. P. Sinnett

After pioneering Theosophist H. P. Blavatsky told the English journalist A. P. Sinnett that her esoteric knowledge had come from higher beings called "Mahatmas," he himself corresponded with Mahatmas Koot Hoomi and Morya from 1880 to 1885. Their letters to him about the meaning of existence stormed the bastions of religious prejudice when they were first published in 1923. Today, they still fascinate those seeking to probe the nature of consciousness and the ancient wisdom found in all religions.

Eminent Theosophist Joy Mills's long-awaited commentary, based on the 1999 chronological edition of the Letters by Vicente Hao Chin Jr., is the most comprehensive and authoritative to date. Following the Mahatmas, Mills focuses on the values all spiritual seekers must embrace on the spiritual journey. "May these letters call you as they continue to call me to keep on exploring," she says, "for truly there is no other way to go!"

"Joy Mills makes the letters come alive. She gives us an opportunity to consider the Mahatma's advice as if he were speaking directly to us."---Edward Abdill, author of The Secret Gateway

"Joy Mills makes the letters more accessible to me than at any time since I discovered them at age nineteen. Yes, this is a serious tome, but for those for whom the meaning of life is endlessly fascinating, it reads like a novel."---Victoria Moran, author of Creating a Charmed Life, Lit from Within, and Shelter for the Spirit

Joy Mills is past president of both the American and Australian sections of the Theosophical Society as well as past international vice-president. She is also past director of the Krotona Institute School of Theosophy in Ojai, California, where she continues to teach. Her several books include 100 Years of Theosophy and The One True Adventure.
