Review
An extract from the Tibetan teacher, written in 1934 briefly explains the intent of these teachings: The books that I have written are sent out with no claim for their acceptance. They may, or may not, be correct, true and useful. It is for you to ascertain their truth by right practice and by the exercise of the intuition. Neither I nor A.A.B. is the least interested in having them acclaimed as inspired writing, or in --Lucis Publishing Company

A WOW subject, you say? Definitely! In approximately 150 pages, Alice Bailey succeeds in explaining evolution like Darwin never could! She goes from the evolution of substance, to that of form, which leads to the Thinker, MAN. He, too, evolves as consciousness does. The goal of evolution is sought and found in the ultimate evolution of the cosmos. Few pages but hefty reading.

In this book the scientific relation of matter and consciousness is discussed as evolution progressively affects the atomic substance of all forms. The "atom" emerges as a miniature but complete replica of the energy structure common to all forms of life--cosmic, planetary, human and subhuman.
This book provides an intelligible basis to the occultist for a study of consciousness in depth and in right relation to the life pattern of the universe.

Good book. However, these publishers (Kessinger) are not the publishers of Bailey's books, so it's hard to know if this is the complete or even correct version.
I have read the version published by Bailey through the Lucis Trust--the copyright holders and original publishers. That book is available on Amazon and would be my suggested purchase if you're thinking of buying this book.

Amazon shot me an email with this ebook for sale . I checked it out, and bought it right away. I'm glad I did. Stop and think for a moment, when did you become aware that you were aware. Do you remember it?? Was it a bad experience, a death in the family? a divorce? a birth? a tax audit? great sex? I got my awakening in a major storm at sea, when I was in the Navy.The waves were coming over the top of the ship,for a while we were completely underwater, We actually had to "wait"to see whether or not we were.That must have taken 3 seconds.It was the longest measure of time I had ever experienced. I realized, that I was realizing, that I had realized. After that storm, I was born again, I was a brand and new man. I was different.I knew it then, and I knew I had moved on from the kid I was before the storm.I was OK with it. It had brought clarity. When we returned to port, I went on shore, the trees looked so good to me. The ground made me feel gravity in a whole new exciting way. The grass was a different color of green I"d never seen before. Are you getting my drift?? No pon intended. I shared that experience, to say, that this is what this book can bring to you. Our hearts start beating about 18 to 20 days after conception.I"d like to think, it brought consciousness with it, or vice verse. A decision[or a program] was made to start the heartbeat. This is part of the reason why studying CONSCIOUSNESS takes up a lot of my time these days.If it's not what we call GOD, it's the closest we're gonna get without some sort of major divine intervention. BUY this ebook!!!!It will turn some lights on in your life for sure. If nothing else, it'll let you know that each heartbeat is a 'New Beat', not a continuation.

For a Book Written in 1922 It Has Startling Relevance for Today
December 25, 2012
Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase
I had no idea that as far back 1922 people were thinking that even atoms had consciousness and all the ramifications that might go along with that idea. This was a real revelation to me and I am sure it will be to others who are seeking to understand their own consciousness as well as the mind of the universe. The only reason I did not give this book five stars is because I wanted it to go still further down the road of consciousness. I wholeheartedly recommend this book.

In Alice Bailey's small book, she outlines a premise that has profound consequences. If, as she states, consciousness is imbued into the very structure of matter, then it follows the universe is constructed on principles directly related to the process of consciousness, the mind of God, as it were. Very few modern writers have built upon Alice Bailey's great insight. However, one modern writer that not only credits Bailey, but takes her concept to the next level is Marc Seifer, in his book Transcending the Speed of Light. Just as Bailey outlines different levels of consciousness, so too does Seifer. Alice Bailey is one of the most important occult writers from the early 20th century, and I highly recommend her other works as well.Transcending the Speed of Light: Consciousness, Quantum Physics, and the Fifth Dimension

A must read for any student of the Wisdom Traditions. Along with her teacher Helena Blavatsky, Alice Bailey is to be considered one of the great thinkers of the last century. Peace, Love and Happiness to you all. Namaste.
