Review
The books of Alice A. Bailey, written in cooperation with a Tibetan teacher between 1919 1949, constitute a continuation of the Ageless Wisdom, a body of esoteric teaching handed down from ancient times in a form which is always suitable to each period. Intended to precede and condition the coming era, the Alice A. Bailey writings offer an unparalleled spiritual approach to such subjects as the teaching on Shamballa and the Path of spiritual evolution; the spiritual Hierarchy; the new discipleship and training in meditation as a form of service; the teaching on the seven rays and the new psychology of the soul; the teaching on esoteric astrology; and the new world religion, which emphasizes the common thread of truth linking all the major world faiths.

About the Author
*Alice A. Bailey, (1880-1949) From her conservative British background, Alice Bailey's life led her in many directions, but always in one direction--towards the time when through drastic personal experience of many kinds she had acquired a synthesis of outlook and understanding, and an absolute conviction that one divine life pervades and animates the one humanity; that the Plan for humanity requires the cooperation and service of trained and dedicated human beings intelligently informed about world affairs, in collaboration with those who form the spiritual Hierarchy, the inner government of the planet. Her life work became an integral part of this synthesis and this realization. Without in the least losing any of her very human qualities and involvement, her soul took up its commitment to her Master, and her personality provided full cooperation in the field of her accepted service. Basically her work developed as a duality--her discipleship service which included the establishment of an esoteric school; and her initially reluctant agreement to work with the Tibetan, Djwhal Khul, in the writing of a series of books presenting the next phase in the continuity of the Ageless Wisdom teaching. A total of twenty-four books were written by Alice Bailey. These books constitute a continuation of the Ageless Wisdom, a body of esoteric teaching handed down from ancient times in a form which is always suitable to each period. Intended to precede and condition the New Age, the Alice Bailey books offer an unparalleled spiritual approach to the teaching on Shamballa and the Path of spiritual evolution; the spiritual Hierarchy; the new discipleship and training in meditation as a form of service; the teaching on the seven rays and the new psychology of the soul; and the common thread of truth linking all the major world faiths. In addition to her work as an author and lecturer, Alice Bailey established the Lucis Publishing Company, making the teachings of Djwhal Khul available to spiritual seekers and students around the world for over 75 years. Reprinting of the books is financed through a revolving Fund under the administration of the Lucis Trust, a non-profit organization also founded by Alice A. Bailey. No royalties are paid and copyrights are owned by the Lucis Trust. Through these organizations, Alice Bailey provided for the continued publication of these teachings beyond her physical lifetime.

In a world in which there are so many books written to help us understand more about ourselves and the universe, Ponder on This is a book like no other. Containing excerpts taken from 30+ books dictated by a Tibetan master to Alice Bailey, this book has answers - and profound questions - for anyone who truly aspires to know more about the world in which we live, and our potential for living a spiritual existence.
If you are a soul seeking the path, or on the path seeking direction, this is a wonderful book to have. I guarantee that if this is your first Bailey book, it won't be your last.

An excellent presentation of the themes found in the 24 books by Alice A. Bailey and Djwhal Khul. Listed alphabetically by subject, this is a great place to start a quest for enlightenment. Topics include Energy and Force, Mind, Death, the Plan, Time, Space and Money to name but a few.

I was very impressed by Amazon when it suggested reading Ponder on This by Alice Bailey. Not least because I already have it! It is a great book. Actually, it is more than a great book, it is a gateway into a whole world of books and amazing ideas. For a reader with an interest in meditation and yoga, the book is ideal. It deals with such practical concerns as criticism and worry and then exalts the reader with revelations about Sanat Kumara, "He Who is called in the bible "The Ancient of Days"". The scope is vast.

This book is everything that I could have hoped for in a Compilation book. The topics are good, the ideas thought provoking and seeming to feel true to heart. I would recommend this book in a second. I find that it is valuable in my spiritual development. The book is paperback but the binding is sown well. I am very happy with my purchase.

This CD would not play in my computer. So I can't rate this one. The preview was very interesting. Enough for me to order it.
