The Idyll Of The White Lotus: Together With An Epitome Of Theosophical Teachings And Esoteric Theosophy By William Q. Judge

This work contains a story which has been told in all ages and among every people. It is the tragedy of the soul. Attracted by desire, the ruling element in the lower nature of man, it stoops to sin; brought to itself by suffering, it turns for help to the redeeming spirit within; and in the final sacrifice achieves its apotheosis and sheds a blessing on mankind.
