Cryptograms of the East (On Eastern Crossroads)

Криптограммы Востока

Helena Roerich en Naggar, hacia 1940
byHelena Roerich

A collection of legends, parables and prophecies from Asia about masters and religious figures—Buddha, Christ, Apollonius of Tyana, Akbar the Great, St Sergius of Radonezh—and about the coming of a new era. Presented as a compilation of Eastern traditions, it mixes legendary motifs with the interpretation of Agni Yoga, and should be read as religious literature, not as a documented folklore anthology.
