Practical Occultism
Practical Occultism; Occultism versus the Occult Arts
Brings together two articles of 1888, "Practical Occultism" and "Occultism versus the Occult Arts". Blavatsky distinguishes the inner discipline of true occultism, ethical and demanding, from ceremonial magic and the pursuit of phenomena, and lists the conditions of life required of anyone who would become a disciple. One of her most reprinted practical texts.
