The Science of the Sacraments by C. W. Leadbeater Pdf

Adherents of theosophy, the esoteric philosophy popular at the turn of the 20th century, believed that science and religion could be reconciled, and here, in this 1920 book, the renowned spiritualist Charles W. Leadbeater, a leader of theosophical thought, examines the Catholic Mass from a theosophical perspective, demonstrating how the rites and rituals of the Eucharist, Baptism, Holy Orders, and the other sacraments harness a mystical magic that unites worshippers in one divine spirit. Drawing on both traditional spiritual belief about the power at work during the Mass and modern concepts of a paranormal connection between the corporeal and the otherworldly, this is a work that will intrigue those of great faith as well as students of comparative mythology.British author CHARLES WEBSTER LEADBEATER (1854-1934) was ordained as an Anglican priest, but later joined the prominent Theosophical Society and traveled to India to study alternative spiritual and occult practices, eventually settling into his life as a clairvoyant and author. His other works include Man Visible and Invisible and The Science of the Sacrament.

Science of the Sacraments by Charles Leadbeater Pdf

Charles Webster Leadbeater (16 February 1854 - 1 March 1934) was an influential member of the Theosophical Society, author on occult subjects and co-initiator with J. I. Wedgwood of the Liberal Catholic Church.Originally a clergyman of the Church of England, his interest in spiritualism caused him to end his affiliation with the Church of England in favour of the Theosophical Society, where he became an associate of Annie Besant.Leadbeater's talents as a prolific author on occultism kept him an important presence in Theosophy until his death in 1934.This book, written in 1920. Reveals the true occult meaning behind church ceremonies.Contents:A New Idea of Church WorshipThe Holy EucharistHoly Baptism and ConfirmationHoly OrdersThe Lesser SacramentsThe Altar and its AppurtenancesThe VestmentsMost Holy SacramentThe Soul and its Vestures.Charles Leadbeater has investigated the energies of the Christian sacraments and written about them in this book *The Science of Sacraments: An Occult and Clairvoyant Study of the Christian Eucharist* - one of the most significant works of Christian esotericism.In his prologue to an edition of this book, John Kersey refers to the Eucharist proposed by Leadbeater as "a radical reinterpretation of the context of the Eucharist seen within a theological standpoint of esoteric magic and universal salvation; it is Catholicism expressing the love of God to the full without the burdens of needless guilt and fear, and the false totem of the temporal powers of the church."

SCIENCE OF THE SACRAMENTS (CLA by Charles Webster Leadbeater Pdf

Excerpt from The Science of the Sacraments There are men who have these powers in working order, and are able by their use to obtain a vast amount of most interesting information about the world which most of us as yet cannot see. The news that such investigators bring back to us is happily of the most reassuring character; they are able to tell us that divine law rules in these higher worlds of finer matter, just as it does down here in grosser matter; that to everything in this world there is an inner side, and that that inner side is often far greater and more glorious than the outer which to our blindness seems to be the whole.

The Practical Science of the Cross in the Use of the Sacraments of Penance and the Eucharist. Transl by Jean Nicolas Grou Pdf

This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1871 edition. Excerpt: ... of so many dainties, treat me as a kind physician, who, before ordering food for a sick man, purges his body from the humours which would corrupt it and change it into poison. Heal my soul before nourishing it with the Bread of Life; purify it from its defilements before clothing it with Thy Flesh; kindle in my heart the fire of Thy Love, in order that I may receive in my bosom the wellbeloved spouse of my soul; wash me in the blood of penance before inebriating me with the Blood of the Eucharist. twenty-fourth meditation. The Part which the Faithful bear in the Sacrifice in the Consecration. I. The Faithful are with Jesus Christ the Victim of the Sacrifice. i. Christian soul, I here present to thy admiration the most profound and Divine treasures of the holy Eucharist, all that It contains most glorious to God, the Sovereign Master of all things, and most profitable to man, become the child of God by regeneration in Jesus Christ, and the member of a body of which Jesus Christ has constituted Himself the Head. The depth of the Love of God is the union of His Divine Nature with human nature, an union wherein His Eternal Word is as it were annihilated; the depth of the love of Jesus christ is the union of His Divine Humanity with the members of His Church, an union so close that Jesus Christ lives in His members, and that all those who are united to Him by the bonds of His Blood are no longer men except in appearance, but in truth are Christians, and transformed into Jesus Christ. By the first union God and Man make but one in Jesus Christ; it may be said that by the second god-Man and the Christian are but one, all is common between GoD and the GodMan, all is common between Jesus Christ and the Christian man. This wonder is displayed...

Beyond the Narratives by John Michael Greer Pdf

Studies on druidry, Jungian psychology, politics, history and the time ahead In 2003 John Michael Greer became the seventh Grand Archdruid of the Ancient Order of Druids in America (AODA), an initiatory organization teaching Celtic nature spirituality which was founded in 1912. The outcome was that his writings began to stray into territory very far from the Hermetic occult philosophy that had been the previous focus of his career. The essays included in this volume chronicle some of the themes he explored as a result: Druidry, Jungian psychology, politics, history, and the shape of the future in a society in decline.

The Sacramental Mystery by Paul Haffner Pdf

The seven sacraments lie at the centre of Christian life and experience, for here God the Holy Trinity touches human lives and hearts. This book is one of the few at the present time to offer a global synthesis of the main themes in the sacramental mystery in which the human and divine, the material and the spiritual realms are intimately intertwined. Paul Haffner outlines how the sacraments are the chief means in the Church through which God's people are reconciled to the Father, through His Son, by the power of the Holy Spirit. The book illustrates classical issues like the conditions for the validity and the efficacy of the sacraments, as well as the minister, recipient and effects of these sacred mysteries; it deals with particular topics like the necessity of Baptism, the sacrificial character of the Eucharist, and the nature of marriage. As he examines each sacrament in turn, the author also explores how new ecumenical questions affect Christian sacramental understanding. 'I warmly commend this work on the subject of sacramental theology' Archbishop Csaba Ternyak Secretary of the Vatican Congregation of the Clergy Paul Haffner is lecturer in systematic and dogmatic theology at the Pontifical Gregorian University, the Pontifical Lateran University, the Pontifical Athenaeum 'Regina Apostolorum' and the Pontifical Institute 'Regina Mundi' in Rome. His publications include 'The Mystery of Creation', 'The Mystery of Reason' and 'The Mystery of Mary' - all also published by Gracewing.

T&T Clark Handbook of Sacraments and Sacramentality by Martha Moore-Keish,James Farwell Pdf

Introducing readers to the contemporary field of sacramental theology, this volume covers the biblical and historical foundations, a survey of the state of the discipline, and a collection of constructive essays representing major themes, practices and approaches to sacraments and sacramentality in the contemporary world. The volume starts with a set of foundational essays that offer broad introduction to the field of sacramental theology from contemporary scholars, analysing a number of historical figures in order to illumine and inform contemporary sacramental theology. The second part of the volume is dedicated to a series of essays on sacramentality, and includes attention to elements of space, time, ritual action, music, and word, all as aspects of what Christians have termed “sacramental” reality. The third set of essays includes attention to each of the seven practices that have most commonly been termed “sacraments” in Christian traditions: baptism; eucharist/Lord's Supper; confirmation; confession, forgiveness and reconciliation; marriage; ordination; and anointing. The final part of this volume features scholars who are working on sacraments in conversation with contemporary academic disciplines: critical race theory, queer theory, comparative theology, and disability studies.
