A genuine classic of the early psychic literature, back in hardcover. Writing under the pseudonym Swami Panchadasi, William Walker Atkinson introduces and explains the many aspects of occult Hindu philosophy that shaped an entire generation of Western esoteric practice.

Inside are telepathy and mind reading, clairvoyance and prevision, astral body traveling, crystal gazing, healing and the laws of attraction — laid out in the confident, instructional voice that made Atkinson one of the most widely read occult authors of his era. It is a short book, and a dense one.

How to Use It

A reference book earns its place by being opened, not by being finished.

  1. Start with the chapter that answers the question you already have. Reference works reward curiosity over order.
  2. Keep it near your altar, desk or reading chair — somewhere you will actually reach for it.
  3. Mark the pages you return to. The passages you revisit are the ones your practice is built on.
  4. Read one entry before a ritual or a study session to set the frame for what follows.

✨ Temple Tip

Pair the crystal gazing chapter with an actual scrying surface — a dark bowl of water will do. Reading about the practice and attempting it in the same hour is how these older texts were meant to be used.
