The Tree of Life: A Study in Magic
Author: Israel Regardie
Format: Paperback (2nd Edition)
Pages: 284
Features: Illustrations
Condition: New

The most comprehensive introduction available to the Golden Dawn system of initiation. An ideal introduction to the numerous complex and obscure mystical writings of Aleister Crowley.

Over fifty years ago Israel Regardie set himself the gigantic task of making accessible to the intelligent layman the root principles upon which Magic is built  principles which Aleister Crowely devoted his life to exploring and revealing. Drawing on his experience as personal secretary to Crowley and his involvement with the Golden Dawn system, Regardie skillfully unifies a wealth of diverse material into a marvellously coherent whole. The result is The Tree of Life, a book which has become the definitive overview of the Western Mystery Tradition.

Contents include: Yoga and Magic as the two branches of mysticism; Magic as distinct from psychism, witchcraft and other disciplines; exercise techniques for developing the will and imagination; plus much more.
