Mabel Collins: The Collection of Best Works: Light on the Path, The Illumined Way, Through the Gates of Gold, A Cry From Afar, The Idyll of the White Lotus, The Story Of Sensa.

by Mabel Collins

Writer Mabel Collins was a very important theosophist, member of The Theosophical Society in England, and, at one time collaborated with H. P. Blavatsky in the editorship of the magazine Lucifer, and in one of her books. This collection compiles seven of her most renowned works, including the one that made her a household name in the theosophist world, Light on the Path, a "treatise written for the personal use of those who are ignorant of the Eastern Wisdom and who desire to enter within its influence." The book is said to be of very ancient origin, written in an archaic form of Sanskrit. Classic among occultists, it is the best guide known for those who have taken the first step on the Path of Attainment. Its writer has veiled the meaning of the rules in the way always customary to mystics, so that to the one who has no grasp on the Truth these pages will probably appear to be a mass of contradictions and practically devoid of sense. The following is the complete list of titles ON THE PATH; THE ILLUMINED WAYTHROUGH THE GATES OF GOLDA CRY FROM AFAR; ILLUSSIONS THE IDYLL OF THE WHITE LOTUSSENSA

About the author

Mabel Collins was born in St Peter Port, Guernsey. She was a writer of popular occult novels, a fashion writer and an anti-vivisection campaigner. According to Vittoria Cremers, as related by Aleister Crowley, Collins was at one time being romantically pursued by both Cremers and alleged occultist Robert D'Onston Stephenson. Cremers claimed that during this time she found five bload-soaked ties in a trunk under Stephenson's bed, corresponding to the five murders committed in Whitechapel by Jack the Ripper. Stephenson is no longer a candidate as being Jack the Ripper due to the efforts of competent, modern researchers. However, Stephenson was a rival with Cremers for Collins' affections, and this account cannot be independently confirmed
