Description
Baird T. Spalding played a ground-breaking role when he introduced the Western world to the wonders of a Far East expedition in 1894. The knowledge of "Masters" assisting and guiding humanity in the classic book Life And Teaching Of The Masters Of The Far East became legend in metaphysical circles during the first half of the 20th century and continues today as a source of spiritual enlightenment. Spalding and the others were practical in nature and the thought of spiritual masters performing miracles seemed impossible. Despite these suspect thoughts, something compelled them to move onward. So they did.
Originally published as 3 separate volumes, this new, single volume edition comes with a new introduction by Mitch Horowitz. It is within these 3 volumes that Spalding details an expedition that lasted 3 years and covered the mountainous landscape of Nepal and India near the close of the 19th century.

Baird T. Spalding, Born in England in 1872, he lived in India during his early years. At age seventeen he finished University and went to California where he stayed for two years. He then travelled to Heidelberg, Germany and studied for eight years and then returned to California for post-graduate work in Archaeology at Berkeley and Stanford. After years of working with publisher Douglas DeVorss to write and promote the Life & Teaching series, Spalding died in 1953 in Arizona. In an odd turn of events, within months of his passing, Doug DeVorss also died. To this day, countless letters have arrived through the years, from all over the world, bearing testimony of the tremendous help received from the message in these books.
