New Book: Kurt Leland: Rainbow Body: A History of the Western Chakra System from Blavatsky to Brennan


New Book: Kurt Leland: Rainbow Body: A History of the Western Chakra System from Blavatsky to Brennan
A well-researched work on the history of concepts of the subtle bodies, Asian tantric studies, as well as the (considerable) influence of Blavatsky’s esoteric instructions on alternative spirituality.
500 pages Ibis Press (Nov. 1 2016). Kurt Leland is the author of The Multidimensional Human. He is a national lecturer for the Theosophical Society in America and a Boston-based classical musician and award-winning composer, and he maintains a consulting and teaching practice called Spiritual Orienteering.
Table of Contents:
Never before has the story been told of how the Western chakra system developed from its roots in Indian Tantra, through Blavatsky to Leadbeater, Steiner to Alice Bailey, Jung to Joseph Campbell, Ramakrishna to Aurobindo, and Esalen to Shirley MacLaine and Barbara Brennan.
