About Occult Fundamentals And Spiritual
Product Description Shortly after leaving the Alpha et Omega (MacGregor Mather's reformulation of the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn), Paul Foster Case developed a lecture series entitled "The First Year Course". The purpose of the lectures was to provide students with a firm foundation in spiritual science and practice and to prepare them for Paul Case's rendition of the Golden Dawn Order. When this coursework was expanded in 1924, the contents of the "The First Year Course" became known as Section A, `The Life Power', and Section B,`The Seven Steps of Spiritual Unfoldment'. The `Life Power' provided a firm foundation of Occult Fundamentals and the `The Seven Steps of Spiritual Unfoldment' utilized the Major Arcana of the Tarot to communicate the stages of Spiritual Evolution. The early writings of Paul Foster Case are exceptionally clear and represent some of his finest work. Anyone approaching these lessons for the first time are encouraged to spend at least two weeks on each before proceeding to the next. This is precisely the manner in which the lectures and lessons were intended to be assimilated. Paul Case utilizes images in addition to words to communicate principles. Proceeding in such a manner will allow the corresponding ideas to take root and mature and thus facilitate understanding of the next lesson in the series. Review "Dr. Paul Clark was one of the seven Stewards that trained under B.O.T.A. head Ann Davies receiving the advanced teachings of the Order. This well written book includes a short biography of Paul Foster Case by Paul Clark which includes many previously little known areas of the life and association with Master R who became Case's lifetime guide. The gems within this book are presented in such a manner that they shine a new light on the teachings of Paul Case and explain many nuances of Case's teaching that are not readily apparent. This is an excellent book from a high caliber teacher of the Golden Dawn and is a must for any Golden Dawn enthusiast." -- Pat Zalewski, renown author of 'The Magical Tarot of the Golden Dawn' "Paul Foster Case has been instrumental in unveiling the most profound mysteries of the Tarot, the Qabalah, and other important facets of the Western Esoteric Tradition in an approachable manner. His best known works, including The Tarot: A Key to the Wisdom of the Ages, The True and Invisible Rosicrucian Order, and The Book of Tokens are true gems of wisdom that continue to inspire and inform new generations of spiritual seekers. However, as noted by Dr. Paul Clark in the biographical introduction to Occult Fundamentals and Spiritual Unfoldment, the author behind these treasures has often been a mystery to his readers. Case's early writings, compiled by the Fraternity of the Hidden Light in this new book, provide further proof of Case's substantial esoteric knowledge and insight. It is a most welcome addition to the illuminating body of work we have come to expect from a masterful teacher." -- Chic and Tabatha Cicero, Chief Adepts of the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn
