Thought-Forms

Leadbeater had a special gift that enabled him to see beyond the realms of ordinary experiences. Every human being is capable of those same insights, however we must develop ourselves to reach inward and unlock our awareness of these things he calls, Thought Forms. We are entering into a period where science is finding these same understandings about consciousness in quantum theory. In a nutshell, the weight of our 5 senses puts a fog over our conscious awareness of those spiritual sights that he and others have written about for centuries. His doctrine is taken away from the philosophy of Theosophy. The doctrines of many religions are themselves aiming to understand our human nature similarly. Yet, clergy will not precisely say, fearing that they might reveal secret powers that lie dormant within each of us. Religions fear what would happen if the masses who live outside their particular institutional system of control would use this kind of knowledge to accomplish. Good or evil deeds might be carried with these insights.

Excellent resource on thought forms, would be 5 stars if it had the images described in the book. C.W. Leadbetter and Anne Besant are a great team, and have preserved much knowledge for us.

Words no pics, but content seems legitimate. However, without the actual illustrations, the whole point of the 'little book' is lost.

I have the Kindle version of this book. You can read the book and see the illustrations for free online. I don't think Amazon will let me put up the link as usually I see links to things taken out of reviews. Search on anandgholap or search on thought forms and you will see a website with anandgholap as part of it's URL. There you can find the Leadbeater and Besant Thought Forms book with the illustrations as well as some of their other materials. Hope this helps those looking to read the book with the illustrations. Why the illustrations weren't included are a mystery, perhaps file size?

Unfortunately, this version does not include color plates as some of the Leadbeater books that I bought decades ago, and I wanted to reference one pic for a book I'm writing. I've had to rely on a pic reprinted in another book, taken from a 19th century copy. This book does give the written description of what I was looking for, but not the pic I needed. Sorry if this review does not provide an overview, but I purchased it for a specific purpose.

I am a seer and psychic. I see and communicate with spirit entities. Thought Forms is a classic and offers the adept the tools necessary for training the spiritual/psychic eye and abilities. We all use this modality in different ways, no two person's experiences are a like. However, there are certain things that every individual has in common and that is true on the spiritual level. Energy can be seen and manipulated by thought and intent. Knowing how to correctly operate in the spiritual and psychic realms is important. Your success in life depends on it. Thought Forms goes much deeper taking you into a spiritual panorama of color, the different levels energy vibrates and more. Its good eating and digests well. Enjoy!

The content of this book is absolutely mind blowing and i would say its a must read for anyone interested in knowing the real power of thoughts.I gave it 4 stars because there are no pictures. I woud love to own a copy of this book with the images even if i have to pay for it, Its a little difficult to visualize all the thought forms.

annie besant and C.W. leadbeater together put there own experimentation into the feild of the mind here in this slim volume . it has some interesting drawing and keen insights by both authors, it reminds me of leadbeater work on auras . its not a bad book worth a read

Rather liked this book, as I have always been able to see auras and until I was in my teens, thought that everyone else could too!The book contains some very 'thought' provoking details, and although written many years ago, still has relevance today (well, it would, wouldn't it, as auras have ALWAYS existed and always will?)The book is a bit of a muddle, as you have to keep going back and forth as the illustrations are all over the place and do not follow the order of the text (hence, only 4 stars) but, nevertheless, well worth anyone's time, I think.

Need to read again and again .This book is an eye opener.. would definitely recommend to someone on a higher level of consciousness .Images do not appear though which is odd and makes the book difficult to comprehend .

Unfortunately the Kindle edition does not contain any of the images or artworks of thought forms discussed, as in the original book.

The description is a little misleading.

Excellent
