 GREAT SECRET, OCCULTISM UNVEILED"You will be as gods, knowing good and evil." - So concludes what Eliphas Levi considered to be his last testament, his most important and final treatise, and a summation of his esoteric philosophy. This volume is the conclusion of the work he started with Book One, The Hieratic Mystery or the Traditional Documents of High Initiation, published as The Book of Splendours (Weiser, 1984). The Great Secret contains his final two works: Book Two, The Royal Mystery or Art of Subduing the Powers, in which Levi discusses such topics as Evil, the Outer Darkness, the Great Secret, Magical Sacrifice, Evocations, the Arcana of Solomon's Ring, and the Terrible Secret. Book Three, The Sacerdotal Mystery or the Art of Being Served by Spirits, covers Aberrant Forces, the Chaining of the Devil, Sacred and Accursed Rites, Divination, Dark Intelligence, and the Great Arcanum. Eliphas Levi From the editor: "...His influence is apparent in the work and the thought of figures as diverse as Anna Kingsford (albeit in a negative way); Papus; A. E. Waite; W. Wynn Westcott; and Aleister Crowley. Most significant of all was his influence upon Madame H. P Blavatsky. Her seminal work, Isis Unveiled (1877), is heavily indebted to Levi's ideas on the Kabbalah, and especially to his notion of the all-pervading Astral Light. Indeed, there is no question but that every element of western tradition taken up by the Theosophical Society-wittingly or unwittingly-as part of the "Secret Doctrine" has its ultimate origin in the writings of Eliphas Levi. This should not surprise us, for Levi's work is a cornerstone of the 19th-century "Occult Revival," the movement that is itself a major structure within the great edifice of the Western Mystery Tradition. And this is true of all his work. We can gain much from his great textbooks of magic, but there is far more-and of even greater significance- to be teased out from the pages of this final gift to his disciples, a gift so truly named The Great Secret." -R. A. Gilbert Bristol, England
