SAKTISM. An erotic mysticism associated with the worship of goddesses.-from A Dictionary of TheosophyHere, in one concise volume first published in 1926, is a glossary of the language of theosophy, or 'the essential truth underlying all religious, ethical, philosophical, and other teaching,' from Abhava ('Non-being, non-existence, negation') to Zarathushtra ('The name given to one of the Servers'). Steeped in the spirituality of ancient India and fueled by the occult fads of the early 20th century, this is a fascinating, highly browsable guide to a forerunner of today’s wide-ranging, metaphysically encompassing New Age thought.Also available from Cosimo Classics: Besterman’s Crystal-Gazing.British bibliographer, and editor THEODORE BESTERMAN (1904-1976) is remembered chiefly as a scholar of the philosopher Voltaire, though his interests ranged from anthropology to the paranormal. His many books include Annie Besant: A Modern Prophet and Divining Rod: An Experimental and Psychological Investigation.
