The series is described as "A Complete System of knowledge, rituals, and exercises effective in the development of true magical power and of magical understanding released in book form under authority of the Chiefs of a valid, living occult order." This volume The Triumph of Light - The High Mystery of Psyche, sets forth "the long historical growth of the Western Tradition, and of the great flowering of psychological enquiry, as there relate to the nature of the psyche and to personal inner development. It makes clear the meaning of Adepthood, of the Knowledge and Conversation of the Holy Guardian Angel, and of the supernal attainments." The authors, Melita Denning and Osborne Phillips [ Vivian Godfrey and Leon Barcynski ], were Grand Masters of the magical order "Ordo Aurum Solis", and wrote a number of well-known books outlining magical practices. NOTE something has happened to the covers causing them to bubble slightly and to "sweat" and become a little tacky. For this reason the book has a mylar covere put aroud it so it will not adhere to other volumes. We strongly recommend not removing it. Internally it is bright and clean, with just the edge of the text block a little darkened. Sold "as is." Item #68638
