Invisible Helpers is a landmark text of the theosophic movement; the title refers to those who depart their bodies during the night, and render assistance to others in their lives. A leading scholar of the theosophic movement for decades, Charles Webster Leadbeater wrote about various supernatural and occult phenomena which he had encountered over decades as a priest. In the case of Invisible Helpers, he is referring to the beneficent entities that provide assistance to people during a time of great need, such as a sudden chance calamity. Leadbeater passionately believed that such fortune-bestowing entities could be seen and even communicated with. To this end he discusses the path of spiritual attuning which a person may embark upon to attain correspondence with these good helpers. The various qualities of personality and mentality; such as calmness; an ability to exert self-control; and a single-minded devotion to the goal at hand, are presented as examples. Although quite brief, Invisible Helpers is a profound text which continues to attract a significant readership in the modern day. The sincerity with which Leadbeater instructs those wishing for a greater bond with both the invisible, spirit world and the readily observable world of people and things around us, is plain to behold. |
