The aim of this work may be thus stated: to show that Nature is not "a fortuitous concurrence of atoms," and to assign to man his rightful place in the scheme of the Universe; to rescue from degradation the archaic truths which are the basis of all religions; to uncover, to some extent, the fundamental unity from which they all spring; finally, to show that the Occult side of Nature has never been approached by the Science of modern civilization. This scheme, it must be added, was not in contemplation when the preparation of the work was first announced. As originally announced, it was intended that the "Encyclopaedia of the Synthesis of Science, Philosophy and Religion" should be an amended and enlarged version of "Isis Unveiled." But it is perhaps desirable to state unequivocally that the teachings, however fragmentary and incomplete, contained in these volumes, belong neither to the Hindu, the Zoroastrian, the Chaldean, nor the Egyptian religion, nor to Buddhism, Islam, Judaism nor Christianity exclusively, Enclyclopaedia of the Synthesis of Science, Philosophy and Religion is the essence of all these.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR H.P. Blavastsky

Helena Petrovna Blavatsky was born prematurely at the midnight hour between 30th and 31st July (in the Russian Calendar 12th August) 1831, at Ekaterinoslav in the province of Ekaterinoslav, S. Russia. Helena Petrovna was one of the most striking world-figures in the last quarter of the nineteenth century. she was too cataclysmic, too challenging to orthodoxies, whether of Religion, Science, Philosophy or Psychology, to be ignored. She was a true iconoclast-tearing to pieces the wrappings which hid the Real from view. in 1873, H.P. Blavatsky went to the United States of America to do the work for which she had been trained. to substantiate her declarations, she wrote Isis Unveiled, in 1877, and Encyclopaedia of the Synthesis of Science, Philosophy and Religion, in 1888. The most brilliant and effective period of her life was perhaps that in England between 1887-1891. By 1890 over a thousand members in many countries were under her direction. She passed away on 8th May, 1891.
