A Rudimentary Outline of the Ancient Wisdom for Humanity
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 21 years ago
"Saving the World", presents the Ancient Wisdom as conveyed by the Master Djwhal Khul as He presented it to Alice Bailey for publication under her name (she also wrote several books herself under his tutelage). "Saving the World' by Henry Guy in collaboration with other members of his school, is a practical, hands-on plan/introduction (albeit basic) for humanity who have never heard/read about the Ancient Wisdom/Bailey books. Unfortunately, few books have been written that remotely compare with the Bailey books/Ancient Wisdom given by the Master Djwhal Khul (Who also gave Blavatsky a half century earlier the contents of "The Secret Doctrine"). This is because He is part of the spiritual/5th kingdom and no longer human (4th kingdom)as evidenced by His writings which no human could have possibly have written (and few comprehend).This book is still a must read for all intelligent & aspiring humanity (and novices of the Ancient Wisdom). Another introductory book (written by Alice Bailey herself) on the Ancient Wisdom (especially about meditation, which is sadly absent in "Saving the World", and a fundamental requirement for soul contact/infusion/growth) is "From Intellect to Intuition).

For me, this book had new insights into the age-old question of our role here on earth, including the challenges we face in trying to live a spiritual life in a physical world that seems to make that very difficult.. I really like this book a lot and plan to give copies to those of like-mind..

An Introduction to the Ancient Wisdom
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 22 years ago
"Saving The World" ("redeeming"-would be more accurate), presents the Ancient Wisdom as conveyed by the Master Djwhal Khul as he presented it to Alice Bailey. Unfortunately, few books have been written (to remotely compare with the Bailey Books in content) about the Ancient Wisdom since the Bailey books were written. Even Jung said,- the worse thing he feared were the Jungians who (mis)interpreted the information of his works (this is compounded with the Bailey books because they are even more challenging/comprehensive, requiring spiritual advancement as well as mental discernment to understand/convey properly).With these detractions in mind, this book is still a must read.
A most meaningful, thought-provoking, metaphysical read
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 22 years ago
Saving The World by Henry Guy is a candid look at some very troubling and widespread spiritual questions, such as "Why does life have to be difficult?" and "Is there any hope for resolving the antagonism between people, races, nations, and religions?" Visions of the relationships between different states of being and hope for the future are characteristic of this thoughtful study. Recommended for students of philosophy, religion, and personal spirituality, Saving The World is a most meaningful, thought-provoking, metaphysical read.
