The Classic Theosophical Text

I have to admit that I have never really even opened Blavatsky's tome. I am an A.A.B. kind of guy. But, if you are a librarian of sorts, and an esotericist, this is a must have for your library. I don't think I would understand it if I did read it anyway. In fact, I have grown out of having to put everything together in a giant hierarchical puzzle. Many that came after Madame Blavatsky referenced the SD. Enough said.
