The Secret Doctrine, the Synthesis of Science, Religion, and Philosophy, Volume 3. This volume completes the papers left to Annie Besant by H.P. Blavatsky with the exception of a few scattered articles. Annie had the difficult task of publishing hundreds of notes as this third volume, and while only making grammatical corrections and filling in some gaps, she did her best to leave these as written. Included are many papers on the origin and danger of magic, the occult, secret mysteries, initiations, symbolism, historical figures and organizations, various religions, and scientific principles.
