The topic tackled by this book may seem intimidating at a first glance, since "theosophy" sounds both mysterious and pretentious for the larger body of readers. Nevertheless, this is an illusion; nothing is what it seems to be, since Mr. Eugene's Matzota's personal approach is both elegant, though pedantic, and entirely approachable. Theosophy creates a bridge between the eastern and western esotericism, using occult and mystical philosophies who claim that ancient teachings could provide a path to salvation and enlightenment. Barely known in most parts of the world, it has become popular due to the involvement of members of the Theosophical Society in the West in spreading some adapted versions of Buddhist Modernism. In addition to reviewing the three waves of Theosophy, the focus of the book is laid on a slightly different aspect of Theosophy, namely its considerable contribution to the ascent of the New Age movement. To make a long story short, the author endeavors to introduce us in the matter by explaining the genesis of Theosophy, similarities and differences between the previous referential teachings of Theosophy and its modern appearance, insisting on ideas related to HP Blavatsky and the Theosophical Society. The focus is on analyzing the universe, humanity and Divinity, and the mutual effects. An interesting chapter is dedicated to the controversial issue whether Nazism was or not influenced by Theosophy: Blavatsky and Hitler. The answer is that Hitler seemingly took over concepts from Blavatsky's Secret Doctrine (and Theosophy in general, in spite of his hatred for it), such as evolution of races and the Aryan race, adjusting them to his own concepts, while being otherwise influenced by several philosophers, mainly Fichte and Schopenhauer, but also by racists Gobineau and Chamberlain. Gradually, focus is directed towards the social, cultural and spiritual background of the years 1950-60, and analysis is carried out to reveal the causes and modalities of the inflowing of the Theosophical Society's concepts and manners into the new Age movement. Evidence is brought about that the Theosophical Society has been not only the main factor of dissemination of the occult literature in the Western countries throughout the 20th century, but also the engine of generating a series of deeply resented transformations at the level of the whole society. The thrilling, which is also the focus is the impact of Theosophy on music New Age - the sides of inherent and extrinsic thereof: concerts in stadiums like huge venues for worship Universe as the new god and shape expression and content and approach "prayer" (music and lyrics). Analysis of a text belonging to a representative of the spirit of New Age music brings a compelling argument to support its contention author. Finally, the book is a huge gain not only for the beginners, or for those willing to improve their knowledge in the matter, but also ''pour les connoisseurs'', out of several evident reasons. It would be, first of all, that pleasant narrative voice, keenly expert in telling us a fascinating story, far from intimidating us, as we would have first expected by taking a glimpse at the title. The layout and organization are impeccable, so that we could easily use the book as a handbook, after all. Bibliography and the use of the quotations add to the orchestration of an endeavor, which is not only precious and written from the height of real expertise, but also a highly intellectual pleasure.
