Beskrivelse
Among the vast number of books on occult subjects, THOUGHT FORMS stands out as a true, timeless classic. Originally published in 1905 by esteemed founding members of the Theosophical Society, Annie Besant and Charles W. Leadbeater, this copiously illustrated book describes the fascinating subject of clairvoyant vision. It explores how psychic individuals can see the auras of thoughts, emotions, events, and even music. The book begins with a revealing chart detailing the emotional and spiritual significance of twenty-five colors. Each color pattern is attributed with conveying a specific meaning, such as high spirituality or fear. The authors describe various mental states, including devotion, intellect, anger, sympathy, and greed. Furthermore, they include visual representations of musical compositions by such renowned composers as Mendelssohn, Gounod, and Wagner. Notably, the Theosophical teachings expounded in THOUGHT FORMS had a profound impact on early twentieth-century modernist artists such as Kandinsky, af Klint, Mondrian, and Malevich. These artists, along with numerous abstract painters and sculptors, drew inspiration from the concepts elucidated in this seminal work. This special Riverflow Heritage Classic edition includes an addendum with commentary and beautiful, transcendental artwork by acclaimed artist James Bennett. THOUGHT FORMS is a valuable resource for art historians and contemporary artists alike, providing a rich tapestry of inspiration on harnessing the expressive power of visual elements to communicate profound ideas and sentiments.
