__________
Come hither, you that walk along the way;
See how the pilgrims fare that go astray:
They catched are in an entangling net,
‘Cause they good counsel lightly did forget:
‘Tis true they rescued were, but yet you see,
They’re scourged to boot. Let this your caution be.
—John Bunyan, The Pilgrim’s Progress

Study Guide for The Voice of the Silence
WITH the writing of her masterworks completed, H. P. Blavatsky turned her attention more particularly to the needs of those who were seriously desirous of serving the cause of human betterment. The result was The Voice of the Silence, a spiritual classic of incomparable beauty and power. Translating from memory some of the ancient maxims from the Book of the Golden Precepts—itself drawn from the same archaic source as the Stanzas of Dzyan on which The Secret Doctrine is based—the author clarifies the essential difference between the two paths of spiritual attainment: the one pursued by those seeking truth for their own enlightenment; the other followed by those of every age and land whose sole aspiration for self-knowledge is prompted by compassionate concern for the well-being of all mankind.
