Hey,
I learned of this one via amazon because it cites me on Cayce, but
it turns out to have much more about HPB, devoting 16 pages to
the "Theosophical Lemuria." Final para of that section:
Theosophy's innovation lay in bringing occult technologies of
clairvoyance and communication with other-worldly beings-- abilities
that were lost with the onset of disenchanted modernity-- to bear
upon the cosmic history of the vanished worlds of the earth's past,
a history that had hitherto been told only from incomplete and mute
material remains. That this innovation was to prove very productive
is clear when we turn to the other twentieth century adventures of
Lemuria in the occult imaginary.(p. 71)
