I would like to say that the second book I ever
read on Theosophy was C.W. Leadbeater's A TEXTBOOK
OF THEOSOPHY.

I am glad that I read this book. It awakened in
me an interest to know more about Theosophy. I can
still remember the "excitement" I experienced as
I read Mr. Leadbeater's book. His book prompted me
to dig deeper....

And it seems to me that any serious student of
Theosophy should read and study at least some of
his major works.

Having said that, there are a good number of
differences between Leadbeater's teachings and
those of Blavatsky and the Mahatmas (as found
in the Mahatma Letters). I think one of the
most glaring examples is the one illustrated
in detail at:
