The Shadow of the Astral - A Mystic Narrative #249882

The Theme is, therefore, the greatest that can eu gage the attention of human thought — the Pathway through which the soul climbs from the low grounds of material ideas and ideals upward to the conscious recognition of those Great Spiritual Realities of life which are altogether unknown to the masses of earth's denizens. While the numerous characters in the story all stand out distinct and clear in their personalities, those of Herminio, the Anchorite, and Anthony, the Truth Seeker, are sketched with masterly hand, and hold the center of the stage throughout the narrative and focalize the interest of the reader.
