BALANCING THE PAIRS OF OPPOSITES; The RAYS and EDUCATION
“A reading of the book Balancing the Opposites by Kurt Abraham makes one whisper: Here is richness. This book is to be read several times; only then can one gain from the immense insights so casually granted by Kurt Abraham in paragraph after paragraph.”
~Rusi Daruwala, editor Mandala, published in Mumbai, India
“Balancing Opposites is another sensitively written series of essays by Mr. Abraham, expanding upon the development of the science of esoteric psychology, including the soul, the seven rays, esoteric astrology, and individual ray analysis. There is also a section which deals with various suggestions given by Alice Bailey for changes in the educational system and our need for a deeper understanding of children. Instrumental in the coming changes will be the adaptation of the teachings on the seven rays as a tool to more deeply appreciate the needs of children.”
~The Beacon
