Dharma

Annie Besant’s discussion of dharma explains duty, right conduct, and the spiritual law that orders life within Indian and Theosophical thought. Historically significant as part of Besant’s effort to interpret Eastern religious concepts for a modern audience, the book offers ethical reflection and guidance on living in harmony with spiritual principles.

Annie Besant was a prominent theosophist, socialist, and author whose later life was deeply devoted to esoteric and religious reform. She played a major role in Theosophical literature and popularized ideas drawn from Hinduism, occultism, and comparative religion, while also writing extensively on spirituality and social questions.
