The Mystic Test Book Of The Hindu Occult Ghambers

Dr. L. W. De Laurence’s book presents itself as an esoteric manual drawing on Indian religious and occult traditions, though such works often reflect Western interpretations of Hindu and tantric ideas. Historically, it is part of the popular occult publishing of the early twentieth century, and readers will encounter ritual instructions, symbols, and tests of hidden knowledge.

L. W. de Laurence was an early twentieth-century American publisher and promoter of occult, esoteric, and practical-metaphysical texts. He is chiefly remembered for reprinting and disseminating a wide range of magical, ceremonial, and occult works for the English-speaking market.
