Secret Doctrine References, vol. 2

By David Reigle on June 30, 2016 at 9:57 pm

A previous post, of Jan. 24, 2016 (http://prajnaquest.fr/blog/secret-doctrine-references/), called attention to an extensive listing of Secret Doctrine references for volume 1 given on the website of the Theosophical Society, Pasadena, or Theosophical University Press, and an extensive supplement to this listing prepared by William (Bill) Savage. Recently the references for volume 2 became available on the website of the Theosophical Society, Pasadena, or Theosophical University Press: http://www.theosociety.org/pasadena/sdrefs/sdrefs-hp.htm. So we now have the references for both volumes of The Secret Doctrine. This is an extremely valuable research tool. For me it is indispensable. It is necessary today to be able to sort out what Blavatsky drew from then published sources to annotate The Secret Doctrine, and what is original material from her unpublished sources. I am very grateful to all involved in the preparation of this listing of Secret Doctrine references.

    In addition to the Secret Doctrine References, vol. 1-2, James and Ina Belderis, along with other collaborators, have also updated the “Bibliography to the References” from 2013 to 2016, at: http://www.theosociety.org/pasadena/sdrefs/sdrefs-hp.htm

    I should add, then, full credit due to all the capable researchers at the Pasadena T.S. I am deeply appreciative.

    Sorry my post was a bit misleading. The vol. 2 references that are now done and available are by the Theosophical Society, Pasadena, or Theosophical University Press. The supplemental vol. 2 references by Mr. Savage are still coming.

    David, thanks very much for letting us know about the posting of the S.D. vol. 2 References, as researched and input by Mr. Savage. All this work for both volumes is immensely valuable and I am happy he dedicated his time towards putting it together. I know I will be using it for many years to come.
