"When or how he became a devotee of Theosophy is not recorded. From 1908 until his death, he was a constant contributor of essays to The Theosophist, The Messenger, and Reincarnation. These essays are collected into two volumes, The Cultural System (1925) and The Future Way (1928). He speaks of them as "a group of essays upon various topics of the divine wisdom. " In 1925, he published Voyages, a volume of essays concerning which in the "Foreword" he says: "The musings joined together here were written down, for the most part, on a pilgrimage in nineteen hundred and thirteen, to shrines and holy spots in Europe and Asia. "

"His writings are graceful in style, poetic, deeply religious, widely tolerant. Coincident with the growth of his interest in Theosophy and probably as a result thereof, his enthusiasm for professional work and his prestige in the field of surgery waned."

Hard to find in this original edition -- a must-own for students of Theosophy, or collectors of scarce occult books!
