This book is a must-read for anyone interested in the mysteries of the human condition and the nature of reality itself.1932. In this work can be found gems of thought in occult anatomy by Hall, the American philosopher. In over a period of 20 years of dynamic public activity, Hall has steadfastly sought recognition of the belief that world civilization can only be perfected when human beings meet on a common ground of intelligence, cooperation and worthy purpose. In this volume he asserts that science has not been fair, just, nor equitable in its examination of metaphysics. It has not been scientific in its examinations. It has reasoned from prejudices rather than from available data. Mysticism is not a vagary; it is a distinct department of learning which, if given proper consideration and opportunity, could make a definite contribution to normalcy and well-being. And so, a book on occult anatomy. Convinced of immortality, the sages of antiquity viewed the human body as not the man but as the house of the man. The science of the soul occupied first place. The masters of three Academies often pointed out some analogy in human organ or function in justifying an abstract conclusion. Previously, the anatomy of philosophers had existed in a fragmentary state. Now they are gathered and reduced to order brilliant gems of thought on an engrossing theme, the mystical lore of the human body.
