ELEVEN MEN embarked upon a journey in 1894 with one objective: ...to find the great spiritual teachers of the Far East and witness their uncommon abilities.Since these Masters were scattered over a wide territory that covered a large portion of India, Tibet, China, and Persia, they knew it could take years of searching many secluded villages and hidden mountain communes. Planning each step of the journey became a challenge knowing that countless miles of rugged terrain separated the remote and isolate locations that were imperative to the exploration. Even though they could plot their route on a map and see where they were headed, the destination deep within the souls of eleven scientifically trained men remained uncertain. Baird T. Spalding and the others were practical in nature and the thought of spiritual masters performing miracles seemed impossible. Despite these suspect thoughts, something compelled them to move onward.

On the spiritual path? This book is for you. The book chronicles a journey of enlightenment with the masters of the far East, it is immensely profound and details the path to awakening. (Kay Bartholomew) About the author: Baird Thomas Spalding (1872-1953) was an American spiritual writer, author of the spiritual book series: Life and Teaching of the Masters of the Far East. In 1924, Spalding published the first volume of Life and Teaching of the Masters of the Far East. It describes the travels to India and Tibet of a research party of eleven scientists in 1894. During their trip they claim to have made contact with "the Great Masters of the Himalayas", immortal beings with whom they lived and studied, gaining insight into their lives and spiritual message. This close contact enabled them to witness many of the spiritual principles evinced by these Great Masters translated into their everyday lives, which Spalding describes as acts that can be accomplished by anyone who comes to know his "TRUE" self. Such examples are walking on water, or manifesting bread to feed the hungry party. Despite most of the action taking place in India, the Great Masters make it clear that the greatest embodiment of the Enlightened state is that of the Christ - the discovery of man''s source of power within himself - that light of God - the Christ consciousness is that "Christ" state: The Masters accept that Buddha represents the Way to Enlightenment, but they clearly set forth that the Christ Consciousness is Enlightenment, or a state of consciousness for which we are all seeking - the Christ light of every individual; therefore, the light of every child born into the world. Spalding published three additional volumes before his death in 1953. Volumes 5 and 6 were published by DeVorss & Co posthumously from various articles that Spalding had written. Spalding''s books have remained in print since his death and his stories have helped to popularize the concept of Ascended Masters which became a common meme in New Age and alternative religious movements during the later twentieth century. During the 1920s, Spalding was a personal acquaintance of Guy Ballard, also a mining engineer and founder of the I AM activity. Similar themes to Spalding can be seen in Ascended Master groups such as the Church Universal and Triumphant and the writings of Elizabeth Clare Prophet. Spalding is named as an influence in the writings of New Age figures such as JZ Knight, Paul Baumann of the Methernitha sect and Father Divine. The growth of the New Age movement during the 1970s resulted in a renewal of interest in Spalding, and several New Age figures have claimed tenuous connections to him after his death. American mystic Thane of Hawaii, founder of the Prosperos group, claimed in 1974 to have ghost-written several of Spalding''s later books and accompanied him on his 1935 India tour. (wikipedia.org)

Hành trình về phương Đông kể về những trải nghiệm của một đoàn khoa học gồm các chuyên gia hàng đầu của Hội Khoa Học Hoàng Gia Anh được cử sang Ấn Độ nghiên cứu về huyền học và những khả năng siêu nhiên của con người. Suốt hai năm trời rong ruổi khắp các đền chùa Ấn Độ, chúng kiến nhiều pháp luật, nhiều cảnh mê tín dị đoan, thậm chí lừa đảo...của nhiều pháp sư, đạo sĩ...họ được tiếp xúc với những vị thế, họ được chứng kiến, trải nghiệm, hiểu biết sâu sắc về các khoa học cổ xưa và bí truyền của văn hóa Ấn Độ như Yoga, thiền định, thuật chiêm duyên, nghiệp báo, luật nhân quả, cõi sống và cõi chết.... Đúng lúc một cuộc đối thoại cởi mở và chân thành đang sắp diễn ra với các đạo sĩ bậc thầy, thì đoàn nhận được tối hậu thư từ chính quyền Anh Quốc là phải ngừng ngay việc nghiên cứu, tức khắc hồi hương và bị buộc phải im lặng, không được phát ngôn về bất cứ điều gì mà họ đã chứng nghiệm. Sau cùng ba nhà khoa học trong đoàn đã chấp nhận bỏ lại tất cả sau lưng, ở lại Ấn Độ tiếp tục nghiên cứu và cuối cùng trở thành tu sĩ. Trong số đó có giáo sư Spalding - tác giả hồi ký đặc biệt này.

"Life and Teaching of the Masters of the Far East" by Baird T. Spalding is a six-volume series first published in 1924. The work claims to document Spalding''s travels with a group of scientists through the Himalayan region in the late 19th century, where they encountered enlightened masters who demonstrated profound spiritual abilities. The series blends mystical teachings, spiritual philosophy, and accounts of miraculous events, presenting the masters as examples of humanity''s potential to embody divine consciousness. The series is centered on the spiritual insights and abilities of the "Masters," individuals said to have achieved higher states of consciousness and mastery over physical reality. It describes their teachings on universal laws, the nature of divinity, and the potential for humans to transcend limitations through understanding and aligning with spiritual truths.

“La Vida de los Maestros” es un libro curioso. Mitad crónica de un viaje y mitad narración de un despertar espiritual, este título recoge, de su puño y letra, la experiencia vivida por Baird T. Spalding y un grupo de exploradores en su travesía por los vastos paisajes de Nepal, India, China y Persia en busca de las huellas de los grandes maestros de la sabiduría oriental. La naturaleza pragmática y científica de estos hombres los impulsó a emprender un viaje para encontrar evidencias irrefutables que explicaran fenómenos imposibles y poderes milagrosos, pero el verdadero propósito de su aventura sería revelado eventualmente, cambiando sus vidas para siempre. La transformación espiritual es un camino diferente para todos, definido por lo que somos y por lo que en el fondo queremos ser, y “La Vida de los Maestros” nos regala un vistazo a ese proceso, para abrir nuestra alma al cambio y al bienestar. Como diría el propio Spalding en vida: “Que cada cual tome de mi libro aquello que es bueno para él y crea lo que sea apropiado a su grado de evolución”.

"Baird Spalding played a ground-breaking role when he introduced the Western world to the wonders of a Far East expedition in 1894. The knowledge of "Masters" assisting and guiding humanity in the classic book LIFE AND TEACHING OF THE MASTERS OF THE FAR EAST became legend in metaphysical circles during the first half of the 20th century and continues today as a source of spiritual enlightenment. Originally published as 3 separate volumes, DeVorss Publications is proud to release these historic books in one edition titled THE JOURNEY. It is within these 3 volumes that Spalding details an expedition that lasted 3 years and covered the mountainous landscape of Nepal and India near the close of the 19th century. "There is no question, but these people have brought the Light through the long ages and they prove by their daily life and works that this Light does exist just as it did thousands of years ago." -- Baird T. Spalding"--

De Meesters van het Verre Oosten is nu compleet! Een van de meest spraakmakende spirituele boeken uit de 20e eeuw, een uniek document over de tijdloze wijsheid van de Meesters van de Himalaya. ''De meesters van het Verre Oosten'' van Baird T. Spalding uit 1924 geldt nog altijd als een van de meest spraakmakende boeken van onze tijd. Tijdens een expeditie in de Himalaya, eind 19e eeuw, ontmoeten de schrijver en zijn metgezellen de Meesters van de Himalaya. Deze onsterfelijke wezens verrichten wonderbaarlijke daden en slaan een brug tussen het christendom en het boeddhisme. Volgens hun filosofie vertegenwoordigt Boeddha de weg naar verlichting, terwijl de figuur van Jezus Christus de verlichting zelf belichaamt. Het boek leest als een spannende roman en bevat tegelijkertijd duidelijke spirituele boodschappen. Deze editie is aangevuld met deel 6, het laatste deel dat ruim 45 jaar na de dood van Spalding werd gepubliceerd en is samengesteld uit ongepubliceerd materiaal dat zijn redacteur in 10 dozen verstopt vond.
