The Johnston's article The Books of Hidden Wisdom, which we propose to our readers today, was published in October 1895 on The Irish Theosophist. «So far the Gospels. Then the Upanishads.

What is most potent is a high, lonely intuition that wraps us out of ourselves, and calls us away into the great silent depths of being; where the wide waters of life roll for ever; where the fiery breaths of endlessness pour in upon us, and thrill us with a sense of new mightiness, pouring into us a power as of vast antiquity that is still for ever young with the youth of the immortals».
