DESCRIPTION (From the back cover of the book)
In The Three Mountains, Samael Aun Weor explains all the stages of the Path of the Inner Self-Realization of the Being (the Esoteric or Initiatory Path), here divided into ‘three mountains’ or three great stages, which are: The First Mountain or Mountain of Initiation, the Second Mountain or Mountain of Resurrection and the Third Mountain or Mountain of Ascension, ending in the Absolute itself, our original abode.
All the different stages are explained in great detail. The author condenses in this book all his personal initiatory journey, embracing more than thirty years of experience, and beyond. It is for that reason that the book is full of esoteric experiences and anecdotes told in the first person, making this book one of the most autobiographical books he ever wrote.
In short, this book is a map, the Map of the Path, traced by the expert hand of one of the most outstanding, contemporary representatives of the Conscious Circle of Solar Humanity – its reading being therefore indispensable for anyone who seeks to orientate himself or herself in the Esoteric Path in a positive and practical way.
