The secret doctrine; the synthesis of science, religion and philosophy
The Secret Doctrine by H. P. Blavatsky, published in London in 1893 by the Theosophical Publishing Society, is a work of Theosophy that sets out a synthesis of science, religion and philosophy for a general readership of seekers. Its pictures are plain line diagrams of stacked horizontal tiers, concentric ovals and a fan of radiating bands labelled with Sanskrit terms, offering a designer a clear model for layered, schematic charts and labelled cosmic-structure graphics.
