Charles Webster Leadbeater (1854 – 1934) was an influential member of the Theosophical Society, author on occult subjects and co-initiator with J. I. Wedgwood of the Liberal Catholic Church. Originally a priest of the Church of England, his interest in spiritualism caused him to end his affiliation with Anglicanism in favour of the Theosophical Society, where he became an associate of Annie Besant. He became a high-ranking officer of the society, but resigned in 1906 amid a scandal involving accusations of pederasty. After Annie Besant became President of the Society, he was readmitted. Leadbeater went on to write over 69 books and pamphlets as well as maintain regular speaking engagements. His efforts on behalf of the society assured his status as one of its leading members until his death in 1934.
In the East the existence of the invisible helpers has always been recognized, though the names given and the characteristics attributed to them naturally vary in different countries; and even in Europe we have had the old Greek stories of the constant interference of the gods in human affairs, and the Roman legend that Castor and Pollux led the legions of the infant republic in the battle of Lake Regillus. Nor did such a conception die out when the classical period ended, for these stories have their legitimate successors in mediaeval tales of saints who appeared at critical moments and turned the fortune of war in favour of the Christian hosts, or of guardian angels who sometimes stepped in and saved a pious traveller from what would otherwise have been certain destruction.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. Have you ever felt a presence, a guiding hand, in moments of need? This book delves into the age-old belief in invisible helpers, offering compelling accounts of their intervention in human lives. Throughout history, across cultures, stories abound of benevolent forces offering protection and guidance. The author explores these narratives, not as mere folklore, but as glimpses into a hidden reality. From near-death experiences to inexplicable rescues, the book presents a collection of modern-day encounters with these unseen beings. But who are these helpers? The author sheds light on the different types of entities that may be offering assistance, from nature spirits to those who have passed on. The book also addresses the ethical considerations of such interventions, exploring the delicate balance between free will and the universal law of karma. Ultimately, this book invites us to open our minds to the possibility of a world beyond our immediate perception, one where compassion and support are readily available. It reminds us that we are not alone in our struggles, and that even in the darkest moments, a helping hand may be closer than we think.
