One of the primal mysteries with which man has occupied himself throughout the ages is that of his origin. Science has brought forward many fascinating facts and theories but these are frequently modified or changed with new discoveries. Philosophies and religions have attempted explanations, but often the language has been so abstruse or the story so veiled in allegory and symbol that average person is bewildered. The questions remain: Did we exist in some form before we became human? How did we reach the human state? How did the special spark of intelligence which made us into self-conscious beings come into existence? And whence did it come? When, in the dim evolutionary past, did humanity as we know it appear?
A major contribution toward an understanding of these questions was made by H. P. Blavatsky in her great work, The Secret Doctrine, but many students have felt the need for further explication of that profound text. To this task Geoffrey A. Barborka, the author of this book, has set himself. In an earlier work, The Divine Plan, he dealt
with the first part of The Secret Doctrine describing cosmogenesis. In The Peopling of the Earth he performs a similar service in elucidating the section on anthropogenesis.
