JOURNAL ARTICLES

        Mr. Hodson wrote close to two hundred articles for various journals such as The Theosophist, Theosophy in New Zealand etc. Some of these have been incorporated into the contents of certain of his books, others stand alone as fascinating glimpses of a seer in his travels around the world e.g. Impressions of the Giant Sequoias World Theosophy, June 1932, Occult Research into Early American Inhabitants, The Theosophist, January 1932, Clairvoyant Observation of the Ceremonial Magic of the Aztecs, Theosophy in New Zealand, February 1957, An African Witch-Doctor, Theosophy in New Zealand, December 1955.

AUDIO-CASSETTE TAPES BY GEOFFREY HODSON

        During his lifetime Mr. Frank Wilson of The Theosophical Society in Auckland, New Zealand made  a comprehensive collection of audio-cassette recordings of Mr. Hodson’s lectures including talking books of The Pathway to Perfection, The Supreme Splendour and The Yoga of Light.  It is understood that this collection has been sent from the New Zealand Section to The American Section of  The Theosophical Society, apparently for archival purposes. In addition, several National Sections of The Theosophical Society such as The Australian Section keep substantial numbers of Mr. Hodson's talks in their audio-tape libraries. If  you have difficulty locating this material please contact me at:

                                                                aspects@iinet.net.au

        Mr. Hodson's lectures were delivered in a more formal style than the conversational manner which has come into vogue of  recent times. He studied the speeches of Sir Winston Churchill and a certain similarity can be detected in his presentation. This was not only for the sake of dramatic impact, but also because in many places that he visited  facilities were not available for amplification, and he felt it to be a courtesy that his audience should be able to hear him properly. For the student of spiritual matters the power, compassion and sincerity in Mr. Hodson's voice supports the belief (not confirmed until after his death) that he was actually an advanced Initiate and therefore also spoke to some extent on behalf  of  The Inner Government of the World as one of their human mouthpieces to humanity .
