Elena Ivanovna Roerich (1879–1955). The Teachers of the East called her Urusvati (“the light of the morning dawn”) and the Mother of Agni Yoga—a moral and spiritual teaching that synthesizes the highest sacred wisdom and the best achievements of humanity. She was the first, under ordinary conditions, to undergo fiery transmutation, thereby laying the foundation for a new evolution of humankind.
In the series of books about Urusvati, this is the first volume. Here, Urusvati’s earthly, external biography is revealed: her acquaintance with the Great Teacher Moria, the path of ascent to the heights of Agni Yoga, yogic and fiery transmutation, the acceptance of the Teaching’s texts and their elucidation, and the laying of the foundations of a new spiritual movement.
