Mystic Christianity is a surprising and fresh look at a very familiar subject - the life and teaching of Christ. Written over 100 years ago by Yogi Ramacharaka, the book examines the basic tenets of the Christian narrative through the lens of Eastern spirituality. It takes the form of twelve lessons which work chronologically through the life of Jesus, including a period in which he is rumored to have traveled to India and Persia, and then examines his credo in detail, paying particular attention to the private teachings given to Jesus' closest disciples. Ramacharaka makes a connection between these teachings and other mystical traditions which were prevalent at the time. Yogi Ramacharaka is the pen name of William Walker Atkinson, an early-20th Century American writer who helped to promote Asian philosophy and culture in the West.

Autorenporträt
William Walker Atkinson (December 5, 1862 - November 22, 1932) was an attorney, merchant, publisher, and author, as well as an occultist and an American pioneer of the New Thought movement. He is the author of the pseudonymous works attributed to Theron Q. Dumont and Yogi Ramacharaka.[1] He wrote an estimated 100 books, all in the last 30 years of his life. He was mentioned in past editions of Who's Who in America, in Religious Leaders of America, and in several[ similar publications. His works have remained in print more or less continuously since 1900. William Walker Atkinson was born in Baltimore, Maryland on December 5, 1862,[4] to Emma and William Atkinson. He began his working life as a grocer at 15 years old, probably helping his father. He married Margret Foster Black of Beverly, New Jersey, in October 1889, and they had two children. Their first child probably died young. The second later married and had two daughters. Atkinson pursued a business career from 1882 onwards and in 1894 he was admitted as an attorney to the Bar of Pennsylvania. While he gained much material success in his profession as a lawyer, the stress and over-strain eventually took its toll, and during this time he experienced a complete physical and mental breakdown, and financial disaster. He looked for healing and in the late 1880s he found it with New Thought, later attributing the restoration of his health, mental vigor and material prosperity to the application of the principles of New Thought.
