'''Kiu-ti or Khiu-ti'''. Generic title of a Tibetan series of occult works, well known even exoterically and containing profound esoteric teachings under the form of allegory and symbolism. One of the first works of the Kiu-ti series is the Book of Dzyan (Tibetan or Mongolian way of pronouncing the Sanskrit word Dhyâna), especially selected by H. P. B. to write from because it contains the original archaic teachings, admittedly covered up in the Kiu-ti scriptures with a great deal of extraneous material. The real occult part of the Book of Dzyan is one of the first of the Kiu-ti volumes and deals mainly with cosmogony. | |||
