James George Roche Forlong (1824-1904) joined the Indian Army in 1843. He was appointed as an Engineer in the army based in Myamar in 1852. In the years 1858-9 he travelled widely in Egypt, Palestine, Syria, Turkey, Greece, Italy, and Spain. Subsequently, his engineering skills continued to take him to numerous other locations. He later retired and began writing on comparative religions. "Rivers of Life" is his major work.…

First edition of this ambitious work of comparative religion, delineating the continuities between world cultures throughout human history. Among the civilizations and religions it covers are the Babylonians, Zoroastrians, Ancient Greeks and Romans, Hindus, Buddhists, and cultures from across Scandinavia, Polynesia, and Africa. The publication was issued to subscribers only. An engineer by training, Forlong's (1824-1904) interest in world religions stemmed from his time in Asia serving as a Major General in the Indian Army. He categorized all religions into six types of worship: tree, phallic, serpent, fire, sun, and ancestor. These types formed "streams" flowing throughout human culture, with their progression and interactions here visualized in the large accompanying chart. Forlong's interpretations and his abandonment of Christianity were scandalous to many, particularly his emphasis on the sexual nature of religious symbolism, but his work was influential among such as Helena Blavatsky and Aleister Crowley, who described it as "an invaluable textbook of old systems of initiation" (Crowley, p. 211).
