The One Year Manual
Twelve Steps to Spiritual Enlightenment
Author: Israel Regardie
š About the Book
A classic guide to inner transformation and spiritual awareness, The One Year Manual is a step-by-step course designed to lead sincere seekers through twelve months of disciplined spiritual practice. Written by Israel Regardie, one of the most respected teachers of the Western esoteric tradition, this concise yet powerful manual bridges ancient mysticism with modern psychology.
Each month introduces a new exercise or meditation technique, building upon the last to gradually cultivate a deeper awareness of body, mind, and spirit. From the fundamentals of body relaxation and rhythmic breathing to advanced practices in concentration, willpower, mantra, and divine union, Regardieās system offers a complete framework for awakening consciousness and realizing the truth that All is God.
Originally published as Twelve Steps to Spiritual Enlightenment, this revised edition reflects Regardieās lifelong dedication to making the esoteric both accessible and practical for modern readers seeking genuine spiritual growth.

š About the Author
Israel Regardie (1907ā1985) was an influential teacher, writer, and practitioner of the Western Mystery Tradition. A former secretary to Aleister Crowley, Regardie devoted his life to preserving and clarifying occult knowledge for future generations. His worksāspanning Hermeticism, psychology, and magicāhelped integrate spiritual practice with modern self-development, emphasizing healing, unity, and personal transformation.
āļø How is it similar to the 12 Steps of Alcoholics Anonymous? Different Origins and Intentions
- Israel Regardieās The One Year Manual (also known as Twelve Steps to Spiritual Enlightenment) uses ātwelve stepsā simply as a framework for twelve monthly practices ā each one focusing on a specific area of spiritual discipline (breathwork, concentration, will, meditation, mantra, etc.).
- His use of āstepsā is metaphorical ā twelve sequential spiritual exercises designed to lead to enlightenment.
- Itās rooted in Western esotericism and Hermetic mysticism, not in recovery or addiction contexts.
- The 12 Steps of Alcoholics Anonymous, by contrast, are a spiritual program for recovery from addiction.
- These steps emphasize surrender to a Higher Power, moral inventory, amends, and service.
- Their purpose is emotional, moral, and spiritual healing ā restoring integrity and connection with self, others, and God (or a Higher Power of oneās understanding).
šæ Where They Overlap
There are some thematic parallels, even though they arose independently:
- Both are spiritual paths based on practice and humility rather than intellect alone.
- Both lead toward self-awareness, surrender, and union with a higher truth.
- Each step or phase in both systems builds gradually on the previous one, emphasizing discipline and transformation.
- Both encourage daily application ā not just theoretical learning.
š Key Distinction
- In The One Year Manual, the twelve steps are tools to train the mind and spirit toward mystical realization ā more akin to a structured meditation course.
- In AA, the Twelve Steps are tools to transform the heart and behavior for recovery from addiction and spiritual illness.
