There is also a list of General Secretaries and representatives attending

the convention. The attendance this year is much better than last year

(especially from the West) and we will…

The Wisdom in Toons

First, an apologie if my english is not so correct-spelled as i wanted to. Thank God for the word-spelling editor.

Secound, let's get into matter:

You must have noticed by now that Children stories have a lot of occult meaning. As I am going to re-write this same article to Spanish-versed readers later, i'll try to be brief in this subject, and extend, progressively, in…

A view has been widely circulated that the early Christians, including Church Fathers, believed in reincarnation. I have read claims to the effect that Origen taught reincarnation, and even that Jerome upheld the doctrine. Often these claims (on the internet) are not sourced at all. Sometimes they…

The 135th International Convention at Adyar will commence tomorrow. A

visit to the Adyar website gave me a surprise. Daily Bulletins in pdf 



format for each day is indicated. So you can visit each day and see the

bulletin and know the highlights of the day. This is a small step in 

providing info on the happenings on a daily basis. I hope, next year,

Adyar resorts to live streaming of the programs, which will bring 



membership in closer contact…

Traditionally, in print media, an index is compiled and put at the end of the publication. Modern digitization technology has enabled every word in the pdf file to be indexed. This enables one to search for a word or words in the entire file, which is very powerful and handy for the reader.

All the Theosophist and Lucifer files in this site are searchable pdf files. The credit goes to Marc who took care of the processing after scanned file was available.

Use…

Theosophical disconnect



Frequently one finds a disconnect between what theosophists talk about and act. This is all the more so when you deal with ‘organizational’ theosophists.



The scanning and uploading of early issues of Theosophist on this site is an  invaluable resource…

I've been neglecting you all. I'm sorry - the last months of the year are the busiest, for my online publishing work (which pays my bills). Here's what I've written about the present and future of the Theosophical Society:

“Your body is neither you nor your enemy; it is just a war zone.”—General Theosophy

The volumes scanned and made available due to the labors of dedicated theosophists contain very valuable information which many will find it interesting and useful. But for Internet, it would have been almost inaccessible for ordinary readers. Now the task is for the masses to get to know about it. Most of us use search engines to find information and hence I expect most readers will come to the site from searches. In the meanwhile, let each one of us spread the word.

“What you can put into words is what you can doubt.”—General Theosophy

As usual, the International Convention will start on December 26, 2010 in

Adyar. Here is the tentative program I found on Adyar Website. What is

significant is that the General Council Meeting schedule is also included.

If anyone with a computer is attending the Convention, it would be very

informative if a daily - one…

“The work of a modern Theosopher includes lengthening the interval between encountering an ancient teaching and the knees hitting the floor.”—General Theosophy

“If you are looking for the real secrets, do not look where the largest crowd has gathered.”—General Theosophy

Katinka, in her blog, brought attention to the two theosophical books published in 2010; one by Joy Mills on ML and the other SD Commentaries.



It is a pity that neither is cheap and especially the Commentaries are very pricey and out of reach of most middle class theosophists especially in the third world.



The decision makers could have simply made an electronic edition available on Internet. All books, these days are first created in electronic media and then only it is…

2010 has proven itself an interesting year when it comes to new literature for the classic theosophy theosophist - aka the Blavatsky and Mahatmas fan.

First we had Reflections on an Ageless Wisdom, by Joy Mills - which is an excellent commentary on the Chronological Mahatma letters.

And now we have…
