“The purpose of Theosophy is not to be able to say things you cannot know; rather, it is to know things you cannot say.”—General Theosophy

I read with interest the recent announcement of New Direction etc. and noticed that the word theosophy was not capitalized.  I thought, therefore, that this might be a good time to share part of a larger work-in-progress of mine which gives the special epistemological reason that I prefer to keep it capitalized.  Best wishes to all--R.

Let me tell you about…

"It is easy to run around asking profound questions about life; the harder thing is to remain still while listening for the answers.”—General Theosophy

“Rebirth and the Lessons of Life:  If you don’t need to run, just walk; if you don’t need to walk, just stand; if you don’t need to stand, just sit; if you don’t need to sit, just lie down; if you don’t need to lie down, just get up and start running.”—General Theosophy

“The Pretender’s Prayer:  ‘Let me speak with the unchallengeable authority of someone who appears to know because of special communion with Someone who has special communion with Someone who has. . . .’”—General Theosophy

“The strictest Theosophy may regard any specific belief as just the premature corpse of a general Spiritual inkling.”—General Theosophy

“Another modern difference between a Theosophist and a Theosopher may be that the former has found something to believe in while the latter has found something to continue searching for.”—General Theosophy

The Psychological Key to Theosophy may suggest reversing some common proverbs:

He/She who DOES NOT hesitate is lost.

The Devil finds work for BUSY hands.…
