Short spiritual quotes

H.P.Blavatsky in “Our
Cycle and the Next”. For real Theosophy is Altruism, and we cannot
repeat it too often. It is brotherly love, mutual help,
unswerving devotion to Truth. If once men do but realize that
in these alone can true happiness be found, and never in wealth,
possessions, or any selfish gratification, then the ...

W.Q. Judge quote, The
Theosophical Forum of New York, December 1892, p. 3) “Theosophy holds

the past 7 (!) years is becoming too labor intensive. It no longer fits

Written by Anonymous on Jun
30, 2010 09:33 am
One of my Dutch readers
wondered after reading my piece about symbols, about the meaning of the
Christian Cross according to H.P. Blavatsky. I thought I’d look it up.
The closest I could find on the topic was Blavatsky on Crucifixion. She
says there that: The cross itself, to which the whole man was attached,

World Congress: Unofficial powwow about the future of the Theosophical Society
idea to set a date / time on our powwow about the future of the TS.
There are, so the grapevine tells me, about 400 people coming to the

had workshops that had 80+ people in ...
The Wisdom of Patanjali’s Yoga Sutras: A New Translation and Guide by Ravi Ravindra
thousand year old spiritual classic. In India every spiritual teacher
of any note has written a commentary on it. Ravi Ravindra is the latest

Krishnamurti doesn’t ...

The Unfinished Autobiography by Alice A. Bailey
Bailey’s work, nor into that of ‘The Tibetan’, but this autobiography
is great. Funny, full of self knowledge and simply fascinating from the
point of view of esoteric history. Alice Bailey was born and raised in
England in 1880. She lived through both world wars and lived the
transition from ...
William Quan Judge today
goes on writing about their efforts to get the TS Adyar to recognize
Judge. I’m pleasantly surprised at the calm tone of their last post.
They report that the German TS website mentions Judge as one of 5
theosophists who get a biography on there. I have to agree that it’s a
