DAILY THEOSOPHY QUOTES Tuesday 27th January 2015 “To become a Buddha one has to break through the bondage of sense and personality; to acquire a complete perception of the REAL SELF and learn not to separate it from all other selves; to learn by experience the utter unreality of all phenomena of the visible Kosmos foremost of all; to reach a complete detachment from all that … Continue reading “To become a Buddha…”
DAILY THEOSOPHY QUOTES Wednesday 21st January 2015 “We distinguish between the simple fact of self-consciousness, the simple feeling that “I am I,” and the complex thought that “I am Mr. Smith” or “Mrs. Brown.” Believing as we do in a series of births for the same Ego, or re-incarnation, this distinction is the fundamental pivot of the whole idea. You see “Mr. Smith” really means a … Continue reading “The feeling of Egoity…”
DAILY THEOSOPHY QUOTES Monday 19th January 2015 “Capricornus (Lat.). The 10th sign of the Zodiac (Makara in Sanskrit), considered, on account of its hidden meaning, the most important among the constellations of the mysterious Zodiac.

DAILY THEOSOPHY QUOTES Friday 16th January 2015 “En-Soph, the unrevealed forever, who is boundless and unconditioned, cannot create, and therefore it seems to us a great error to attribute to him a “creative thought,” as is commonly done by the interpreters. In every cosmogony this supreme Essence is passive; if boundless, infinite, and unconditioned, it can have no thought nor idea. It acts not as … Continue reading “Boundless, infinite, and unconditioned…”
DAILY THEOSOPHY QUOTES Wednesday 14th January 2015 “The God of modern science and philosophy hovers between the unknown and the “unknowable.” One great service science has already rendered to the cause of Truth, viz., it has ushered in the reign of Law in the domain of belief and knowledge.

DAILY THEOSOPHY QUOTES Tuesday 13th January 2015 “And now a last and parting word.

DAILY THEOSOPHY QUOTES Friday 9th January 2015 “Your position as the fore-runners of the sixth sub-race of the fifth root-race has its own special perils as well as its special advantages. Psychism, with all its allurements and all its dangers, is necessarily developing among you, and you must beware lest the Psychic outruns the Manasic and Spiritual development.

DAILY THEOSOPHY QUOTES Friday 28th February 2014 “One feels a serious doubt whether, with all its intellectual acuteness, our age is destined to discover in each western nation even one solitary uninitiated scholar or philosopher capable of fully comprehending the spirit of archaic philosophy.
