“Theosophy is a scientific religion and a religious science…”

DAILY THEOSOPHY QUOTES Friday 23rd January 2015 “Theosophy is that ocean of knowledge which spreads from shore to shore of the evolution of sentient beings; unfathomable in its deepest parts, it gives the greatest minds their fullest scope, yet, shallow enough at its shores, it will not overwhelm the understanding of a child. It is wisdom about God for those who believe that he is all … Continue reading “Theosophy is a scientific religion and a religious science…”

“These two doctrines are what the world most needs…”

DAILY THEOSOPHY QUOTES Tuesday 20th January 2015 “While the word “reincarnation” is in very general use these days, having filtered into the public mind from Theosophic teachings, there still exists a lamentable ignorance in regard to its scope and meaning. A very common idea is that the “personality” reincarnates, but there could hardly be a more unphilosophical, illogical and obviously incorrect one. Some spiritualists, dogmatic Christians, … Continue reading “These two doctrines are what the world most needs…”

DAILY THEOSOPHY QUOTES Sunday 18th January 2015 “The very best I can say to you is that, as you know, all our troubles in life arise from ourselves, no matter how much they may seem to come from the outside; we are all parts of the one great whole, and if you try to centre your mind upon that fact, and to remember that those things … Continue reading “All our troubles in life arise from ourselves…”

“Those who have trained themselves can use the astral form at will…”

DAILY THEOSOPHY QUOTES Thursday 15th January 2015 “In the ordinary man who has not been trained in practical occultism or who has not the faculty by birth, the astral body cannot go more than a few feet from the physical one. It is a part of that physical, it sustains it and is incorporated in it just as the fibres of the mango are all through … Continue reading “Those who have trained themselves can use the astral form at will…”

“The Adepts may be called rugged oaks that have no disguise…”

DAILY THEOSOPHY QUOTES Sunday 11th January 2015 “But the Sages we speak of, and their disciples, carry with them the indelible mark and speak the well-known words that show they are beings developed under laws, and not merely persons who, having undergone a childish ordeal, are possessed of a diploma. The Adepts may be called rugged oaks that have no disguise, while the undeveloped man dabbling … Continue reading “The Adepts may be called rugged oaks that have no disguise…”

“There is a bright side to life…”

DAILY THEOSOPHY QUOTES Sunday 23rd February 2014 “When one stops to think, to weigh, and to consider what is one’s duty, or which of many duties should be performed first, it is indeed perplexing and difficult to know what to do. But if you will do just what lies before you without thinking about all the other things, and without troubling your mind about all … Continue reading “There is a bright side to life…”

“Man is really a thinker and made of thought…”

DAILY THEOSOPHY QUOTES Wednesday 11th September 2013 “This coming into life over and over again cannot be avoided by the ordinary man because Lower Manas is still bound by Desire, which is the preponderating principle at the present period.

“The apes were produced by man himself…”

DAILY THEOSOPHY QUOTES Sunday 1st September 2013 “The burning question of the anthropoid apes as related to man is settled by the Masters of Wisdom, who say that instead of those being our progenitors they were produced by man himself. In one of the early periods of the globe the men of that time begot from large females of the animal kingdom the anthropoids, and … Continue reading “The apes were produced by man himself…”

DAILY THEOSOPHY QUOTES Monday 29th July 2013 “The universe evolves from the unknown, into which no man or mind, however high, can inquire, on seven planes or in seven ways or methods in all worlds, and this sevenfold differentiation causes all the worlds of the universe and the beings thereon to have a septenary constitution. As was taught of old, the little worlds and the … Continue reading “The divisions of the sevenfold universe…”

“The great law of life and progress…”

DAILY THEOSOPHY QUOTES Monday 8th July 2013 “Reincarnation being the great law of life and progress, it is interwoven with that of the cycles and karma. These three work together, and in practice it is almost impossible to disentangle reincarnation from cyclic law. Individuals and nations in definite streams return in regularly recurring periods to the earth, and thus bring back to the globe the … Continue reading “The great law of life and progress…”
