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.

“Boundless, infinite, and unconditioned…”

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.

“Voluntary victim of an illusionary God…”

DAILY THEOSOPHY QUOTES Tuesday 18th February 2014 “I will point out the greatest, the chief cause of nearly two thirds of the evils that pursue humanity ever since that cause became a power. It is religion under whatever form and in whatsoever nation. It is the sacerdotal caste, the priesthood and the churches; it is in those illusions that man looks upon as sacred, that … Continue reading “Voluntary victim of an illusionary God…”

“The mysterious link between Mind and Matter…”

DAILY THEOSOPHY QUOTES Monday 17th February 2014 “Just as pre-Cosmic Ideation is the root of all individual consciousness, so pre-Cosmic Substance is the substratum of matter in the various grades of its differentiation. “Hence it will be apparent that the contrast of these two aspects of the Absolute is essential to the existence of the “Manifested Universe.” Apart from Cosmic Substance, Cosmic Ideation could not … Continue reading “The mysterious link between Mind and Matter…”
