Download or read book Plutarch on boasted wisdom fortitude magnanimity and temperance written by Plutarch and published by Philaletheians UK. This book was released on 2018-01-03 with total page 15 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A satire on the boasted wisdom, fortitude, magnanimity, and temperance of man, in the form of a dialogue between Ulysses in the island of Circe, and Gryllus, whom she had changed into a swine, and who now prefers his swinish condition to a return to the human form; Ulysses asks Circe for permission to restore his companions to the human shape. Circe will grant the request if the men themselves desire it. Gryllus, one of them, is brought forward to answer in behalf of the entire company. He refuses, and gives his reasons. He says that by making him and his companions beasts, Circe has done them a great favour. Beasts have more fortitude than men; they fight in fair, open combat, without trick or artifice; they are no cowards, they never cry for mercy. Beasts are courageous and daring, even the females; while the courage of men is artificial, and women are timid. Beasts are more temperate and chaste then man; they indulge their appetites only in a natural way, and at the proper season. Beasts do not value silver or gold. They have no adventitious desire. Their senses are more accurate. Beasts are satisfied with one kind of food, and this procured without difficulty; they have nature for their teacher, and could teach men many useful lessons. Men are incontinent: they indulge unnatural and excessive appetites; and are never satisfied.

Download or read book Three cubits of the ear four of the stalk written by Helena Petrovna Blavatsky and published by Philaletheians UK. This book was released on 2018-01-30 with total page 24 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wheat is not a product of the Earth for it has never been found in the wild state. It was the first-born Lords of Wisdom, Regents over the seasons and cosmic cycles, who revealed to nascent mankind the arts of agriculture. Fruits and grain, unknown to Earth, were brought by divine men and women from other worlds, for the benefit of those they ruled. The humble wheat is pivotal to man’s Inner Principles and the Laws that govern the World of Being. Isis, the Virgin-Mother of Horus, was the first to reveal to mortals the mysteries of wheat and corn. And her priests placed the sacred wheat on the breast of their ven-erable defunct. The Wheat Fields of Egypt are the Elysian Fields of Greece and the Homeric Tartarus. Extra-terrestrial wheat is the link between the occult philosophy of the old Egyp-tians, and that now taught by the cis-Himalayan Adepts. Aaru is the subjective state of post-mortem existence, where the defunct’s soul receives wheat and corn, growing therein seven cubits high. What is meant by the three cubits of the ear and the four cubits of the stalk of the wheat that grows in the Fields of Aaru? The ear of three cubits is the immortal upper triad of man and aroma of Manas (Higher Ego), represented by the triangle. The four cubits is the mortal lower tetrad (stalk or straw), represented by the square. In Egyptian philosophy the Eyes of the Lord are interchangeable: the Sun is the eye of Osiris by day; and the Moon, the eye of Osiris by night. The Wheat Fields of Aaru are an allusion to Devachan. The wheat sown and reaped by the defunct during his life is his Karma.

Download or read book Archaic Theosophy is pre Buddhist Wisdom Religion written by William Quan Judge and published by Philaletheians UK. This book was released on 2021-08-07 with total page 33 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Theosophy is the Aletheia of Occult Science and the Religion of Reason. Prerequisites and qualifications and for aspirants. The fundamental propositions of the Secret Doctrine. First proposition — Cosmogenesis. Second proposition — Law governs Cosmos and Man. Third proposition — Anthropogenesis. “Spiritual” nature cannot be “cultivated.” A sincere lover of the race can accomplish more in three incarnations during Kali-Yuga, than he could in a much greater number in any other age. What is the “moment of choice”? The elementals are spirits of the four elements of the terrestrial world. Our Earth is densely populated by these mystifying centres of energy. By coalescing around our thoughts, and being coloured by them, they act as impartial agents of karma. Curses, like chickens, come home to roost. As universal law contains within itself the means for its own accomplishment, and the punishment for its violation, it requires no further authority to carry out its decrees. The origin of man, his “original sin,” and his destiny. The doctrine of reincarnation. The inner constitution of man. The real hell is life on earth. The bliss of “paradise” is a delusion of the lower self stemming from the “heresy of individuality,” which heresy determines the monad’s future birth. Upheld through Eternity, Karma decrees harmony across the Universe. Since Compassion is the Spirit of Truth, karma follows its behests and manifests as the Law of ethical causation. It is the One Law that governs the World of Being impartially, to Cosmos, Man, and Angel alike. The universal onward march of evolutionary progress proceeds along contrary directions — spirit falling gradually into matter, and matter ascending to its original condition, that of a pure spiritual substance. Greatness is measured by the standard of genuine spiritual (not psychic) development, i.e., the acquirement of soul-wisdom by personal effort and merit. Heart-wisdom and head-learning are divergent paths. A mountain abyss separates the two, so hopelessly impassable and obstructive to the traveller. The law of spiritual development supersedes the purely intellectual growth; the latter is more of an impediment than of help. Theosophy, being the only system of true religion and philosophy, offers lucid explanations and solutions to the puzzles of life. A rebuke to the Theosophical Publication Society: We are not seeking to cater to fiction readers and curiosity hunters, but to the pressing needs of earnest minds. The United States contain more theosophists and possible subscribers and readers than the whole of Europe. They do not want fiction. They want no padding in their search for truth. They are perfectly able to grasp that which the Theosophical Publication Society in London deems to be “too advanced.”

Download or read book The Sixth Sense is Reason over Instinct written by Helena Petrovna Blavatsky and published by Philaletheians UK. This book was released on 2018-01-23 with total page 35 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Sixth Sense is Mental Fire perceiving and registering the other five. There can be no perception without a unitary percipient whose identity enables it to grasp an object as an entirety, says Plotinus. Reason is purely human; instinct, an endowment of deity. Divine or Spiritual Soul (nous) without Anima Mundi is rational and noetic (logos); Animal or Astral Soul (psyche) within Anima Mundi, irrational and phrenic (alogos). Reason is the outcome of a slow development of the human brain (noetikon); instinct, the spiritual unity of the five senses endowed by Deity (aisthetikon). Reason is purely human; instinct, an endowment of Deity. But reason can only develop at the expense of natural instinct. The Sixth Sense will be fully developed in the average man of the Sixth Race by Buddhi, when galvanised by the essence of the awakened Manas. Water, one of four primordial Elements, was transmitted to us by the Fourth Race, as we shall transmit Ether, the Fifth Element, to the Sixth. Then our Sixth Sense shall be awakened. The Sixth Sense or “normal clairvoyance” will correspond to the next Element of Matter or “permeability,” i.e., spiritual sight. Then, those who have been seeking a “fourth dimension” to explain the passage of matter through matter shall find what they sought, a sixth characteristic of matter. Abstractions such as the “fourth dimension,” being outside mental perception and experience, are errors of realism if not unfortunate verbalisms. When the Fifth Principle has merged with the Sixth, man will acquire and enjoy Jnanashakti, the power and privileges of enlightened mind. Man is the child of Cyclic Destiny. Cycles of Materiality will be succeeded by Cycles of Spirituality, and fully developed faculties will open up the Sixth Sense. The majority of future men will be glorious Adepts. Having acquired physical development at the expense of spirituality from the Second Race to the end of the Fourth, Fifth Race humanity has now crossed the meridian of perfect adjustment between Spirit and Matter, or equilibrium between spiritual perception and brain intellect. But as the Sixth Sense has hardly sprouted above the soil of materiality, few can at present enjoy the legitimate outgrowth and endowments of the higher life. When the Third Eye or Dangma Eye of the Stanzas of Dzyan opens again, the minds of those who will live at that time shall be awakened and become as pellucid as crystal. Finally, when the Sixth Sense has awakened the Seventh, Chrestos shall be regenerated as Christos and will illumine the souls of all men. “And they will listen to my voice; and they shall become one flock under one Shepherd.”

Download or read book Bhagavan Das on the Triune Nature of Emotions written by Bhagavan Das and published by Philaletheians UK. This book was released on 2018-01-03 with total page 17 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Manas-mind, its vehicle, kāma-desire, and their interplay with other minds through karma-action are hard concepts to grasp without an appreciation that they are a single dynamic trinity, and not three ontologically distinct ideas. In his Science of the Emotions, Bhagavān Dās undertakes a bold and incisive study of the continuum of Desire-Thought-Action, where he demonstrates elegantly and convincingly that “emotions” and “feelings,” mostly mixed and lumped together by the ignoramus, are none other than the workings of this occult triplet. Mastership of the mind’s pendular māyāvic movements, swinging back and forth from the Centre of Being, is prerequisite to success in whatever domain it chooses to focus upon. Dr. Dās identifies the essential nature of Desire, elaborates upon the duality of primordial e-motions and their endless permutations, and proceeds unravelling the aetiology of attitudes and their behavioural implications. His Science sheds light on man’s lower propensities which, if left unchecked, will go on demeaning character and disgracing kith and kin. He instructs, amuses, and enlightens the reader through a series of pithy essays. He even lays bare the distinguishing qualities between confusingly similar emotions, from Devotion and Worship, to Smile and Laughter. The Science of the Emotions remains the definitive text for those seeking knowledge of self and Self.
