Hmm...interesting comments.
One one feel certain if the definations were they according to H.P. Blavatsky
and perhaps her Master Teachers.
It would seem the most fortuitious information for such an encyclopaedia
should
could be plummed from HPB's already existing monumental works. If you begin
selecting this one and that one and so on and so on, before you know it their
is
a presentation of any thinkers ideas that could be skillfully interfaced
with
the Adept Teachers presentations through HPB in the 19th Century.
Then what would jump forth from the pages of this so called encyclopeadia
would
the same thing we see in the Bailey Thesis re the Cosmos, The Christian
Science
Ideas and lo behold Teilhard's interweaving of the "THE Secret Doctrine with
"The Human Phenomenom," not to mention the myriad new age nuances lifted
right from H.P. Blavatsky's Teachings and so on and so on and so on as the
story goes.
Wasn't there a Glossary by HPB of which when published was just a small
portion
of this work that she began. It seems to me this would be the best place to
begin
such a project...if even needed.
Perhaps, a change in the manner in which HPB'S BOOKS are presented and
advertised would be moot before we leave this century. Isn't it true that
everything with her name upon it gives a complete enclyopeadic presentation
of the ideas, terms and name and catagories of wisdom teachings and so much
more
that she uses.
If anything is to be done to improve upon the Theosophical Teachings it is my
sincere hope that such an encyclopaedia would come to be known as the
THE COMPLETE UNABRIDGED ENCYCLOPEADIA
OF
THE SECRET DOCTRINE TEACHINGS OF
H.P. BLAVATSKY AND HER ADEPT TEACHERS.
Personally, I do not think we can improve upon excellence. Do you?
In this century and in many futures all we really do is write sonnets,
essays and
wonderful bouyant philosophy with the brilliant immagery that HPB'S own
enthusiamsm sparks and manifests in each of us each time her words reach into
our heart and generates in our mine Truth in all of its constancy.
