Re: Study Theosophy On-line

Dear Nicholas,

I'd like to start with SD Vol 1, Book I Part III: the Addenda to Book I
of the SD Cosmogony. And Starting with
I: Reasons for theses Addenda

For example the quote from page 477:
" ... but the occultist, ... declares that the daring explorer, who
would probe the inmost secrets of Nature, must transcend the narrow
limitations of sense, and transfer his consciousness into the region of
noumena, and the sphere of primal causes. To effect this, he must
develop faculties which are absolutely dormant ... in the constitution
of the off-shoots of our present Fifth Root-race in Europe and America.
He can in no other conceivable manner collect the facts on which to base
his speculation...."

I think we could do that, with caution,  through visualization or
meditation on kabalistic diagrams or other means and intuitively
formulate a vision of Nature.
I have some experiences in it but again it is only with caution that I
may speculate.
Those faculties are probably higher Siddhis.
Even medidating on the great photographs from the Hubble telescope is a
source of inspiration. But the key is in "transfer our consciousness
into the region of noumena..."

Any opinion?
