Theos-Talk Archives (November 1998 Message tt00008)

Hi everyone

I'm making progress in finding a local Theosophy Teacher/Group! It shouldn't
be long before I can join a group.

During that time I've been read some Articles by W.Q.Judge, and have a few
questions which I hope you could help me with...again.

1. How did Madam Blavatsky receive her teaching? Was it by face to face
contact with the Adepts, or by Channelling?

2. (I'm only grasping here). As the Higher Self is called a True Sun which
radiates light - am I right in thinking that it 'always' shines and that the
light possess the same quality and nature of the Source? And if so...

3. Partaking of the light leads us to seek the Source of the Light. Is this
our True Self and True Will?

4. If Atma comes (I don't know how) from the First Cause, does it possess a
personality, attributes or/and character? If so, is it our aim to become one
with the personality &c.?

5. Is Atma and Buddhi already merged together, or is this also part of the
Great Work as in the merging of Manas and Buddhi?

And last but not least...

6.  Is channelling the art of concentrating a beam of the light from the
"Sun" into the Mind?

I would be really grateful for any help,

Alan
