Theos-Talk Archives (September 1999 Message tt00019)

Dear RICH
Over many years I have Studied , Both eastern and western
teaching I consider you are a very good missionary for the eastern
teaching 
I think that the west in their search more then fill the *chasm*
as you say. I for myself seam to diverge a little lately.
for religions and sectarianism has caused a lot of harm to their
followers
in the past century. there is now a third focus for our mind to
investigate
*Science* which is now gradually gaining credit in spiritual circles.
thanks to Capra.....Bentov.and many others. the science of secret
geometry
is now gradually understood. Dear Rich we need a whole new manifesto.
to integrate the east with the west. both very important. 
but we as a whole must first be like st. Francis integrate in our heart 
the compassion of all life. And in our harts, see the oneness.
Theosophy as the secret doctrine goes  does just that.  LUCIO
