Theos-World Introductory Theosophy book

Sep 05, 1999 06:13 PM
by Nick Weeks


~Becoming: As Truth Is and As Love Does~ by Elmore Giles, Jr.   This
new,  inspirational, aphoristic and profound book is a fine
introduction to theosophy.  As the title suggests, both wings of
spirituality, Wisdom-- realization of truth, and Love -- compassionate
action, are equally emphasized.  The main sections  focus on Ethics,
Values & Ideals and Spirituality.  The middle section is the largest,
with many virtues and vices and ideals touched on in short chapters.
Virtually every sentence is a powerful seed thought for meditation and
action.

Both Barnes & Noble and Amazon have it.

Best,

Nicholas
