Theos-Talk Archives (May 2000 Message tt00228)

Hi Michele,

Thank you for your response to my recent posts referring to science and 
theosophy:

I have good reason to believe that Einstein got his insights for practically 
all of his scientific breakthroughs from deep study of the Secret Doctrine.  
Besides having worked with Sylvia Cranston on her Biography of HPB, with 
respect to some of the science references therein, I have first hand 
information that Einstein actually had a copy of the SD for most of his 
working life.  I have also studied the SD as a scientific textbook and found 
that if I were alive at the time of Einstein and was of his age and had his 
same training in and knowledge of then current physics and mathematics as 
taught in Germany -- and if I also studied the SD and packed it with notes as 
deeply as I have already done -- I have no doubt that I would have come up 
with E-mc^2, photoelectricity, relativity, and quantum theory. 

Check out the following website and find out why I am so certain of this.

In addition, you might check out my ABC web site and find out what I intuited 
scientifically from the SD - with very little training in and knowledge of 
current postmodern physics and mathematics (although I was trained as a 
Chemical Engineer many years ago).
