Theos-Talk Archives (February 2001 Message tt00145)

Let's look at THEOSOPHY. Those who OFFERED it to us did so to
assist us, and for no other reason.  As presented and several
times described by H.P.B. it is HISTORY .  It relates to the
development of all beings and of mankind particularly.  It
emphasizes that all living beings have a continuous SPIRITUAL and
MENTAL intelligence; and that persists through reincarnation and
reembodiment until every being has perfected the latent faculties
he has innately.

"Those who OFFERED it to us did so to assist us" That is an assumption  but
let us try to consider the opposite .Would we shy away from food offered if
we were starving, and start to question if the food was  allright or if it
had enough salt or pepper or if it was cooked or uncooked , i daresay we
would grab it for all it was worth and proceed to find out if it was poisoned
or not.
So far as i know  no one has died from Theosophy in these many years and
that's a record that will stand for all time unless one pays heed to fools ,
who karmically brought on their own "indigestion" and died.

The great thing about the  current availability of all of Theosophy to the
world is the lilkelyhood of more fools perishing? or more seekers  finding
some FOOD in that Ocean of Theosophy where ALL can be fed  as opposed to just
some food that could be found beside a stream , which in any event , being a
naturally grateful SOUL one would appreciate such small findings nonetheless
yet still have a yearning for ?
The availability of a whole Ocean as opposed to a small stream finding seems
to be relative to whom we are responsible for feeding on a daily basis and as
,it would seem to us, our awareness tends to grow through theosophic light it
starts to dawn on us of our responsiblity to ALL that lives in ALL the
kingdoms of Nature and beyond that a small stream, I'm afraid, just won't do
considering the latter.

So good fortune to the small streamers and may we all find that Ocean and
provide.
