Theos-Talk Archives (August 2001 Message tt00147)

In the recent Theosophy World issue of August, 2001, one finds under the heading "Is there a spiritual science? Part II" the following statement by Boris de Zirkoff:

"We think of Adolph Hitler as a monster. Future historians will
think otherwise. If we lived in Napoleon's time, we might
consider him terrible. Hitler and Napoleon tried to do
impossible things. Lesser individuals surrounded them. They did
not entirely intend the evil that followed. We have little
versions of these monsters in every town, sometimes even in our
own family."

The comparison between Napoleon and Hitler is interesting, as there are many parallels between both men who can from an astrological standpoint be regarded as "men of destiny":
