three limbs

Hi all,

On another list there were three limbs of theosophical work
mentioned. These were new to me - yet quite useful, so I am
sharing them with you all:

The three limbs are: study, meditation, service. 

The idea being (among others) that where the heart is
passive, the mind is not fruitfull, and vice versa.
Theosophical study is usually quite mental, which is both
one of the strengths and one of the weaknesses of the
movement IMO. In practical life the other two are needed to
balance stuff.
