Daniel:
Here's the quote I was thinking of before. It appears
on page 13, Volume I, of the SD:
The reader has to bear in mind that the Stanzas given treat only
of the Cosmogony of our own planetary System and what is visible
around it, after a Solar Pralaya. The secret teachings with
regard to the Evolution of the Universal Kosmos cannot be given,
since they could not be understood by the highest minds in this
age, and there seem to be very few Initiates, even among the
greatest, who are allowed to speculate upon this subject.
Moreover the Teachers say openly that not even the highest
Dhyani-Chohans have ever penetrated the mysteries beyond those
boundaries that separate the milliards of Solar systems from the
"Central Sun," as it is called. Therefore, that which is given,
relates only to our visible Kosmos, after a "Night of Brahma."
I'll try to write more on the important distinction
between a relative Absolute and the ultimate Absolute
soon.
