Theos-Talk Archives (December 2002 Message tt00436)

Hi all of you,

Yes, - Larry and other politically concerned...

But what about Krishna and Arjuna where are they to be placed in all this
deabte ?
Do they belong outside of Theosophy because they were seriously involved
with politics ?
I don't think so !

I think everything has its time and place...
A major difference between theosophy and ordinary politics is as I see it, -
that theosophy always seeks
to avoid war and voilence, whereas ordinary politicians are NOT !

You can not bomb - Soul Force !
You see, we are the BUNNY RABBITS which batteries never go out. We die hard
!

"...with his hair standing on end..." (Bhagavad Gita, chapter XI, v9-14)

This is the dark cycle - the Kali Yuga...
It will last for about 5-6000 earth-years more. Well, at least some of us
claim that.

It is written in the stars, that some of them knew what would be happening,
and that they were very WISE...

One can't delete politics as a topic for debate theosophically speaking,
i.e. if you want to keep up the work Blavatsky was promoting.
She her self has stated just about the following:
- That theosophy do not meddle with politics. But if it is corrupt we do !
(Can anyone find that quote ?)
Theosophy seeks to create social uplift, - and does so using several
methods. And because of that Theosophy are to a certain degree involved with
ordinary governments and politicians, who spend more help, effort and money
on buying and developing dangerous weapons, than they do on social uplift !

But I do think, that one should keep focused when debating here at
Theos-Talk, - and DO remember to relate ones comments to the living
tradition of wisdom and theosophy.
If the theosophical focus (the focus of wisdom of the Gods) - are totally
abandoned in a debate, the the Moderator or people on Theos-Talk maybe ougth
to help it to stay focused.

Those with a too aggressive minds ought maybe not be a members at
Theos-Talk.
