Dear Zoltan:
 
Consider this as practical basis:
 
Take the one great practical book:
 
The VOICE OF THE SILENCE gives details, and I think we all need to pay
attention to them, each in our own way.
 
 
1. The "form" in which they were recorded or printed, or drawn, or even
sounded and chanted physically -- is said to be the lowest of all. Or
the "doctrine of the Eye." And
 
2 The "cause side" or, that which may be either psychical or
spiritual.
 
Of these two, we know little that is definite about these, since our
instrumentality on those planes is under development, and, it would seem
we are cautioned to be careful there. We need to learn how to detect
impulses that arise from those two principles and pay particular
attention to "intuitions? And "the Voice of Conscience.
 
If psychical, then there will be opinions and differences -- sentiment
and guess work. This has to be changed into certainty.
 
If spiritual, there is only one interpretation: the "doctrine of the
Heart." That is cooperation and brotherhood in all matters of action we
might generate. For instance a sage said to his pupil" Perform all
your actins because they are necessary, and do not look to results." --
Krishna to Arjuna in BHAGAVAD GITA.
 
All of these presentations have effects. But where and on whom?
 
Each one of us has to determine this for themselves. This appears to be
our present lesson and learning experience.
 
Theosophical texts if carefully sifted reveal here and there, methods we
can check and possibly employ. But we ought to first familiarize
ourselves with the FUNDAMENTALS -- just as we would in the study of a
science. And in all those we find that mathematics, as a method of
measure and recording, is basic. Even the most recondite measurements of
time, space and motion in science are based on simple arithmetic.
 
Theosophy offers that arithmetic. What is novel? It includes the MORAL
EFFECTS of every action and that relates to our interior MOTIVES.  
 
It declares that we are held responsible by Universal Nature (the DEITY,
if you please, by whatever name) for the effects that arise from our
acts, speech, thoughts, feelings, etc... THIS IS OF PRIMARY
IMPORTANCE.. There is no escaping the results of anything we choose to
do. 
 
It says that 
 
 
1. all acts (thought, feeling, speech, action) affects our form
(physical body) and other forms and centers of Force (Monads) all around
us.  
 
 
2. This effect is immediately made by Nature's laws into Karma.

 
 
3. All Karma is shared around. Our particular kind returns to
us.
 
 
4. We constitute ourselves, by our motives, into centres of
harmony
or of disturbance.  
 
As Monads that think, we are free to do this. But we live in a Universe
of LAW and of RIGID JUSTICE. Karma is designed to draw our attention to
this by returning to us (like an echo) all the effects we generate. We
have to experience them ourselves.
 
5. The decree of the Universe is that there should be harmony
universal, and no infringing on the rights and privileges of others
without their consent --- in other words that is BROTHERHOOD (in
thought, feeling, word and deed).
 
 
6. The Monad is a spiritual entity that unites three basic
Principles (ATMA - BUDDHI - MANAS) or, UNIVERSAL ONE SPIRIT, --
UNIVERSAL EXPERIENCE, and - MIND.  
 
Each Monad, every atom (and sub-atomic forces and powers), and each
molecule is a Mind in evolution. It may be sub-conscious, partially
conscious or fully conscious (of all other Monads and the Universe and
its LAWS.).
 
7. Consciousness and intelligence are universal faculties.  
 
The level of their development indicates the level of Monadic progress.
 
 
Monads are eternal and indestructible. They are SPIRITUAL ENTITIES.
Interiorly we are Monads, and as a group (humanity, we are half way
though our curriculum.
 
 
Since they are basic they destroy the personal sense of difference
 
What is basic to the study of our Universe, our World and Ourselves?
Theosophy.
 
In the SECRET DOCTRINE pp 14 -19 we are given 3 basic ideas the pervade
the entire system. Without them there is NO system and the Universe is
chaotic. We have plenty of evidence that it is not so.
 
1. The UNIVERSE is immeasurable and complete on many planes of
existence. These correlate and are entirely cooperative.
 
2. Every aspect of life in the Universe and it itself is ruled
by
rigid LAWS.
 
3. The Universe consists of centres of Force and Energy. These
evolve in their individuality, and totality, in terms of intelligence
and consciousness
 
There are no exceptions to these facts. No "God" can interfere or
change these.
 
If you desire to inquire into Mr. Judge's bonafides, study what he wrote
and compare with what H P B wrote. I have posted elsewhere a few
examples of their correspondence.
 
Best wishes,
 
Dallas

Dear Dal!
 
I had read many times your writings to this list and I found them really
good placed in the world.
 
I'm very interested, that how and how much can it be present in Your
everydaylife.
I think these would be a real good pattern that the writed and readed
things has some true.
 
I used my active english years before, sorry about the lingual
incorrections.
