Theos-Talk Archives (January 2004 Message tt00264)

Dear friends:

As far as I know: 

Any "belief" is inherent in you and a result of your own study and
logical ability.

But also it can be checked with other's knowledge and experience.  
A consensus is better than a unitary view,

The touchstone is universality and impersonality. A truth is the same
at all times, and places and to everyone -- always identical. It is
also reasonable.

Nest wishes,

Dallas

Thanks Dallas.

Really I was joking, because that quotation was Woody Allenīs, if I can
remember...if a book or film...
I gess that I am not afraid of death, but who can so absolutely be sure
untill the d-day comes and you feel it coming?
We can be sure of our feelings only when we face the specific situation.
I know people who is sure about the continuation of life, she is now an
old woman, a spiritist too, but when certain situations come, she just
forget the law of karma and also the rencarnation process.
So I gess there is an intellectual knowledge of these principles of
reincarnation and all the beliefs in the continuation of life, (
something like a "I read about it, but I am not sure it īll really
happen to me " ) and an inner conviction ( " I read it once and I am
sure this will also happen to me " ).

How can the intellectual knowledge of Theosophy and Secret Doctrine make
us real believers of its principles?
Many of us are only readers, enquirers of SD, some more than a decade
long, but when life brings us to a situation in which we must testify
what we learn...we are feeling weak again, even with all these readings
and studies...
It should be the strongest effort in life, to become this wisdom a true
personal enlightenment.
I donīt know if my rusty english is helping me to express..

Hav' yall a nice day
Krishtar

Hallo Krishtar and all,

My views are:

Be assured, that there is no reason to be afraid for what happens to
you
when the time comes for you to die.
I know that.
And you certainly have some years ahead of you in your present
incarnation
if it all carries out well.

That is what I can help you with.
But follow your own reasoning and development of the same.


from
M. Sufilight with peace and love...
