Dear Reed:

Many thanks for this quote:

------------------------------------------------

Secret Doctrine Quote of the Day for February 28, 2004

...it is the crying complaint to-day, not only among theosophists, but
also 
among the few profane interested in the subject. "Why do not the adepts 
reveal that which they know?" To this, one might answer, "Why should
they, 
since one knows beforehand that no man of science will accept, even as
an 
hypothesis, let alone as a theory or axiom, the facts imparted." (Secret

Doctrine Vol I page 306.)

------------------------------------------------

It has always seemed to me that THEOSOPHY was such a presentation.

Few then, may apprehend how very fully an actual presentation is
palatable -- as the current views of science and religion are so very
much limited to this present existence.

Without Karma, reincarnation and the perfectibility of every human being
there is no integrated purpose that is logical and answers all factors
in consideration.

But "changing the Manas and the Buddhi" of the "race" is a slow process
-- and we ought to be glad that so much has been done -- and remains for
us to do. 

Best wishes,

Dallas
