A psychological paradox: The despair of divine & immortal souls

Mar 26, 2004 06:15 AM

Dear readers,

I promise you that this very profound
3-part article is very informative and
useful, so much so that I consider it
an absolute must-read for everyone as
it will lead to much needed and important
private contemplation by each of us, and
especially for newcomers to theosophy.
And for those of you who participate in
the discussions and commentary here, it
contains a wealth of important subjects
to draw from.

This is the question that is answered in
the three articles (numbers 24, 25 & 26)
from the "Youth Forum" question & answer
department of THEOSOPHY magazine, which
is found in the "Additional" articles
Index page of my WisdomWorld.org web site,
and the direct links to them:

===========================================
"Far beneath the anxious or the smiling
surface of our normal lives, so far
indeed sometimes that we ourselves do
not suspect it, there exists in many of
us (not all, no doubt, for some of us
must be sane) a kind of disaffection,
a dark and subtle self-contempt. But
if men are really immortal, and potential
gods, as Theosophy has declared, why
should such feelings exist at all--
or at any rate, why so deeply?"

(25) Part 2:

(26) Part 3:

========================================================

Just in case you find the above links broken,
below is the link to the 13th of 18 sections
on the "Additional" articles Index page that
is entitled "NINE GROUPINGS OF ARTICLES FOR
YOUNG PEOPLE & ADULTS -- MOST OF WHICH ARE IN
"QUESTION & ANSWER" FORMAT". The link to the
Index page of the "Youth Forum" department
is the 5th one. After you click on it just
scroll down the page to the 24th, 25th, and
26th articles:

Dear newcomers to Theosophy:

I sincerely do hope that my web site offers
a well-rounded overall view of Theosophy and
the Theosophical Movement. The 3 main links
to everything on it are found below.

Please know that I'm only the compiler of
all the articles found on my web site; I'm
not a scholar; and also that I personally
do not like to take part in conversations,
even though I do hope that what I present
from time to time will help a little in
the discussions being carried on by others.
So please do not be insulted when I do not
respond if someone addresses me, or addresses
anything that is found in any of the articles
on my web site; I leave that for others to
deal with if they want to -- whether pro, con,
neutral, friendly or unfriendly.

You may find a great deal of the Truth that you
are searching for here:

WisdomWorld.org web site (Main Page):
http://www.wisdomworld.org

This is the Index page of the "Introductory",
"Setting the Stage" book, which was especially
compiled for newcomers to Theosophy:
http://www.wisdomworld.org/setting.html

The page where "Additional" articles are slowly
being added (which contains 18 sections that
can each be clicked on at the top of the page
in order to go directly down to them, as well
as to get the link to any particular section
that you may want to use in a posting on a
discussion board, or in an e-mail to someone):

"PUBLIC & PRIVATE ENTERPRISE DEVELOPMENT FORUM":
This next link is to the most updated version of my
economic proposal to humanity, a practical project
to help our suffering world that I also consider
to be Theosophical. In it you will find a new and
unique, but mostly unknown, economic system
model that might be able to put an end to involuntary
poverty on earth. How? It presents a way to fully
finance everything of importance that is needed
in every nation. Because of this it's well worth
pointing to. Please note that, for strategic
reasons, of wanting it to have the best chance
of being accepted by all peoples worldwide,
no matter what their religious, philosophical,
and scientific beliefs are, I've put it on a
completely different web site; it contains
no mention of, or link to, the Theosophy and
the Theosophical Movement that is presented
on my WisdomWorld.org web site:
http://www.PublicAndPrivateEnterprise.org
