Theos-Talk Archives (April 2004 Message tt00274)

-Hallo Morten,
So you can see in your reply
There is a lot to do A lot to make life perfect for the whole world!
To turn violence into agressive for the wellfare, to use that energy 
or force to fight for peace.
In stead of to use it against.but..... And there we go on, as long 
as there is a community of interest in for example the governments, 
which give the models for the countrymen... we far away of peace.

We as rational Creaturs have not to neclect The higher for the lower.
( but that you will know yet).


For this I must think on the sign of Pythagoras the Y
This Y is standing for the necessary of the correct choices in all 
cases and to safe the natural balance of things through the + and -
always in balance= equal and in difference to combine.

I reply :

Through the rightousness in the heart, 
the character is made more beautiful.
With the beauty of character harmony is established in the home.
When harmony is in each home,
order is established in the Nation.
When there is order in the Nation,
PEACE is established in the World.

So may wordlywisdom,love and the inner light help us on the way of 
life.

Christina

P.S. I heared another story of a theosophist; in his holidays he 
sleeps one night on an althar in a church.

"From that time they close the churches"
