Hello Theos-Talk,
My friends call me Dee, living in Fayetteville, NC. I'm 31 years
old and I had lost myself somewhere and I have been on a mission to
discover me for the past year. A few months ago I discovered - or
finally come to terms - that one of the reasons that I'm having
trouble with discovering myself is that I have a form of
depression. But for the past year or so I've been conducting my
search from a spiritual perspective - and a lot of therapy sessions.
In the past year I purchased several books such as, different
versions of the Bible, the Septuagint, the Gnostic Bible, books on
paganism, I Ching, The Idiot's Guide to World Religions, meditation,
etc. Every time I went into the book store, there was this one
particular 2 book volume set that, for some reason, I was drawn to
it. I had no idea what it was or what it was about. Finally, one
day after several trips to the book store, and having some sort a
compelling feeling towards the books every time I walked down that
isle, I purchased the set , The Secret Doctrine. I read the
introduction and part of the first chapter. That's how I discovered
that there is such a thing as Theosophy. I had a difficult time
understanding what H.P.B. was saying, a lot of terms were foriegn to
me so I went back to the store and bought Isis Unveiled, hoping that
will clue me in to what every thing is about.
So here I am, joined a group in hopes of learning more about
Theosophy and maybe find some folks in my area that might be
interested in meeting up some time.
Have a Happy New Year,
Dee
