Theos-Talk Archives (August 2005 Message tt00056)

Thank you for the welcome.

I haven't really read anything yet, but I have
contacted my local chapter of the Theosophical
Society, and I am waiting for their information
package... I've been checking out their site.

I first heard about Theosophy thus: I once read a book
entitled "Jesus Christ, Sun of God," which was a very
interesting study of ancient greek/early Christian
cosmology. It was published by Quest Books, which is
a theosophical publishing house, so that's how I had
first become aware of its existance, but I didn't
really explore it because I was involved in yo-yo
Catholicism (I'd keep switching back and forth from RC
to various religions- Wicca, Taoism, Hinduism,
Theodish Belief, Roman reconstructionism, Pleaidianism
etc, and not necessarily in that order) at the time. 
I had heard of Mme H. P. Blavatsky of course, and I
new that Theosophy has been very influential in the
20th century on New Age/Occult thought.
