Re: Theos-World RE: Pseudo-theosophy and the Sufis

My views are:

Allright.
This is a short answer to your question:

I hold it to be true, that most theosophical teachings, which are used by Theosophical groups
and organisations are targetting a western audience or westernized audience - and certainly not a Middle Eastern one. This is - today - in our present informations society not an expression of compassion or altruism. I find it to be an expression of westernized narrowmindedness.

Today we have the western massmedias overwhelmingly influence on communication around the globe. The western massmedias are with their news flashes and the like creating a distorted image of the Middle East. And they have succeed in fooling many beginner Theosophists and even Theosophical teachers on what the Middle East is.

Dear Sufilight,

I am not sure I understood you point with regard to the Middle East,
but I totally agree with you on the need to be non-mechanistical in our
approach to Theosophy.
(Perhaps you can clarify your point on the Middle East.)

Regards, Carlos.

Hallo all,

My views are:

I hold it to be true, that theosophical teachings, which are not adapted to
time place and people
are pseudo-theosophical.

Blavatsky always told us, that we should not be clinging to dead-letter
teachings like the Christians
and their use of the Bible.

I truely hope, that theosophical literary outlets and websites on
theosophy in the future will become much more multiculturally wise. In fact
I am protesting against the cultural bias, towards the Middle East, which
we so often withnesses in theosophical teachings, circles, organisations
and especailly on theosophical websites.
The question is if anyone has compassion enough to understand this protest.
