Theos-Talk Archives (April 2006 Message tt00337)

Before one can even get an inkling of the esoteric, one needs to be fully v=
ersed in the universal language of symbols, religion, and science.

Exoterically she is saying that religion has caused all the suffering in th=
e world, and she has also provided explananation on how the cosmos works.

What do we actually mean we throw out words such as exoteric and esoteric. =
 At Uni I was taught that the exoteric simply carried the story, (The Merch=
ant of Venice) etc, while the esoteric was the moral dilemma of the human c=
ondition underlying the  story.
