Theos-Talk Archives (May 2006 Message tt00171)

Dear Chan,

You quote:

"We propose a cosmological model in which the universe undergoes an 
 endless sequence of cosmic epochs that begin with a "bang" and end 
 in a "crunch."

Yes, this is pretty much present-day Astronomy, and totally "Secret Doctrine". 

I would add that Fred Hoyle, an important 20 th century Physicist  who did NOT accept the current "Big-Bang" theory, also wrote many things similar to those of HPB's "Secret Doctrine".  

Fred Hoyle quoted ancient Greeks and Hindus -- to say that the Universe is consciously directed 'from within outwards', etc. 

I should bring here something about that. 

Best regards,   

Carlos Cardoso Aveline.
