Dear Friends,
When I use the phrase "Zen Theosophy", I am talking about the
following movement:
"Zen Theosophy is a school of Theosophical thought which focuses
on psychology, esoteric science, and meditation. Bearing no
official ties with the Theosophical Society, it was founded in
the 1970s in Holland, and then travelled to the United States and
Canada.
Unlike the Theosophical Society proper, it recognizes Alice
Bailey and her transmitted teachings, in addition to those of
H.P.Blavatsky and Annie Besant. In keeping with the Theosophical
traditions, Zen Theosophy advocates universal brotherhood without
regard for social status, race, or religion, and does not adhere
to any one body of doctrine but focuses on finding the truth in
all doctrines.
The name of Zen Theosophy itself denotes its purpose. Zen is the
art of meditation, called Ch'an in Chinese, and Dhyana in
Sanskrit. Theosophy is a word derived from Theos, meaning
Ageless, and Sophia, meaning Wisdom. The school therefore focuses
on meditation and the study of philosophy as a balanced
relationship, stressing the need for both."
