CARLOS - A FEW THOUGHTS AND EXAMPLES IN CAPS.
KEN
Ken,
Thanks.
Too soon to look at 1975-2000?
Perhaps -- for a distanced evaluation, yes.
But it is not too soon to put things and facts on record. And that was my
point.
Besides, the change in vibration around 2000-2001 was (has been) most
significant, and I see scarcely anyone attempting to understand it, except
off-the-record and in private.
In general, people did not stop to understand or investigate what happened
to the vibration rates in 2000-2001.
That evaluation, even with partial results, would help sections of the
movement have some idea of what is going on, instead of just "keeping
business as usual" as if nothing had changed.
Things did change. And they will change more towards 2012 and 2020.
One does not have to pretend one is "the Messiah" to feel some
co-responsibility and to ask oneself what one can do to help stimulate a
better dialogue and understanding of the path -- in "beginnings of
centuries".
What are the characteristics of "start-of-the century-efforts"?
LOOKING BACK AT THE CYCLE PATTERN, IT SEEMS THAT THE SPIRITUAL QUALITIES
THAT ARE 'OPENED' DURING THE LAST QUATER CENTURY, THEN MUST BE MADE INTO
PRACTICE AND ROOTED IN LONGER TERM 'FORM'. TINGLEY'S EFFORT (1897-1942) AT
POINT LOMA 'INCARNATED' THEOSOPHY INTO EDUCATION, ART, DRAMA, MUSIC,
LITERATURE AND DAILY PRACTICE. HER IDEA WAS TO MAKE THEOSOPHY 'INTENSELY
PRACTICAL'. IN THE LARGER VIEW, IN ADDITION TO TINGLEY, ALSO BESANT-OLCOTT,
MONTESSORI, STEINER, KRISHNAMURTI ALL CONTRIBUTED TO THEOSOPHIC EDUCATION
IN SOMEWHAT DIFFERENT WAYS THROUGHOUT THE CENTURY. I OFFER THIS AS JUST ONE
EXAMPLE. IN OTHER WAYS MUCH WAS LOST. FOR EXAMPLE WITHIN THE FIRST DECADE
OF THE 20TH, THE AMERICAN MEDICAL ASSOCIATION FORMED AND THE 'ECLECTIC
MEDICAL MOVEMENT' WAS UTTERLY DESTROYED HAVING TO WAIT FOR THE HOLISTIC
RENAISSANCE BEGINNING THE THE 1970'S. A FULL 60 YEAR 'DOWN CYCLE'. THIS IS
AN EXAMPLE OF HOW A VERY STRONG AN POSITIVE ASPECT OF THE THEOSOPHICAL
MOVEMENT FROM 1875-1900 - THE ECLECTIC MEDICAL MOVEMENT -- WAS OVER POWERED
IN A COUPLE OF YEARS ! (MANY OF HPB'S ASSOCIATES WERE KEY PEOPLE IN THIS
SEE HISTORY OF DR. ALEXANDER WILDER J.D BUCK, JOHN URI LLOYD ETC.
