Re: THE GLOSSARY

I see that Mr. Aveline is somewhat puzzled about the glossary
he mentions.

I will explain it below:

This glossary has been created by extracting, collating and 
rearranging many of the glossary terms to be found in the following 
three books by Geoffrey A. Farthing: Deity, Cosmos and Man, When We 
Die and After-Death Consciousness and Processes

As indicated by Mr. Farthing in these books, the actual definitions 
and wording for these glossary terms were taken (extracted) from The 
Secret Doctrine (H.P. Blavatsky), The Key to Theosophy (H.P. 
Blavatsky), The Theosophical Glossary (H.P. Blavatsky) and a few 
other works.  

For the current version of this glossary, all material has been 
rechecked by going back to these original sources by Blavatsky, etc. 
and some additional definitions have also been added from HPB's The 
Theosophical Glossary and the Glossary to HPB's 1890 ed. of The Key 
to Theosophy.  More terms will be added from time to time as found in 
H.P.B.'s voluminous articles.

Several individuals have been involved in this project and are 
currently working on expanding the glossary in the future.
