Theos-Talk Archives (December 2006 Message tt00938)

Friends,

SUNRISE is one of the important magazines in the theosophical world nowadays.  
In its current issue, there is an article by Sarah Belle Dougherty on the history of SUNRISE.  It says: 

"James A. Long, the founding editor, was a very practical person who believed that any philosophy or belief must be lived to be of real value. Life, he felt, was the only teacher and training ground.  In the first issue, he explained why he founded SUNRISE: 
"Each one of us can and will someday bring about a sunrise in our lives and that sunrise, once it comes, will light the way to future progress not only of the individual but of the whole human race... This will not come about quickly .....  [but] just as that spark of divinity can be unfolded in the life of a single individual, that same possibility resides in the whole of humankind; and even though it may take time, every effort that you and I and our fellowmen make to bring this about is an effort toward the realization of that golden age."
