Friends,

We live in a globalized society where commercial exploitation of the 
lower desires in human nature expand at the same rhythm as the  
ethical, social and environmental degradation. 

There were other and happier times in non-Christian cultures,  as 
HPB writes: 


"With the Brahmins, who have never invested with an 'original Sin' 
element the natural procreative functions of mankind, it is a 
religious duty to have a son. A Brahmin, in days of old, having 
accomplished his mission of human creator, retired to the jungle and 
passed the rest of his days in religious meditations. He had 
accomplished his duty to nature as mortal man and its co-worker, and 
henceforth gave all his thoughts to the spiritual immortal portion 
in himself, regarding the terrestrial as a mere illusion, an 
evanescent dream -- which it is.  ("The Secret Doctrine", by Helena 
Blavatsky, vol.I, p. 383, The Theosophy Co. Edition.) 


The present trend to dissolution and decay will be defeated, as HPB 
wrote elsewhere, "before the end of 21st century". 


Carlos.
