Well, gimme a break...central is Brotherhood and the Love for all that lives...by pointing in a direction of the above, one could easily scare people off, like if you don't love the other you get bad karma or something like that...Of course karma is a law, but the Truth which is unconditional Love is above any law of Nature!

            Hi Gineata,



Welcome to the wonderful world of Theosophy, which, if you have found 

it in this cycle, is probably something you have experienced before, 

perhaps under another name. Central to the philosophy of Theosophy 

are the principles of karma and reincarnation, which, basically 

indicate that we are responsible for our actions, and we live many 

lives upon the earth, as do all other life forms. If you are drawn to 

the study, it will definitely be rewarding to you. Try to keep an 

open mind, and remember, we are only human. We all try to practice 

humility, obedience, compassion, forgiveness, and unconditional love, 

but it is an uphill battle. A worthwhile one, however. Many students 

have tales such as yours to tell of their introduction to the study 

of occultism. We are approaching the gates to the inner mystery of 

life, and the invitation to enter can take many strange and wonderful 

forms



All the best,

Adelasie
