Theos-Talk Archives (June 2009 Message tt00484)

The disconnect between the talk and action is a world-wide problem.
-
Just as an example, when all the events were taking place starting with the
nomination process in the last international election, not a single well
known theosophical speaker and lecturer and even those some consider as
âeldersâ who have been lecturing about theosophical classics for years and
years, said a word about the happenings. I suspect it was just the fear of
being marginalized, because that is what happens when you do not tow the
official line.
-
Theosophy has given all of us some guidelines and it is upto each one of us
to use it in our daily lives, since it is our personal life that is most
important.
-
So next time, I am at a lecture when any of these leaders talk about any
theosophical classic, it would not mean much, because of the above
experience.
