  • THEOSOPHICAL GLOSSARY” & Related Material: a Chronology
    H.P.B.’s “THEOSOPHICAL GLOSSARY” & Related Material: A Chronology Compiled and edited by Daniel H. Caldwell The Blavatsky Study Center http://hpb.cc ------------------------ OCTOBER, 1888 Volume One of H. P. Blavatsky's Secret Doctrine is published in London. On the last page of the "Table of Contents" (p. xvi), one finds at the bottom of the page this printed note: "N.B.---The Index and Glossary will be found at the close of Volume II." When Volume Two of The Secret Doctrine comes off the press toward the end of 1888, this volume does NOT contain the promised Glossary of Terms. ---------------------- JANUARY 11, 1889 William Q. Judge in New York replies as follows to an inquiry from C. H. Whitaker about why the promised Glossary was missing from Volume Two: "Dear Sir, I cannot throw light on the matter of the glossary. Perhaps it was found [by H.P.B.] to be too great a work and too much for the expense. I think it will be gotten out [at some point in the future]...." "...personally I think it was too much to offer a glossary with the Secret Doctrine. A real Glossary would involve 3 vols more." Quoted from: Judge, William Q. Practical Occultism: From the Private Letters of William Q. Judge. Pasadena, California: Theosophical University Press, 1951. --------------------- NOVEMBER 1890 (early) H. P. Blavatsky writes in the Preface to the Second edition of THE KEY TO THEOSOPHY: "In order to further facilitate the Study of Theosophy, which [the first 1889 edition of] the 'Key' has already made an easy task, I have added [in this 2nd.

  • Educational Resources 2017 Introductory Note
    The Theosophical Society in Australia Educational Resources 2017 Introductory Note In her book The Key to Theosophy, Madame Blavatsky, one of the Principal Co-Founders of the Theosophical Society, stated that the TS was ‘formed to assist in showing to (people) that such a thing as Theosophy exists, and to help them to ascend towards it by studying and assimilating its eternal verities’. Since its foundation in 1875, in New York, the Society has produced a very impressive body of literature which explores many aspects of the Wisdom Teachings referred to as Theosophy – Divine Wisdom – and regarded as the spiritual heritage of humanity as a whole. Loyal to its original intent, the TS has maintained that ‘there is no doctrine, no opinion, by whomsoever taught or held, that is in any way binding on any member of the Society, none which any member is not free to accept or reject. Approval of its three Objects is the sole condition of membership’. (Resolution on Freedom of Thought) The many resources which are included in this portfolio are presented in the same spirit: as material for study, reflection, understanding and dialogue. They include introductory, intermediate and deeper presentations; they also contain a great deal which is relevant to our daily lives, to the understanding of how our minds work, and to that deeper and necessary enquiry that leads to the realization of our deepest potential: Self-Knowledge. If there are any questions or comments about this portfolio, or orders for material, I will be glad to receive them.
