Bailey, From her conservative British background, Alice Bailey's life led her in many directions, but always in one direction--towards the time when through drastic personal experience of many kinds she had acquired a synthesis of outlook and understanding, and an absolute conviction that one divine life pervades and animates the one humanity; that the Plan for humanity requires the cooperation and service of trained and dedicated human beings intelligently informed about world affairs, in collaboration with those who form the spiritual Hierarchy, the inner government of the planet. Her life work became an integral part of this synthesis and this realization. Without in the least losing any of her very human qualities and involvement, her soul took up its commitment to her Master, and her personality provided full cooperation in the field of her accepted service. Basically her work developed as a duality--her discipleship service which included the establishment of an esoteric school; and her initially reluctant agreement to work with the Tibetan, Djwhal Khul, in the writing of a series of books presenting the next phase in the continuity of the Ageless Wisdom teaching for the present and the immediate future.

    TEMENOS ACADEMY ONLINE PAPERS MICHAELMAS TERM 2020 7 A Secret Philosophy: W. B. Yeats and the Dublin Hermetic Society by Professor Grevel Lindop [Image: William Butler Yeats, by John Butler Yeats, 1900] 1 A SECRET PHILOSOPHY: W.B. YEATS AND THE DUBLIN HERMETIC SOCIETY (i) On June 16th 1885 a group of young men met in a modest upper room in York Street, near the centre of Dublin. They would call themselves the Dublin Hermetic Society, and they intended to explore ‘a philosophy which has until lately been kept entirely secret, or at most revealed only in symbolism’.1 The group had been called together by the young poet William Butler Yeats and his friend Charles Johnston. It was Yeats who gave the opening address. This was an important time in his life: three days earlier, he had celebrated his twentieth birthday; and his first published poems had appeared in the Dublin University Review just three months before that. We don’t know exactly what he said in those inaugural remarks, but later he recalled: I had, when we first made our Society, proposed for our consideration that whatever the great poets had affirmed in their finest moments was the nearest we could come to an authoritative religion, and that their mythology, their spirits of water and wind, were but literal truth.2 So poetry was involved from the start, with Yeats convinced (like Blake before him) that poets are the true prophets. He was also proposing the ‘literal’ (not merely metaphorical) existence of elemental spirits – that there are modes of existence, and living beings, inaccessible to our ordinary senses.
  • Theosophy and the Origins of the Indian National Congress

    Theosophy and the Origins of the Indian National Congress

    THEOSOPHY AND THE ORIGINS OF THE INDIAN NATIONAL CONGRESS By Mark Bevir Department of Political Science University of California, Berkeley Berkeley CA 94720 USA [E-mail: [email protected]] ABSTRACT A study of the role of theosophy in the formation of the Indian National Congress enhances our understanding of the relationship between neo-Hinduism and political nationalism. Theosophy, and neo-Hinduism more generally, provided western-educated Hindus with a discourse within which to develop their political aspirations in a way that met western notions of legitimacy. It gave them confidence in themselves, experience of organisation, and clear intellectual commitments, and it brought them together with liberal Britons within an all-India framework. It provided the background against which A. O. Hume worked with younger nationalists to found the Congress. KEYWORDS: Blavatsky, Hinduism, A. O.

    Painting the Masters. the Mystery of Hermann Schmiechen

    Painting the Masters The Mystery of Hermann Schmiechen Massimo Introvigne (UPS, Torino, Italy) Besançon’s Forbidden Image One of the first books where sociology of religion met history of art was L’image interdite. Une histoire intellectuelle de l’iconoclasme, published by French social historian Alain Besançon in 1994 Iconoclasm vs Iconodulism The controversial book argued that Western art history is defined by opposition between iconoclasm (i.e the idea that the sacred should not be represented visually) and iconodulism (i.e support for sacred images) Although the terminology dates back to the Byzantine iconoclastic riots of the 8th century (right), modern Western iconoclasm originated with John Calvin (1509-1564) and became culturally dominant after the Enlightenment Iconoclasm: not against art, but against an art representing God or divine spirits Besançon’s definition of iconoclasm is not identical with some dictionary definitions of the same word. For him, iconoclasm is not against art and may even promote it. It only excludes from the field of art the representation of God and divine spirits or beings Image of Byzantine Emperor Leo III (685-741) on a coin: Leo, a leading iconoclast, was obviously not against representing himself Abstract Art as Iconoclasm Besançon* also argued that: 1. Iconoclasm is a distinctive trait of modernity, and abstract art is its most mature fruit 2. Symbolism, at first sight anti-iconoclastic, by substituting the Christian foundations of sacred art with a very different esoteric spirituality, in fact prepared the way for abstract iconoclasm 3. Several abstract painters, including Piet Mondrian (1872- 1944) passed at one stage through symbolism (Evolution, 1910-1911, left) * … with whom I do not necessarily agree Besançon and Theosophy Besançon claimed to be among the first social historians to devote serious attentions to Madame Blavatsky (1831-1891) and other Theosophical classics.

    Morya, One of the "Masters of the Ancient Wisdom" Spoken of in Modern Theosophy and in the Ascended Master Teachings I

    Morya, one of the "Masters of the Ancient Wisdom" spoken of in modern Theosophy and in the Ascended Master Teachings is considered one of the "Ascended Masters." He is also known as the "Chohan of the First Ray". Morya first became known to the modern world when H. P. Blavatsky declared that he and Kkuthumi were her guides in establishing the Theosophical Society. Seven Rays Blavatsky wrote that Masters Morya and Koot Hoomi belonged to a group of highly developed humans known as the Great White Brotherhood. Although Master Morya's personality has been depicted in some detail by various theosophical authors, critics point out that there is little evidence that Blavatsky's Masters, including Morya, ever existed. There being a dearth of material evidence to prove anything with certainty, this article focuses on presenting the narratives about Morya given by various believers in his existence, beginning from the time of his alleged contacts with 19th-century theosophists. Morya Khan is known in many New Age religions as the Ascended Master of the Blue Ray or First Ray. He is well known as the 'Master M' who worked with the Kuthumi in the late nineteenth century to establish the Theosophical Society and to spread the knowledge of higher truths to a wider circle among mankind. After his alleged ascension in the late 1800s, he continued working for this same purpose. He is believed to have ascended in 1898. http://www.crystalinks.com/morya.html אל מוריה الموريا Ελ Μόρυα 天使のエル·モリヤ http://blogs.yahoo.co.jp/chain_of_flowers723/56856858.html Morya (Theosophy) For other uses, see Morya.

    The Problems of a Gnostic Science: the Case of Theosophy's Occult

    chapter 11 The Problems of a Gnostic Science: The Case of Theosophy’s Occult Chemistry The Relativist draws down the Veil of Isis, and says: this knowledge is for ever hidden from us. The Teachers in the Eastern Schools reverently lift the veil, and say: the solution of even these most inner mysteries, by searching, thou shalt find. G. E. Sutcliffe, Studies in Occult Chemistry and Physics (1923), xv ∵ Introduction: The Problems of a “Gnostic” Science1 Founded in 1875, in the middle of the so-called Victorian conflict between sci- ence and religion,2 the Theosophical Society has always exhibited an ambiva- lent attitude towards science and academic research. Helena Petrovna Blavatsky (1831–1891) and the early Theosophists claimed to seek a critical rec- onciliation between religion and science, guided by a quest for esoteric “higher truth”.3 The Theosophists’ goal was, in a sense, a “gnostic” one: the aim was to transcend the limits of reason and faith, and gaze through the veil of Isis to recover hidden, higher truths.4 As we shall see in the present chapter, this 1 Parts of the present chapter are based on an article published as Asprem, ‘Theosophical Attitudes toward Science’, while other parts are based on a paper given at the 3rd interna- tional conference of the European Society for the Study of Western Esotericism in Szeged, Hungary, in July 2011. 2 Cf. F. M. Turner, ‘The Victorian Conflict between Science and Religion’. 3 Note, however, that the original occasion for the Society’s founding appears to have been of more practical and explicitly magical nature, and especially focused on the practice of “astral travel”.

    Dreamworld Tibet: Western Illusions Martin Brauen (Trumbull, CT, USA: Weatherhill, 2004) First published as Traumwelt Tibet: Westliche Trugbilder (Berne: Verlag Paul Haupt, 2000) Part 2 In Search of 'Shambha-la' and the Aryan Lamas: The Tibet images of the theosophists, occultists, Nazis and neo-Nazis A. The Theosophists and some of their followers pp. 24-37 (excerpt; illustrations left out; pagination in square brackets; footnotes and relevant bibliography at end of document) === [24] An Aryan brotherhood For centuries we have had in Thibet a moral, pure hearted, simple people, unblest with civilization, hence—untainted by its vices. For ages has been Thibet the last corner of the globe not so entirely corrupted as to preclude the mingling together of the two atmospheres—the physical and the spiritual. 1 These lines were ascribed to Koot Hoomi, who was said to have belonged to a secret brotherhood in Tibet. Like other supposed 'brothers' in Tibet, he was most closely linked with Helena Petrovna Blavatsky (1831-1891), the founder of Theosophy. The first meeting of HPB (we shall frequently use this abbreviation for Helena Petrovna Blavatsky below) with her 'Master' goes back to the year 1851, but as so often in Blavatsky's biography, there exist various accounts, sometimes contradictory, of this first meeting. Her Master, [Illustration: Drawing of Master Koot Hoomi Lal Singh] 17 . Master Koot Hoomi Lal Singh, who was said to have been Pythagoras in a previous incarnation and to have lived in Shigatse during Helena Blavatsky 's lifetime. Many of the mysterious letters that Helena Blavatsky and other Theosophists received by miraculous means are supposed to originate from him.
  • The Shrine of Koot Hoomi”

    The Shrine of Koot Hoomi”

    IV “THE SHRINE OF KOOT HOOMI” In Studies I, II, and III, we have seen how, in building his case against Madame Blavatsky, in striving for her destruction, Richard Hodgson ignored the testimony of witnesses when this threatened his charges; how he disregarded the evidence of the Blavatsky-Coulomb “correspondence” when it proved Madame Coulomb a liar and destroyed her story of “Christofolo;” how he suppressed the fact Madame Coulomb told contradictory versions of the same incidents; and how he cast her assertions aside when they conflicted with his own spurious claims of greater implication. Having discovered how he butchered the truth by suppression, distortion, and mutilation of the testimony of other witnesses—from Mr. Sinnett to Madame Coulomb—, let us now enquire to what nefarious purpose this reporter put the word of Madame Blavatsky herself. * * * * One of the most involved and intricate features of the Blavatsky-Coulomb case concerns the structure and measurements of the Shrine and its surroundings. For example, the east side of the wall behind the Shrine was differently constructed at least four times during the year of 1883. This invitation to confusion allowed the SPR agent a golden opportunity to manipulate the testimony of witnesses to suit his purpose. However, one need not go into all of the ramifications and details of this particular issue in order to explode Richard Hodgson’s “modes of scientific investigation.” One or two illustrations will suffice here. The Testimony of Mr. Rahnavelu The central controversy here is, of course, whether, as claimed by the Coulombs, there was a thorough passageway for surreptitious transfer from Madame Blavatsky’s bedroom into 1 the Shrine itself during the period of related phenomena.

I certify that all material in this thesis which is not my own work has been identified and that no material has been previously submitted and approved for the award of a degree at this or any other University. 2 _________________________ Abstract Whereas occultists of the standing of H. P. Blavatsky, Annie Besant, C. W. Leadbeater, and especially Aleister Crowley have been well served by academic enquiry and by published accounts of their lives and work, Violet Evans, neé Firth (aka ‘Dion Fortune’), has suffered comparative neglect, as has her concept of the ‘Masters’ who inspired and informed her work. These factors, alongside the longevity of her Society of the Inner Light (still flourishing), are the catalysts for my embarking on this thesis. Chapter 1 discusses the method of approach, covers Fortune’s definitions of frequent occult terms, and compares observations of her work by fellow occultists and outside observers. Chapter 2 is a comprehensive review of mainly recent academic research into the role of intermediaries in magic and religion from ancient times, and serves as a background to Fortune’s own esoteric philosophy, showing that she was heir to a tradition with a long history.

    From Joshua David Stone Self-Attunement by Chris Comish This is a powerful attunement I have just discovered after integrating information from Joshua David Stone's Beyond Ascension and Cosmic Acension books. The Rays really help you increase your vibration and the amount of light you hold. Start at the top of the list and then work down the list as far as you can go. Each is an increase in vibration. Simply visualize the color and you being bathed in the light. Take at least 5 minutes with each ray. You are welcome to take longer. When you need to stop, then do so to integrate the energies you can integrate. If you can't tolerate an energy level, don't be discouraged, you can always come back to the meditation later. The cosmos is a very big place and you have plenty of time.
