Titres dans Théosophie

In this unique audiobook combining science, metaphysics, meditation, and religion, Alex Red Kenaton focuses your awareness by disclosing precious information that will give you an insight to the many connections within oneself. A stream of consciousness depicting reflections and dialogues in the form of a loose interior monologue connection, characterized by some associative leaps in thought, this uncommon audiobook is held together by the author’s passion for science, spirituality, and an unrelenting search for truth.

After a painful confrontation with a senior pastor, his associate, the Rev. Al McGee, dealt with it by exclaiming the unsayable: “I don’t believe”! And thus began a wrestling match with the divine. Al was struggling with God. Arguing with God. Contending with God. And found that instead of a lightning strike he was given the grace of deeper understanding. Like the Old Testament character, Jacob, who wrestled all night with God to wake up with a new identity, Al, too, entered a realm of greater possibilities. By having it out with God, he realized God more deeply.

When we sow our seeds in the garden of life, do we settle for a meager display of two or three flowers? Or, do we aim for a pageantry of rich colors and breathtaking beauty? So asks author David Bruce in these exquisite essays inspiring us to live an active spiritual life. Fresh and concise, he ranges in theme from living with purpose, spiritual practice, and digital distractions to reincarnation, the human condition, and advice on books and reading. Free of dogma, he helps the open-minded inquirer find ultimate meaning.

In questo secondo volume viene approfondita la storia delle religioni, ricostruendo come l'unico raggio della religione originale sia passato attraverso il prisma delle diverse situazioni storiche e culturali diventando varie religioni, e queste, a loro volta, si siano sfumate in sette. Particolarmente accurato il confronto tra le storie di Crishna, Buddha e Gesù che mostrano analogie tali da sciogliere ogni dubbio in quanto alla loro origine comune. Un'opera indispensabile per chiunque sia in cammino su un percorso spirituale.

In the present age both Church and Science, the blindly-believing and the all-denying, are arrayed against the Secret Sciences, though Church and Science believed in and practised them - especially the Kabalah - at a not very distant period of history. One says now: “It is of the devil”! the other that the devil is a creation of the Church, and a disgraceful superstition ”in short that there is neither devil nor occult sciences. The first one forgets that it has publicly proclaimed, hardly 400 years ago, the Jewish Kabalah as the greatest witness to the truths of Christianity!

When we turn our attention to the subject of elemental Intelligences or Nature-Spirits, we are confronted by this immediate difficulty, that we are led at the very beginning beyond and behind the world which we know through the channels of the senses. Sense perception does not help us at all in our study of that mysterious realm of life which constitutes the invisible background of physical manifestation. Madame Blavatsky warned us long ago that to describe Nature-Spirits or Elementals as having definite and corporeal form was likely to lead into great error.

Quest'opera, pubblicata nel 1877 dalla famosa filosofa e veggente Helena Blavatsky, è così corposa da essere stata divisa in due grandi parti. Associandola strettamente con le dottrine esoteriche dell'ermetismo e del neoplatonismo, Blavatsky descrisse la teosofia come la sintesi della scienza, della religione e della filosofia, affermando il proposito di far rivivere in forma nuova la grande sapienza dei misteri antichi, già intravista a suo tempo dalle religioni maggiori.

An important introduction to the work of those who want to dedicate themselves to help humanity. Amazing stories and examples of cases of rescue and help by invisible helpers working on the astral plane. Those dedicated to this work arrive to help those who are dying, in need of rescue, or who are in extreme distress. On occasion, even those who have departed are given aid.

To the discerning few were revealed the esoteric, or spiritual, teachings, while the unqualified received only the literal, or exoteric, interpretations. In order to make simple the great truths of nature and the abstract principles of natural law, the vital forces of the universe were personified, becoming the gods and goddesses of the ancient mythologies. While the ignorant multitudes brought their offerings to the altars of Priapus and Pan, the wise recognized in these marble statues only symbolic concretions of great abstract truths.

This little book appeals, perhaps, to the Eastern rather than to the Western type of mind, but so many souls trained in the East are now being reincarnated in the West that it may find friendly [listeners] away from the land of its birth. Addressed to a purely Hindu audience, the lectures contain many common Samskrit words, familiar to every Hindu, that may sound strange in the ears of [listeners] of other faiths

We live in a diverse and multicultural world where spiritualists use their thoughts and prayers to awaken abundance, joy and alchemy in their lives. What if the mantras we use in our times of common-union (“communion”) could, in fact, be used synergistically? The Five World Mantras are Om, Amen, Allah, AUM and Tao. Billions of Christians, Muslims, Jews, Hindus, Buddhists and Taoists have used them for thousands of years to empower their thoughts and prayers.

Ciclo di dieci conferenze tenute a Cristiania (Oslo) nel marzo del 1912. Dopo aver precisato che le religioni sono tutte derivate dalle teosofia per uniformarsi ed essere comprensibili alle varie civiltà, Steiner chiarisce i tre punti di vista diversi di occultismo, teosofia, e filosofia. Lo scopo del ciclo di conferenze è espresso dalle sue stesse parole: "Approfondiremo la ragione per cui il grande ideale della nostra epoca debba essere quello che nessuna espressione religiosa deve trionfare sull'altra, ma che invece le forme religiose si devono intendere fra loro.

Annie Besant was a writer, lecturer, prominent Theosophist, and women’s rights activist of her time. She was a frequent contributor to various Theosophical publications of her day. This particular piece dates to 1911, and she’s lecturing on Christ from an intellectual but still spiritual standpoint. She encourages us to engage in critical discussion regarding historical evidence, authenticity of records, and his nature and purpose. She also touches on the Buddha, Blavatsky, Gnosticism, the mysteries, the ascended masters, and so forth.

Brother Westcott describes karma in a theosophical setting and also touches briefly on Esoteric Christianity while reminding us that we all have potential divinity inside of us. He warns heavily of the perils and pitfalls the neophyte must navigate to avoid becoming a black magician, while exploring what he refers to as the hidden mysteries of nature. Additionally, he reminds us that although every potential Adept must exist on this physical plane, they must also live above it.

Notable author Seth Pancoast, a theosophist and regular contributor to theosophical, esoteric, and occult journals and periodicals, writes on the topic of the cabalistic sciences. Here, we have collected two of his essays entitled "The Kabbalah" and "The Mystery of Numbers", written from a theosophical perspective. Please enjoy.

C. Jinarajadasa was a writer, philosopher, and prominent Theosophist of his day and a Freemason. In this particular piece, originally from 1908, the author examines the life of Gautama and the religious reformation in Hinduism, which he championed at the time. The author lays out the four efforts, the ten meritorious acts, and the five meditations. He quotes from Plato and others, discusses Theosophy and somehow connects it all to the state of Nirvana, which he discusses at some length.

Prominent Theosophical writer, Charles Webster Leadbeater, discusses how we are influenced by everything that surrounds us, be it rocks, plants, or other people. Everything we encounter possesses an essence appropriate to its elemental counterpart, which imparts an influence on us. Leadbeater explains how to navigate our environment with this in mind. Written for students of Theosophy.

"Mantrams" and "Aum" are two related essays by William Q. Judge. Mantrams, in short, are the verbalized form of a mantra, and Judge explains their use in his sometimes-familiar Q&A style of writing between the student and the sage. His piece on aum is written in a straightforward manner and examines this often-utilized vowel sound, also known as om, which is a sacred syllable of the Vedas and is used in meditation.

Blavatsky engages in a spirited debate on spiritualism, defending an article entitled "Fragments of Occult Truth" by another writer, though one she had published in her own periodical, The Theosophist. The article had come under attack by a rival magazine of the time, and Blavatsky comes to the rescue.

Leadbeater addresses the sorrow, grief, and despair we all sometimes experience in this mortal coil, especially when someone close to us has passed beyond the veil. He explains how our mourning for those who have transitioned beyond a terrestrial life affects those who now exist in spirit form. As well, before we can understand their position there, we must first understand our own here.
