"The call from God to grow in a relationship with him reaches a person in a variety of ways. St. Teresa [of Avila] lists some of the ways: the words of good people, sermons, good books, illnesses, trials, moments in prayer. These occasions can speak to the heart and raise questions about oneself and life that call for a reorientation."
Spiritual Pilgrims, Carl Jung & Teresa of Avila - John Welch, O. Carm.

THE OCEAN OF THEOSOPHY
William Q. Judge
|
|
| 1 |
"The universe is a vast, complete, and perfect whole."
|
|
| 2 |
"Theosophy views the Universe an an intelligent whole, hence every motion in the Universe is an action of that whole."
|
|
| 3 |
"Mind is the intelligent part of the Cosmos….Mind is that in which the plan of the Cosmos is fixed or contained."
|
|
| 4 |
"All beings on earth are indissolubly joined together."
|
|
| 5 |
"What is the universe for, and for what final purpose is mankind?...It is all for the experience and emancipation of the soul, for the purpose of raising the entire mass of manifested matter up to the stature, nature, and dignity of conscious god-hood."
|
|
| 6 |
"The true doctrine is impacted in the imperishable center of man's nature."
|
|
| 7 |
"As was taught of old, the little worlds and the great are copies of the whole, and the minutest insect as well as the most highly developed being are replicas in little or in great of the vast inclusive original."
|
|
| 8 |
"The vast array of objects and men are not mere collections of atoms fortuitously thrown together and thus without law evolving law, but down to the smallest atom all is soul and spirit ever evolving under the rule of law which is inherent in the whole."
