"Myths, as they now come to us, and as they break up to let their pregnant motifs scatter and settle into the materials of popular tale, are the purveyors of a wisdom that has borne the race of man through the long vicissitudes of his career."
The Flight of the Wild Gander - Joseph Campbell

BASIC THEOSOPHY
Geoffrey Hodson
|
|
| 1 |
"All the 'organs' or parts of this Macrocosm, though apparently separated in space and plane of manifestation, are in fact harmoniously interrelated and interacting."
|
|
| 2 |
"As a captain must know both his ship and his charted course, so man must know himself and his pathway in life."
|
|
| 3 |
"All beings are synthesized to constitute one great Intelligence."
|
|
| 4 |
"Man is a God-in-the-becoming. This, the ancient Sages taught, is the destiny of man: fully to make manifest his inherent powers."
|
|
| 5 |
"The present dark period will pass as the human intellect increasingly transcends the prideful, acquisitive, separative attributes of the formal mind, and develops the powers of the synthesizing, prophetic, intuitive faculties of the Abstract or Higher Mind."
|
|
| 6 |
"Cultivate a state of goodwill to all. Never by thought or word or deed hurt another."
|
|
| 7 |
"It is the nature of love to change us into the likeness of that which we contemplate." A. E. (George W. Russell),
|
|
| 8 |
"As a sponge is in the ocean and the ocean is in a sponge, so we are in God and He is in us." Rufus Mosely
|
|
| 9 |
"Realisation of the unity of life solves problems of human relations, personal, national and international. All are one, and realisation of this fact by a sufficient number of people will bring world peace."
|
|
| 10 |
"We live in God. That's what we breathe."
|
|
| 11 |
"There is in existence in the whole Universe only one Spiritual Essence, one Spiritual Being, one Divine Flame – and the Spiritual Self of man is forever at one with that all-inclusive One Alone. This is the one great truth."
|
|
| 12 |
"There is but one divine Will, one divine Life, and one divine Intelligence."
|
|
| 13 |
"In the age and evolutionary phase of wisdom which is now dawning, man will realise the fact of unity and learn consciously to draw upon and wield the power from the One Source."
|
|
| 14 |
"All are one. Minerals, plants, animals, men, supermen, angels, archangels, worlds, suns, stars and galaxies – all are one, inseparably united……This is the sublime truth, the Master fact – all are one."
|
|
| 15 |
"There is nowhere in which to be lost. God is omnipresent."
|
|
| 16 |
"There is a quotation to the effect that 'God wills to see, and behold the eye'. Even so the innermost Self wills to express itself outwardly, to become aware, to know, to commune."
|
|
| 17 |
"The true citizen of the New Age will let compassion control even the details of daily life. He will shrink from harming anything that breathes because he will accept the Law of Kinship of all that lives."
|
|
| 18 |
"Within-ness and without-ness use both infinite, but also one."
|
|
| 19 |
"The [human] Monad is a seed of the tree of life, a quiescent spark in the One Flame or Supreme Fire, a breath of the Great Breath, a cell in the Divine Body, a Divine Fragment, a Son of the Father, a scintilla of the Spiritual Sun, containing full divine powers in a latent state."
|
|
| 20 |
"The chaos, the wars and the threat of wars, the ruin and the disease in the world are, I suggest, the direct result of humanity's denial in motive and conduct of the truth that Life is One."
|
|
| 21 |
"A profound, fundamental truth concerning man is that, in his spiritual, intellectual, psychical and physical nature he is a miniature replica or epitome of the whole order of created beings and things."
|
|
| 22 |
"Every experience has its value in terms of a drawing out, an increase, of innate power, wisdom and knowledge."
|
|
| 23 |
"Unfoldment from less to more and reharmonization operate irresistibly upon man, as upon all else that exists. Man can delay or hasten, but he cannot ultimately frustrate these two functions of the Cosmic Will."
|
|
| 24 |
"The Adept-to-be is in us now. 'Ye are Gods.' (John X:34). 'Christ in you.' (Col. I:27). 'Look within: thou ART Buddha'."
|
|
| 25 |
"All these parts of the Cosmos…are in correspondence or harmonious interaction or mutual resonance with each other."
