Evolution And Intelligent Design in the Secret Doctrine
The pendulum of thought oscillates between extremes. Having now finally emancipated herself from the shackles of theology, Science has embraced the opposite fallacy; and in the attempt to interpret Nature on purely materialistic lines, she has built up that most extravagant theory of the ages-the derivation of man from a ferocious and brutal ape. So rooted has this doctrine, in one form or another, now become, that the most Herculean efforts will be needed to bring about its final rejection. The Darwinian anthropology is the incubus of the ethnologist, a sturdy child of modern Materialism, which has grown up and acquired increasing vigour, as the ineptitude of the theological legend of Man's 'creation" became more and more apparent. It has thriven on account of the strange delusion that-as a scientist of repute puts it-'All hypotheses and theories with respect to the rise of man can be reduced to two (the Evolutionist and the Biblical exoteric account).. There is no other hypothesis conceivable."! The anthropology of the secret volumes is, however, the best possible answer to such a worthless contention. "The Secret Doctrine," "ii 689"
Theosophy
The central tenets of Theosophia are not derived from any ancientor modern sect but represent the accumulated wisdom of the ages,the unrecorded inheritance of humanity. Its vast scheme of cosmicand human evolution furnishes all true seekers with the symbolicalphabet necessary to interpret their recurrent visions as well as theuniversal framework and metaphysical vocabulary, drawn from manymystics and seers, which enable them to communicate their ownintuitive perceptions. All authentic mystical writings are enrichedby the alchemical flavour of Theosophical thought. Theosophy isan integrated system of fundamental verities taught by Initiates andAdepts across millennia. It is the Philosophia Pe...
Teachers of the Eternal Doctrine
Raghavan Iyer founded "HERMES," a journal of Theosophical Wisdom, as one of several vehicles for the current behind the 7th Century Impulsion just prior to the beginning of the 1975 Cycle in Santa Barbara, California. In that journal, he illustrated the ways in which Mahatmas have worked and continue to work in the world. In the lead article of this volume, "The Seventh Impulsion: 1963-2000," he made clear that the Mahatmic impulsions were concentrated in the last quarter of each century, but that preparations for them occurred earlier, and that their reverberations lasted far beyond the conclusion of each quarter-century cycle in an unfailing continuous stream. Near the beginning of 1976, a...

Symbols of the Eternal Doctrine
The remarkable essays in this volume were written for the expressed purpose of helping both the newcomer to spiritual thinking as well as the skilled practitioner to see the everyday objects - from the wind and ships to deserts and lakes - and subjects - from dogs and ravens to dolphins and whales - surrounding us as concrete embodiments and living symbols of the fundamental spiritual Essence from which everything has evolved. These universal symbols are not just accidental mental constructs but are living realities that not only point to spiritual dimensions far beyond themselves but profoundly embody those spiritual realities. Learning to see the world around us afresh in the light of its ...
Theosophical Astrology
Astrology includes many things, has many forms, and serves multiple purposes. Taking just three common examples, typical astrological charts show the positions and relations of the planets at the moment and location of birth. Progressed astrology maps the return of planets to their birth positions as well as the times and ways they cross and relate to those original positions and to one another. And horary astrology looks at the positions of the planets in the zodiac at a given moment when some decision is to be made (e.g., when to lay the foundation stone of a temple). And then there is the astrology once commonly found in newspapers, where planets were taken in conjunction with the signs o...
