I have been corresponding with the Einstein Archives regarding Helen Dukas. They state that Helen never traveled to India. In addition they are carrying on a parallel correspondence with the Adyar Library and now with the headquarters. Both of us re…

Well, it looks like another dead end. There is some wiggle room here, I think. Is Mr. Shinde indicating that it could have been donated to the "Headquarter's Archives of the Theosophical Society"? I'm not sure. I still want to see that article by J…

I'll follow up on this as directed in the note below. I received the following this morning from the Adyar Library. 02.09.10 Dear Sir, With reference to your e-mail dated 27.08.10 there is no any copy of H.P. Blavatsky "Secret Doctrine" donated t…

According to the Internal Revenue Service, in a circular dated June 30, 2010 the Not-For-Profit status for a number of Theosophical groups is at risk for not filing their tax return. The IRS has granted an amnesty until October 15th for the filing…

From a recent account of the background to the SD commentaries by HPB, there was obviously foot dragging by the custodian for whatever reason he/she had. I think a great opportunity was missed in using Internet to spur the custodian to move quickly…

Commenting specifically on why the TS doesn't get more members... There's a saying that "All politics is local". The TS, being a membership-based organization is not immune to this reality. We'll get to that in a few minutes, but first... There a…

Yes, I agree, that article by John Algeo was first rate. If that's accurate quote by Einstein, he was familiar with the SD. And I'll look for that new edition of "Tao of Physics." Hopefully, this search for the Jack Brown article will come to the a…

Excellent! Thanks much. It appears that Mr. Laudahn still lives in Ojai, according to a web search. We still need to find someone in Ojai to get a copy of the article for us. BTW, that is a really good article by John Algeo. It's definitely worth t…

On the current topic, here is a footnote from an article by Algeo. "Jack Brown, “I Visit Professor Einstein,” Ojai Valley News, 28 Sept. 1983, C-7. This article, for a copy of which I am indebted to William Laudahn, is part of the legend that Einst…

Joe Fulton commented on K. Paul Johnson's blog post 'D.M. Bennett: The Truth Seeker (video documentary of Free Thought leader and friend of TS founders)'

Bennett is a fascinating character and certainly one of the few who one is left feeling admiration for after reading the Mahatma Letters. His devotion to truth and his willingness to endure at whatever the cost are noteworthy in any era.

Meanderings - August 31, 2010 - The Story is About You!

For most who are familiar with the term "Theosophy", the next item that invariably comes to mind is HP Blavatsky's "Secret Doctrine" (hereafter referred to as 'SD'). On this site you will find a number of very interesting interpretations of the work…

Thanks, Richard, for joining in here. I hadn't heard of Einstein's passing interest in Reich. I did a little study on Reich years ago with some friends. Two groups built separate Orgone Generators. One groups claimed to have gotten some results, the…

You may have hit upon a good possibility. Thinking it over more, I see where Einstein would have stayed away from anything too "Occult" when he was young and building his reputation as a scientist. The notion he obtained some kind of "inspiration" f…

No paydirt in the Dukas book, so far. What I'm wondering is if Einstein may have resorted to less conventional approaches later in life to account for the paradoxes he observed. He seems to have had extreme problems in developing a Grand Unified Fie…

My thoughts exactly, concerning Einstein, and that of many others in physics and science. But, it's not a mainstream view. It seems mainstream physics is still reductionist and is desperately trying to explain away "quantum weirdness" in those terms…

Leon Maurer is much more qualified to comment than I am. You might want to take a look at his ABC theory. There were a number of concepts that Einstein seemed to be revolted by, especially in quantum physics. My gut feeling on the issue is that his…

How to Use Our Site &
Our Forum Objectives

This network, in a very broad sense is theosophical, in interesting and sometimes quirky ways...we believe that wisdom is eternal, but its expression needs to be in step with today's world. The spirit that guides our forum is the that of open inquiry and the objects of the theosophical movement associated with our name. That being said, it is important to understand that we are not affiliated with any theosophical organization. We therefore, are free of any official influence or connections.

1) To form a nucleus of the Universal Brotherhood of Humanity, without distinction of race, creed, sex, caste, or color.

2) To encourage the comparative study of religion, philosophy, and science.

3) To investigate unexplained laws of nature and the powers latent in humanity.
