easier to bear and death easier to face..

Three Great Trutha.. The broad outlines, of the great. trutha have been widely known in the world for thousands of years and are to-day largely penetrating: land influencing the noblest minds Mr. H. E. Lanspart gave an ad.of the West, which, In its incredible dress on "What is Theosophy" ated ignorant of them, and loag.,

extract of his remarks

An follows:-

There are three "great - truths, which are absolute and cannot be lost. They are as great as-life itself Theosophy is the divine wisdom, and yet as simple as the simplest and its direct individual knowledge mind of man and are known to and In man is the result of the awaken-direct the lives of every Theoso- ing in germ of divine powers of phist. universul perception, which in course of time all mep will learn to unfold and use in the service of man and God.

It is Theosophy the divine' wis- dom that conatitutas the foundation of all religions and thus they all serve the one God. It is Theosophy that renders life intelligible and shows us the love and Justice which guide ita evolution.

The essence of Theosophy is the fact that man being himself divine Jean know the divinit) whose life he shares, and the imminence of God and the brotherhood of all men are the fundamental teachings of Theosophy.

Intelligent Theory.. Theosophy may be described to the outside world as an intelligent theory of the universe. It is a statement of the great facta of rarüre so far as they have become known throughout the millenia to the direct vision of daring souls, the pioneers of the spirit and great investigators of the occult.

Yet even for lesser souls who study Theosophy, it soon becomes ino, more theory, but fact. · for. Thoesophy is a definite "aclence.. capable of being studied and Its teachings are verifiable by investi gation and experiment for those ||who are willing to take the trouble to qualify themselves for such inquiry.

Founded by Two Masters.

The Theosophical Society, as it exista today, has been founded by two of the masters of wisdom, mem- bers of the White Lodge, the inner government of the world, to draw those together whose good Karma has made them seek and knock for truth and light.

The mission of the Theosophical Society is therefore not to force its teachings upon souls still asleep and content with lesser lights, but simply to offer it to all so that those may take it who feel, the need for it. The knowledge of the graat truths of Theosophy has for us and for thousands of others made life

They are

(1) God existe and He is good. He is the great life-giver, who dwells within us and without us,' is undying, and eternally beneficent and is perceived by the man who desires perception..

:1

*

(2) Man is Immortal and his future is one whose glory and splendour have no limit.

(3) A divine law of absolute justice riles the world, so that each man is in truth his own judge, the dispenser of glory or gloom 'to himself, the decreer of his life,

his reward and his punishment,

Moving For Good.

To each of these great truths are. attached certain others, subsidiary and explanatory...

From the first great truth it follows:-

(4) That death is a matter of for less importance than is usually supposed, since it is by no means. the end of life, but merely the passage from one stage of 'it 'to- another,

(6) That man has an immense evalution behind him,, the study of which is most fascinating, interest- ing and instructive....

(6) That he has also a splendid evolution before him, the study of which will be even more fascinat- ing and instructive.

(7) That there is an absolute .certainty of anal attainment for every human soul, no matter how far he may seem to have strayed from the path of avolution.

Two Inseparable Parts From the third great truth it. follows:

•

(1) That every thought, word or action produces its definite rë- sulta-not a reward or punishment Imposed from without, but a result inherent in the action. Itself. definitely connected with it in the relation of cause and affect, those being really two inseparable parts l of one whole.

(2) That It la both the duty and Interest of man to study this divino law closely, so that he will be able to adapt himaalf to it and to use it, as we use other great laws of naturo."

ני

13) That it is necessary for mou to attain perfect control over himself, so that he may guide his life intelligently in accordance with this law.

(1) That in spite of all appear. When this knowledge is fully ances, all things are definitely and assimilated, it changes the aspect of Intelligently moving together for life completely, we come to know good; that all circumstances, how how we should live and why, and ever untoward they may seeth, are

we learn that life is worth living; in reality exactly what are needed; when properly understood we learn that everything around us tends, how to develop ourselves and to not to hinder, us, but to help us, make ourselves more asofût to if it is only understood..

those around us and ultimately to the whole' human race.

(2) That, since the whole scheme thus tends to man's beneft, clearly it is his duty, to learn to understand

3)That when he thus påder. atands it, it is also his duty in" telligently to co-operate in this scheme. :\"

Standpoint of the Soul, From the second great truth it follows:-

;;

(1) That the true man is a soul and that this body is only an appanage,

(2) That he must, therefore, regard everything from the stand point of the soul and that in every case when an internal struggle takes place he must realise his Identity with the higher and not with the lower.

(3) That what we commonly call his life is only one day in hie true and larger life.
