ianity." He said in brief: Theosophy which is the Divine Wisdom on which all the religions of the world without exception are founded, has act, and can- not have, any quarrel with any, and considering that every religion is the people's natural way for the search of God, we do not ask anyone to leave his religion for another.

In coming into the Theosophical Society, a man does not leave his own religion, does not quit his own Church or religious community, is not asked to change his faith, is not asked to renounce his creed. Within the limits of the Thececphient Society; we have people of every religion which) is known to the world, all geeting on the platform of brotherhood, of the Divine in iman. That which we seek after is Truth, and we do not believe that Truth is confined to any religion, or to any special sect. We try to throw a light on its diffealties and to restore to any religion its original teachings which in the course of time it has lost. A very large number of the more intellec tual and tearded Christians have left the Churches which always complain of their lessening influence, and we can not help thinking that there is something fucking, not in religion itself but in its presentment, May it not be that in the way Christianity is put to-day, with the growing intelligence and conscience of the time, there are things which shock the conscience and cutrage the intellect No religion, can afford to grave the thoughtful and the culture the philosopher and the metaphysician with The form to be said to them. nothing of behet that suits the least cultivated
