On the night of his historic and inspiring election as the first African-American president, Barack Obama spoke of the trajectory of history. He paraphrased Martin Luther King Jr. when he said, “The arc of history is long, but it bends towards justice.”
These are hopeful words, and for those who seek justice and human rights, they are a reminder that we cannot simply stand by and wait for the arc to bend. We have a duty to use our power and influence to hasten its trajectory.
That is…

UNDERPINNING the universe is not gravity as taught today, but an electric vital power, according to Theosophy.
Notwithstanding, physicists are still stuck on gravity to support their “standard model”—that the weakest of forces rules the entire universe—about which, admittedly, they know not much.
Gravity is mathematically incompatible with the quantum laws that govern subatomic particles, and that “leaves 95 percent of the universe unexplained” writes Dennis…

“THE PAST, the Present, and the Future are, in the esoteric philosophy, a compound time,” wrote Helena Blavatsky, “for the three are a composite number only in relation to the phenomenal plane—but in the realm of noumena have no abstract validity.”
Our generally accepted worldview of duration and time “are all derived from our sensations according to the laws of Association,” explained Blavatsky.
And according to a precept in the Buddhist Prasanga-Madhyamika…

I must warn you at the very outset that I propose to speak to you this afternoon not as former President of the Oxford Union, nor as an Oxford don. I want to abdicate this role and speak to you as a seeker and a pilgrim, because that was the way in which I went to the Dalai Lama. That is the only justification for my trying to tell you what he said to me during that memorable and moving interview which he graciously granted me…

THE Cherokee say that “our first teacher is our own heart,” but unfortunately our western science has rewarded that teacher with very few apples.
Mainstream medicine still looks at the heart as only a mechanical pump.
That view is beginning to change. The Medical Community is being challenged to expand its thinking about human biology, health, and wellness.
Leading-edge research in holistic medicine, biophysics, bioenergetics, and frontier biology all…

How comes our physical body to the state of perfection it is found in now? Through millions of years of evolution, of course, yet never through, or from, animals, as taught by materialism.
"For, as Carlyle says: — 'The essence of our being, the mystery in us that calls itself ‘I,’ — what words have we for such things? — it is a breath of Heaven, the…

Do any of us really have a choice in what health insurance we get? It seems that most of us are just grateful to get whatever our company provides. Being without insurance for almost a year after a layoff, I know I am glad to now be getting insurance.
Medical insurance,
Dental insurance, and Vision insurance are all important benefits to have in today's world.
What ideas exist that…

THE idea that things can cease to exist and still be, is a fundamental one in Eastern psychology. Under this apparent contradiction in terms, there rests a fact of Nature to realize is the important thing.
A familiar instance of
a similar paradox is afforded by chemical…

EVERY organ and cell in the body has a field, by which it mysteriously networks with every other organ and cell. The heart and gut talk to the brain. And the brain’s holographic networks are due to the noetic fields of its cells and neurons.
The Field is the underlying mechanism of healing, of thought transference, gene behavior, and the way the environment influences us — it is the real “secret” behind the power of intention.…

ANCIENT SAGES taught that this physical world is interpenetrated by a series of increasingly ethereal worlds or fields, composed of energy-substances beyond our range of perception.
The fields closest to us are referred to as the “astral light.” It is already confirmed by science that the fundamental building block of matter is energy. And all physical life, from crystals to the atoms and cells of our body emit this energy in the form of photons—waves and particles of…

The three critical dynamics determining whether the Middle East conflict moves towards peace: US-Israel relations, Israeli compliance with international laws and norms, and the capacity of the Arabs to engage meaningfully in promoting a credible peace process.

One of the most important political dynamics in the Middle East these days is the escalating war of words between the…

THESE ARE transformational times, and new orders of thought based on ancient verities are seen flowering once more.
A growing number of New Thought leaders are fostering a welcome shift in human consciousness.
It is a revolutionary shift. The seeds of change evident throughout the 20th Century, and now in the 21st, were sown in the 19th—sparked by the Theosophical Movement.…

A COMMON SENSE critic of scientific pretensions, who has wit and sanity united to an elevated moral intelligence, is refreshing to the soul.
Such is Mary Midgley, dubbed by the Guardian, January 13, 1971, “the most frightening philosopher in the country”—today, at age 89, she is still receiving accolades, and still taking no prisoners.
Mrs. Midgley, with Blavatskian flair, hits the bulls eye:-
“…the real trouble with the mind-body problem centres on… Continue

“A plant can be receptive or non-receptive, though every plant without an exception feels and has a consciousness of its own. But besides the latter, every plant—from the gigantic tree down to the minutest fern or blade of grass—has, Occultism teaches us, an Elemental entity of which it is the outward…

Ever drifting down the stream–
Lingering in the golden gleam–
Life, what is it but a dream?

WHEN our rational brains are all heated up, arguing life’s complexities, that’s usually the best time to kick off our shoes and give it a rest.
When faced with a critical decision, or stuck on a complex problem,…

SPACE, time, matter and consciousness are omnipresent. But in science, a fundamental problem is created because they are considered independent things—a mistaken starting point for unlocking the nature of reality.
Their view is sustained because “most researchers still believe they can build from one side of nature, the physical, without the other side, the living,” writes Dr. Robert Lanza, in the May, 2009 book Biocentrism:…
