The Ocean of Theosophy

Theosophy is that ocean of knowledge which leads to wisdom about God. It is a religion with a scientific foundation. Embracing both the scientific and the religious advancement, Theosophy is a scientific religion and a religious science. It is not a belief or dogma formulated or invented by man, but it is a knowledge of the laws which govern the evolution of physical, astral, psychical and intellectual constituents of nature and of man. The teaching of Theosophy deals for the present chiefly with our earth, although its purview extends to all the worlds, since no part of the manifested universe is outside the single body of laws which operate upon us. The book contains seventeen chapters describing different major aspects of Theosophy with the aim to give clear and intelligible view to the average reader. It includes: Theosophy and the masters; General principles; the Earth chain; Septenary constitution of man; Body and Astral Body; Kama-desire; Manas; Reincarnation and its supporting arguments; Karma; Kama Loka; Devachan-a state of Atma-Buddhi-Manas; Cycles-reappearance of former living personages; Differentiation of species-missing links; Psychic laws, forces, and phenomena; and Psychic phenomena; and spiritualism.
