Sensing The Soul of Things
THEOSOPHY does not demand acceptance but points to fundamental principles, and how they can be verified and practically applied.
Theosophy is not only a ‘faith’ because faiths are changeable. It is not dependent upon dogma or revelation either, as are modern science and religion, but on verifiable occult records.
The object of Theosophy is to show that all things and beings in nature are intelligent souls in evolution and for human beings the necessity of knowing ourselves — and becoming our own authority, and that of the world, by that realized knowledge.
Theosophy the “Wisdom-Religion” as presented by H. P. Blavatsky and her Masters, has existed from immemorial time. It offers a theory of nature and man which is founded upon knowledge acquired by the wise Sages of the past. It has been expressed in different ages by Krishna, Confucius, and Buddha in the East, by Pythagoras, Plato, and Jesus in the West. Plato wrote about the quest for self-knowledge H. P. Blavatsky wrote: “Plato has expressed the same idea in two lines:
“The light and spirit of the Divinity are the wings of the soul, they raise it to communion with the gods, above this earth — to become like the gods, is to become holy, just and wise. That is the end for which man was created, and that out to be his aim in the acquisition of knowledge.”

“Every one of us possesses the faculty, the interior spiritual sense, known by the name of intuition,” H. P. Blavatsky explains in her The Theosophist article Le Phare De L’Inconnu (Beacon Light of the Unknown):
but how rare are those who know how to develop it! It is only by the aid of this faculty that men can ever see things in their true colours.

The One Absolute Reality
This power is, Blavatsky wrote, is an “instinct of the soul, which grows in us in proportion to the employment we give it — which helps us to perceive and understand the realities of things with far more certainty than the simple use of our senses and exercise of our reason. … there is one absolute Reality which antecedes all manifested, conditioned, being. It is ‘Be-ness’ rather than Being (in Sanskrit, Sat), and is beyond all thought or speculation.
This Infinite and Eternal Cause — is the rootless root of ‘all that was, is, or ever shall be.’
“… the one Reality, is also symbolized by the term ‘The Great Breath,’ a symbol sufficiently graphic to need no further elucidation. Thus, then, the first fundamental axiom of the Secret Doctrine is this metaphysical One Absolute — Be-ness …
The Origin of Consciousness
“Spirit (or Consciousness) and Matter are, however, to be regarded, not as independent realities,” Blavatsky insists, “but as the two facets or aspects of the Absolute (Parabrahm), which constitute the basis of conditioned Being whether subjective or objective.
“Considering this metaphysical triad as the Root from which proceeds all manifestation, the great Breath assumes the character of precosmic Ideation. It is the fons et origo of force and of all individual consciousness, and supplies the guiding intelligence in the vast scheme of cosmic Evolution.”
Intelligent Design and Function
“On the other hand, precosmic root-substance (Mulaprakriti) is that aspect of the Absolute which underlies all the objective planes of Nature.” [The Secret Doctrine Vol.1:14-15]
“The shell only of the spirit, soul and astral body of the Kosmos,” she comments in The Secret Doctrine (1:67), “has now fallen into the hands of Modern Science.”
Physicists now are busy studying that shell in the guise of hypothetical sub-atomic particles.
Example: In their August 3, 2017 article, Scientific American reports “A new technology for detecting neutrinos represents a ‘monumental’ advance for science.”

The “elusive ‘ghost particles’ were detected bouncing off an atom.” Following decades of ‘research’, it seems science is still stuck inside their shell of hypothetical muck.
After more than a hundred years of ‘research’, it seems modern science is still stuck in a shell of hypothetical silly putty.
Using the atom-smashing power of The Large Hadron Collider, scientists hope to unmask the so-called “God particle,” their imagined ultimate substratum of the universe. The accumulation of large amounts of data from collisions, according to physicists, “is crucial to increasing the chances of a discovery.” (!)

Space is not Empty
ATOMS live in a strange world dubbed quantum entanglement where they can be in two places at once. Everything changes at the sub-atomic level, though with science’s limited tools, atoms seem to be mostly ’empty’ space. It’s a seductive place, it seems, where one can free-fall into the unknown fields of an inexplicable universe.
Is there no room for ‘consciousness’ to exist in all that so-called “empty space?”
If atoms or some exotic energetic field underpins all substance, what about something as all-pervasive as water? Almost 90% of our body, like the planet we live on, is water. We are conscious and intelligent like our blue planet Gaia. Many researchers are convinced that water is capable of ‘memory’ by storing information and retrieving it, and research into water is just beginning.
BLAVATSKY: Universal and divine mind is “reflected in the waters of Space,” says ancient Cosmogenesis: “In Absolute Divine Thought,” she wrote, “everything exists, and there has been no time when it did not so exist.”
