"This _Yajna_ is again one of the forms of the _akasa_; and the mystic word calling it into existence and p.r.o.nounced mentally by the initiated Priest is the Lost Word receiving impulse through WILL POWER."--_Isis Unveiled_, Vol. I. Introduction. See _Aitareya Brahmana_, Haug.
[D] Those who would feel inclined to see three _Egos_ in one man will show themselves unable to perceive the metaphysical meaning.
Man is a trinity composed of Body, Soul and Spirit; but _man_ is nevertheless _one_ and is surely not his body. It is the latter which is the property, the transitory clothing of the man. The three "Egos" are MAN in his three aspects on the astral, intellectual or psychic, and the Spiritual planes, or states.
[E] Nitro-glycerin has found its way even into medical compounds. Physicians and druggists are vying with the Anarchists in their endeavors to destroy the surplus of mankind. The famous chocolate tablets against dyspepsia are said to contain nitro-glycerin! They may save, but they can kill still more easily.
_There is No Religion Higher than Truth_
The Universal Brotherhood and Theosophical Society
_Established for the benefit of the people of the earth & all creatures_
OBJECTS
This BROTHERHOOD is part of a great and universal movement which has been active in all ages.
This Organization declares that Brotherhood is a fact in Nature. Its princ.i.p.al purpose is to teach Brotherhood, demonstrate that it is a fact in nature and make it a living power in the life of humanity.
Its subsidiary purpose is to study ancient and modern religions, science, philosophy and art; to investigate the laws of nature and the divine powers in man.
The Universal Brotherhood and Theosophical Society, founded by H.P. Blavatsky at New York, 1875, continued after her death under the leadership of the co-founder, William Q. Judge, and now under the leadership of their successor, Katherine Tingley, has its Headquarters at the International Theosophical Center, Point Loma, California.
This Organization is not in any way connected with nor does it endorse any other societies using the name of Theosophy.
The Universal Brotherhood and Theosophical Society welcomes to membership all who truly love their fellow men and desire the eradication of the evils caused by the barriers of race, creed, caste or color, which have so long impeded human progress; to all sincere lovers of truth and to all who aspire to higher and better things than the mere pleasures and interests of a worldly life, and are prepared to do all in their power to make Brotherhood a living energy in the life of humanity, its various departments offer unlimited opportunities.
The whole work of the Organization is under the direction of the Leader and Official Head, Katherine Tingley, as outlined in the Const.i.tution.
Do not fail to profit by the following:
It is a regrettable fact that many people use the name of Theosophy and of our Organization for self-interest, as also that of H.P.
Blavatsky, the Foundress, to attract attention to themselves and to gain public support. This they do in private and public speech and in publications, also by lecturing throughout the country. Without being in any way connected with the Universal Brotherhood and Theosophical Society, in many cases they permit it to be inferred that they are, thus misleading the public, and many honest inquirers are hence led away from the truths of Theosophy as presented by H.P. Blavatsky and her successors, William Q. Judge and Katherine Tingley, and practically exemplified in their Theosophical work for the uplifting of humanity.
