Volume XIII, Number 9
Dear Reader,
Greetings.
The July 2013
edition of “The Aquarian Theosophist” is available, and its opening article examines the nature of Serendipity,
the seemingly casual occurrence of happy events. In fact, happiness is not a randomic
event.
What
is the theosophical viewpoint regarding conflicts? Challenges are inevitable: according to the
article “Unity and Contrast in Theosophy”, the higher levels of
perception must accept, live, and transcend the multidimensional paradoxes of
life.
A
unique reflection on human struggle is to be found in Kahlil Gibran’s fragment
“Speaking of the Effort”: “work is love made visible”.
Under
the title “The Place of Miracles”, the talmudic tale about a fierce
polemics between two rabbis, regarding the importance of outer phenomena, helps
clarify the nature of truth and the way to obtain it. The discussion, it must
be said, caused a profound environmental impact, which happened to disappear
right away.
In
his article “Reflections of All”, Kristan Stratos writes: “As we look
into the clear mountain top lake, we see a perfect reflection on the still
waters of the sky above. As we peer into the murky water of a city puddle we
can catch a glimpse of the reflection of ourselves. (…) As we gaze deeply into
ourselves we can see the reflection .... of the entire Kosmos.”
The
note “On Harmlessness and Justice” says that ahimsa is not a
show for the others to see, but an energy of the heart, and often invisible. It
is also a battle that one can win every minute, hour - and decade.
A central point in
the present edition is the essay “Looking Into Oneself -The Autobiographical
Notes of an Indian Theosophist”, by N. C. Ramanujachary.
Having several
books published in Telugu and English, Dr. N. C. Ramanujachary is currently the Joint General
Secretary and Director of Studies for the Indian Section of the (Adyar)
Theosophical Society, which has some 9,000 members. He lives and writes in the
Besant Gardens of the Adyar Compound, in Chennai.
With
15 pp., the July edition includes two illustrated fragments from the
theosophical literature. It concludes with the List of New Articles in www.TheosophyOnline.com and associated
websites.
