Theosophy

 

            
             Theosophy is a way of thinking that mirrors many forms of philosophical thought. It combines metaphysics and ethics to feed the mind by ways of reviving soul-memories, developing spiritual intuition and expanding the creative imagination. Theosophy serves to bridge the gap between religion and science. It does so by exploring both religion and science and to search for the principles of nature common to both. It explains things suck as how nature works, why things are the way they are, and what must be achieved in the goal of life. Vaughan gives a definition of Theosophy to be " a theosophist is one who gives you a theory of God, or the works of God, which has not revelation, but an inspiration of his own for its basis." What this means is that God and his doings can be explained individually. These meanings don't come from sacred scriptures or visions from God himself. It is made clear by personal experiences and interpretations. In order to draw these conclusions on!.
             e must explore both religion and science to brig their minds to a higher level of thinking. Theosophy gives guiding principles that can be achieved through continuing development of the mind. A Theosophist doesn't see God as an actual being. It is like the ultimate consciousness. An all-knowing and all-powerful force that governs everything. All consciousnesses are striving to become part of this force. A theosophist lives his or her life totally devoted to theosophy, with hopes of moving up a level in consciousness. The only way to do this is to live your life for the good of the community. It is through the prosperity of others that you will become elevated. In a loose sense of the term, Communism can be considered a form of Theosophy, for in both societies everyone is working for a common good. Basically the main idea of this religion, which really isn't a religion at all (I will explain this later), is that the consciousness will move up in the hierarchy of things as it gains experience and pure knowledge by working with and for others.
