Advantages
Gained
From
This Knowledge
When this knowledge is fully assimilated, it changes
the aspect of life so completely that it would be impossible for me to tabulate
all the advantages which flow from it. I can only mention a few of the
principal lines along which this change is produced, and the reader’s own
thought will, no doubt, supply some of the endless ramifications which are
their necessary consequence.
But it must be understood that no vague knowledge will
be sufficient. Such belief as most men accord to the assertions of their
religions will be quite
useless, since it produces no practical effect in
their lives. But if we believe in these
truths as we do in the other laws of nature – as we believe that fire burns and
that water drowns – then the effect that they produce in our lives is enormous.
For our belief in the laws of Nature is sufficiently
real to induce us to order our lives in accordance with it. Believing that fire
burns, we take every
precaution to
avoid fire; believing that water drowns, we avoid going into water too deep for
us unless we can swim.
Now these beliefs are so definite and real to us
because they are founded on knowledge and illustrated by daily experience; and
the beliefs of the Theosophical student are equally real and definite to him
for exactly the same reason. And that is why we find following from them the
results now to be described:
1.We gain a rational comprehension of life – we know
how we should live and why, and we learn that life is worth living when properly understood.
2.We learn how to govern ourselves, and therefore how
to develop ourselves.
3.We learn how best to help those whom we love, how to
make ourselves useful to all with whom we come into contact, and ultimately to
the whole human race.
4.We learn to view everything from the wider
philosophical standpoint – never from the petty and purely personal side.
Consequently:
5.The troubles of life are no longer so large for us.
6.We have no sense of injustice in connection with our
surroundings or our destiny.
7.We are altogether freed from the fear of death.
8.Our grief in connection with the death of those whom
we love is very greatly mitigated.
9.We gain a totally different view of life after
death, and we understand its place in our evolution.
10.We are altogether free from religious fears or
worry, either for ourselves or for our friends – fears as to the salvation of
the soul, for example.
11.We are no longer troubled by uncertainty as to our
future fate, but live in perfect serenity and perfect fearlessness.
Now let us take these points in detail, and endeavour
briefly to explain them.

Concerns are
raised about the fate of the wildlife as
The Spiritual
Retreat, Tekels Park in Camberley,
Surrey, England
is to be sold to a developer.
Tekels Park is a
50 acre woodland park, purchased
for the Adyar Theosophical Society in England
in 1929.
In addition to
concern about the park, many are
worried about the future of the Tekels Park
Deer
as they are not a
protected species.
Anyone planning a
“Spiritual” stay at the
Tekels Park Guest
House should be aware of the sale.
