So what is Theosophy anyway
?
The word is derived from Ancient Greek and means
“Divine Wisdom”. This doesn’t tell us much and a more practical definition
might be “The Study of Existence”.
Within the Theosophical Society, this study of
existence goes beyond the remit of scientific study and also investigates
metaphysical and religious ideas in addition to what would be termed occult
phenomena and paranormal powers.
Theosophy also has a more specific meaning within the
Theosophical Society and refers to the ideas about the coming into existence of
man and the universe presented for consideration by Helena Petrovna
Blavatsky in her definitive work, The Secret Doctrine, and in her other
writings.
Blavatsky’s ideas were based principally on Brahminical Hinduism and Esoteric Buddhism and her mission
was to interpret eastern religious thought for the western mind.

from the Writings of
Helena
Petrovna Blavatsky
The Secret Doctrine , Volume 2, Page 100
It is only by the attractive force of the contrasts
that the two opposites — Spirit and Matter — can be cemented together on
Earth, and, smelted in the fire of self-conscious experience and suffering, find
themselves wedded in Eternity.
The Secret Doctrine , Volume 2, Page 108
It is the motive, and the motive alone, which makes
any exercise of power become black, malignant, or white, beneficent Magic. It is
impossible to employ spiritual forces if there is the slightest tinge of
selfishness remaining in the operator .... The powers and forces of animal
nature can equally be used by the selfish and revengeful, as by the unselfish
and the all-forgiving; the powers and forces of spirit lend themselves only to
the perfectly pure in heart — and this is Divine Magic.
Isis Unveiled,
Volume 1, Page 36

Even ignorance is better than
Head-learning with no Soul-wisdom to illuminate and guide it.
