Freedom as the keynote of spiritual living:

Quote:

Deeply sensible of the Titanic struggle that is now in progress between materialism and the spiritual aspirations of mankind, our constant endeavor has been to gather into our several chapters, like weapons into armories, every fact and argument that can be used to aid the latter in defeating the former. Sickly and deformed child as it now is, the materialism of To-Day is born of the brutal Yesterday.

There is no copyright issue from a book published in 1877. Please restore the quote.

WE HAVE no dogmas or creeds in the Theosophical Society nor in its work; and thus it is that we have Hindu Theosophists, and Buddhist Theosophists, and Christian Theosophists, and Mohammedan Theosophists, and Jewish Theosophists, as well as other Theosophists who belong to no religion - except to Theosophy as the RELIGION of religions. Hence it is our bounden duty to cultivate in our hearts the spirit of brotherly love towards all however much they may differ from us in philosophical and religious or scientific opinions; but while we are thus absolutely free as members in our choice of religion and philosophy, we all hold to the primeval pre-requisite of a Theosophist, which is a belief in Universal Brotherhood and an adherence to the sublime ethics which Theosophy teaches.

Look around you, my friend: see the “three poisons” raging within the heart of men — anger, greed, delusion, and the five obscurities — envy, passion, vacillation, sloth, and unbelief — ever preventing them seeing truth. They will never get rid of the pollution of their vain, wicked hearts, nor perceive the spiritual portion of themselves.

It is true that a man cannot force himself at once into a new will and into a new belief, but by thinking much on the same thing he soon gets a new will and a new belief, and from it will come strength and also light. Try this plan.
