Dear Readers
Leading this month’s AQ is a piece on a new e-study group that is being set up. Its aim is to use the essential elements of the philosophy to shed light on questions such as how to make a healthier transition towards a wiser civilization, how to assess the vitality of the theosophical movement (whose aim is the right development of humanity in all its aspects – the ethical and intellectual, the psychic and the physical) and ways in which this movement can be revivified.
Have a look and contact lutbr@terra.com.br if you would like to participate.

An E-Group Is Being Planned by www.esoteric-philosophy.com
for On-Going Online Research
The blog www.esoteric-philosophy.com and the website www.filosofiaesoterica.com are making preparations to create a new e-group in English language.
The future Yahoo E-group – whose name has not been chosen yet – will be an independent effort in the theosophical movement. Three of its main goals are:
1) To promote the study of the original teachings of modern theosophy;
2) To stimulate an individual search for eternal wisdom, which must be made by self-devised efforts;
3) To help students understand and fulfil their duties as planetary citizens, especially at the occult or essential levels of reality. This must be made through a realization of the Higher Self and a profound conviction of Universal Brotherhood.
The e-group will investigate and discuss topics such as:
a) The actual difference between theosophy and pseudo-theosophy, or the doctrine of the heart and the doctrine of the eye;
b) Effective mechanisms – as suggested by classical theosophical literature – for a healthier transition towards the wiser civilizations which wait for us in the future;
c) The history and the future of theosophical movement, including its dharma and duty as examined from the viewpoint of the original programme set by the true Founders, through H.P. Blavatsky;
d) A realistic assessment of the theosophical movement’s vitality today; and an impersonal search for ways to increase it with a long term perspective, in different countries and languages.
Every student of Theosophy or Esoteric Philosophy is invited to make his or her subscription to the new e-group. It is enough to write to the Editors of www.esoteric-philosophy.com at e-mail lutbr@terra.com.br
The intention of the organizers is also to build an online mechanism to gather students of theosophy, wherever and however situated, who are inclined to cooperate on the basis of a broad similarity of aim, purpose and teaching.
Students for whom English is a second language are especially invited, as with their participation the experience of the e-group will be more widely international. Questions, commentaries and suggestions are welcome any time.
