Overview

ENQUIRERS attracted to Theosophy by its central doctrine of the Brotherhood of Man, and by the hopes it holds out of wider knowledge and of Spiritual growth, are apt to be repelled when they make their first attempt to come info closer acquaintance with it, by the to them strange and puzzling names which flow glibly from the lips of Theosophists)n conference assembled.They hear a tangle of Atma-Buddhi, Kama-Manas, Triad, Devachan, Linga Sharira, and what not, and feel at once that for them Theosophy is far too abstruse a study. Yet they might have become very good Theosophists, had not their initial enthusiasm been quenched with the douche of Sanskrit terms.In the present manual the smoking flax shall be more tenderly treated, and one Sanskrit name at a time shall be the most that shall be flung in the face of the enquirer. As a matter of fact, the use of these terms has become general amongTheosophists because the English language has no equivalents for them, and a long and clumsy sentence has to be used in their stead, if the idea is to be conveyed at all.
