U
The Theosophical Society
OBJECTS
First. — To form a nucleus of the Universal Brotherhood of Humanity, without distinction of race, creed, sex, caste or color.
Second. — To encourage the study of comparative religion, philosophy and science.
Third. — To investigate unexplained laws of nature and the powers latent in man.
The Theosophical Society is composed of students, be- longing to any religion in the world or to none, who are united by their approval of the above objects, by their wish to remove religious antagonisms and to draw together men of good will, whatsoever their religious opinions, and by their desire to study religious truths and to share the results of their study with others. Their bond of union is not the profession of a common belief, but a common search and aspiration for Truth. They hold that Truth should be sought by study, by reflection, by purity of life, by devotion to high ideals, and they regard Truth as a prize to be striven for, not as a dogma to be imposed by authority. They con- sider that belief should be the result of individual study or intuition, and not its antecedent, and should rest on knowl- edge, not on assertion. They extend tolerance to all, even to the intolerant, not as a privilege they bestow, but as a duty they perform, and they seek to remove ignorance, not to punish it. They see every religion as an expression of the Divine Wisdom, and prefer its study to its condemnation, and its practice to proselytism. Peace is their watchword, as Truth is their aim.
No person 's religious opinions are asked upon his joining, nor is interference with them permitted, but everyone is re- quired to show to the religion of his fellow-members the same respect as he claims for his own. The Society has no dogmas, and therefore no heretics. It does not shut any man out because he does not believe the theosophical teachings. A man may deny every one of them, save that of human Brotherhood, and claim his place and his right within its ranks.
The Theosophical Society was founded in 1875 and con- sists now of National Societies or Sections in twenty-three of the different countries of the world, each with its own General Secretary and its own organization. Mrs. Annie Besant is the International President of the Society. The headquarters of the American Section are at Krotona, Holly- wood, Los Angeles, California, and communications asking for information or regarding membership should be sent there addressed to the General Secretary. A List of the Lodges in America will be forwarded on application.
