THEOSOPHY CANADA


DEDICATED TO THE PROMOTION OF THE ORIGINAL PROGRAMME


The modern Theosophical Society was founded in New York City in 1875. On
September 7th of that year, following a lecture by George H. Felt at the
apartment of Helena Petrovna Blavatsky, Colonel H.S. Olcott proposed the
establishment of a new Society. As H.P. Blavatsky had been sent to America to
found such an entity, one can assume where the inspiration for his proposal had
come. The following day, on September 8th, interested parties attended an
organizational meeting whose official minutes were signed by the chairman H.S.
Olcott and the secretary William Quan Judge. These two along with H.P. Blavatsky
are regarded as the principal founders of the Society. The Theosophical Society
was officially launched November 17, 1875 with a public lecture delivered by its
new president, H.S. Olcott.

Theosophy Canada is a website of Edmonton Theosophical Society. Edmonton
Theosophical Society is an official non-profit charitable organization that has
been active in Edmonton, AB, Canada since 1911. It is dedicated to the promotion
of the original programme of the Theosophical Society.

This programme follows these three objects:

 1. To form a nucleus of the Universal Brotherhood of Humanity without
    distinction of race, creed, sex, caste or colour.
 2. To encourage the study of comparative religion, philosophy and science.
 3. To investigate the unexplained laws of nature and powers latent in man.

Theosophy "[a]lthough it contains by derivation the name God and thus may seem
at first sight to embrace religion alone, it does not neglect science, for it is
the science of sciences and therefore has been called the wisdom religion...
Embracing both the scientific and the religious, Theosophy is a scientific
religion and a religious science" (W.Q. Judge, The Ocean of Theosophy, page 1).
Edmonton Theosophical Society follows the teachings of this Wisdom-Religion
which embrace both Western and Eastern traditions.

At its most basic level, the original programme embraces the study of Man and
his place in the Universe.

Edmonton Theosophical Society also adheres to the original motto of the Society:
"There is no Religion higher than Truth". Although the modern theosophy has its
own written doctrine, the blind belief in that doctrine is in no way endorsed.
The original programme of the Society is fiercely protective of the independent
inquiry and beliefs of its individual members, with the understanding that
members conduct themselves in accordance with the first object of the Society on
their own individual journeys to Truth. The original programme also safeguards
the independence of its member lodges. Each lodge is free to conduct its affairs
as it sees fit and pursue whatever special projects it feels compelled to
complete without interference from any outside agency. Edmonton Theosophical
Society invites all other independent lodges dedicated to the original programme
to inquire about linking with us in a global association of independent lodges.
If your lodge is so interested, please contact us.


Man's Violation of the Concept of Oneness
Science, religion and philosophy have wrestled with the “Concept of Oneness” for
centuries, primarily, because it cannot be grasped or proven by intellect alone.
Intellect, the masculine element is based mainly on our five senses. However,
within the oneness ‒ that permeates manifestation through perpetual emanations
from the Absolute ‒ is contained its complementary feminine, intuitive element
within the soul.


Ted G. Davy
Teddie Gerald Davy, better known as Ted, was born September 6, 1926, in Great
Yarmouth, a seaside town in Norfolk. Read more of Ted Davy's personal biography

Kabbalah and Theosophy
Kabbalah and Theosophy, in reality, represent two interpretations or
representations of the same inner, mystical teachings of the universal, ancient
wisdom religion, even though Theosophy is generally being referred to as having
an Eastern source, whereas Kabbalah is being considered the Western equivalent,
based on the mystical "mouth to ear" teachings of the Hebrews, dating back to
13th century Spain (Moses de Leon), but more likely derived from the ancient
"Chaldean Book of Numbers" (626 BC) or earlier Eastern scriptures.
