Theosophy and Modern Thought

Beschreibung

Theosophy and Modern Thought is a book written by C. Jinarajadasa that explores the intersection of theosophy and modern philosophical and scientific thought. Theosophy is a spiritual philosophy that emphasizes the unity of all things and the interconnectedness of the universe. In this book, Jinarajadasa examines how theosophy can shed light on modern scientific and philosophical ideas such as quantum mechanics, relativity, and the theory of evolution. He also discusses theosophical concepts such as karma, reincarnation, and the spiritual evolution of humanity. The book is aimed at those interested in spirituality, philosophy, and science, and seeks to bridge the gap between these seemingly disparate fields of study. Overall, Theosophy and Modern Thought offers a unique perspective on the relationship between spirituality and science in the modern world.1915. Four lectures on theosophy.
