RE: Theos-World Manasa-putras SONS OF THE UNIVERSAL MENTAL FACULTY MAHAT

Dear Clint:

The mind can be used in any way you decide.  However there is a vast
difference between information and knowledge that is to be used as a
basis for discriminative wisdom.

The basis for all theosophical philosophy is to be found in the SECRET
DOCTRINE between pages 14 and 19 Vol. 1.

Most briefly it says:

1. SPIRIT is universal and there is no Personal god of any kind.

2.  The entire Universe runs by a single Law of justice and harmony
that affords every being
	an opportunity to live and develop into a man and then into an
all-knowing Wise One.

	There is no way in which anyone can reverse evil by prayer and
penance, unless the
	attempt is made to redress a wrong directly to those who were
injured.

	Selfishness and a desire to be isolated and enjoy an irresponsible
condition is the source of 	all evil.

3.  Evolution is therefore entirely fair and open to all who decide to
take advantage of the
	opportunities offered freely by Nature which is the DEITY UNIVERSAL.

In one sentence the Law of Life is:  do for others that which you
would like them to do for you.
	All the rest is commentary.

Dear Dallas,

         The following is your reply to someone regarding Whatever,
and
amazingly enouph it only consisted of 20-30 lines (1K of reading).   I
really appreciate your stores of knowledge, but I must let you know
that when I look at my in-box and see a posting from you over 5K, I
just delete it, as it takes so much time to read and usually I don't
have a clue what your writing.

          Please edit.
