Re: Theos-World RE: thought on the value of theosoophy

Dear Dallas, I read your messages often, and I enjoy them very much.
I wanted to comment on point 2.:

2. Each human being is a MIND. The mind does not die when the
body dies. It reincarnates.

According to my Master, each human being HAS a mnd, which is the
conglomeration of past impressions, due to one's activity as an individual
drop soul - atma. The mind continues to adhere to the individual till all
his impressions are being annihilated due to one's spiritual work/efforts,
and/ or due to the grace of a true Master. The drop soul is not a mind, the
mind causes it to feel separate.
Best wishes, Etzion
