Re: Esoteric Truth

Hi Ariel,

That may be true, but on the other hand, with more knowledge comes the
ability to act from a more 'safe' position, because the foundation of
right action is found. Through trying among other things. 

To quote HPB:
'There is a road, steep and thorny, beset with perils of every kind,
but yet a road, and it leads to the very heart of the Universe: I can
tell you how to find those who will show you the secret gateway that
opens inward only, and closes fast behind the neophyte for evermore.
There is no danger that dauntless courage cannot conquer; there is no
trial that spotless purity cannot pass through; there is no difficulty
that strong intellect cannot surmount. For those who win onwards there
is reward past all telling -- the power to bless and save humanity;
for those who fail, there are other lives in which success may come.'
(BCW 13:219)
