Ahimsa, Prayag Letter & Letter Ten

Mar 29, 2006 05:09 AM
by carlosaveline cardoso aveline



Friends, Cass,

Our central and common point is that true insanity is in the authoritarian use of religion and creed as a mechanism for domination of human minds.

It is unfortunate that in the 1890s the Adyar TS abandoned its task of showing the world the danger of dogmatic religions.

The movement will have to get back to this task, I guess, and to get back to the deeper Philosophy of Theosophy, so that it can, in the next few years and decades, face in a proper way the paralysing challenges it has in front of it right now.

In order to be, or to seem, politically correct, the movement in general got rather paralysed.

Some departed from the teaching through fancies of various kinds. Others put the teaching in the freezer aiming at to preserving it. A third group tries to live the teaching.

These three "groups" are not in "different corporations". Each one of us has these three factors in himself and can enhance the third factor in his own consciousness.


Regards, Carlos.

Carlos
This chap has now asked for and will probably gain asylum outside of Afghanistan. Which indicates he is not so insane. Whether he is insane or not, it still must have taken great courage to revolt against the prevailing religion which advocates death to those who oppose or reject Allah.

Friends,


At the same time, in Afghanistan, a man was about to be condemned to death
(according to the Constitution), for commiting the crime of converting to
Christianity.

It happened in the last few days.

Arrested, Western Countries exerted pressure on Afghanistan. The man has
been just released, oficially because, being crazy, he is not responsible
for what he does. (BBC World and CNN-I, March 28)

In some countries, it is just crazy not to be a Moslem, indeed.

Chuck should send a certified copy of the Prayag Letter ( and of the Letter
10 in the ML) to these people -- including some Christian Evangelists.

Carlos.

oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
