White Lotus Day

May 07, 2010 05:42 PM
by MKR


Now it is May 8th morning in India and it is White Lotus Day.

H P Blavatsky passed away on this day and every year TS lodges around the
world celebrate it in remembrance of HPBâs sacrifices for bringing Theosophy
to the modern world. Lives of many have been transformed by exposure to the
doctrines of theosophy and it is but fitting that we remember the Light
Bringer.

These days too much talk is going on, especially in the West about
meditation and allied practices, unseen worlds etc. etc. In here last will,
did HPB tell theosophists to concentrate and meditate on this day in
remembrance of her. No, No.

She wanted parts from Light of Asia (Life of Lord Buddha) and Bhagavat Gita
read on this day and poor people fed.

I think these two are symbolic of the human transformation that is the birth
right of all and the need not to forget our poor brothers and sisters.

Let us all remember HPB and show our gratitude for the knowledge she brought
to the world and benefit by transforming ourselves and benefit Humanity.
