Theos-Talk Archives (October 2011 Message tt00009)

To understand what India is today compared to pre-Independence, all one
needs to do is to visit India and see for themselves. Besant was one of
those who fought for Indian Independence and was elected as President of
Indian National Congress, the first non-Indian to hold that position.

Her activities were, I think, were the result of her commitment to Universal
Brotherhood, which is the cornerstone of theosophy. As a theosophist
recently mentioned to me, this is easy to talk about but very difficult to
practice since it has to come from the heart and not from the head.
Practicing it every day in our daily life will do magic to ourself and those
with whom we interact.
