Upcoming Events at TS HQ
ORIGIN AND DEVELOPMENT OF EASTERN MYSTICISM
12 February 2012  Sunday  18:00 - 19:30
Jenny Baker
Mysticism is the doctrine of the mystics who seek direct communion with the Divine. It is the contemplation of the essential mysteries of life and the study of spiritual experiences. Although mysticism is not a religion it has strong connections with faiths. This talk will explore mysticism from its Shamanic origins through Hinduism, Taoism, Buddhism and Zen and show how these religions have produced some amazing mystics through the ages.

Jenny Baker has been a teacher of yoga for more than 20 years and is Director of the Foundation for Theosophical Studies Summer School.

H. P. BLAVATSKY AND THE APOCALYPSE
19 February 2012  Sunday  18:00 - 19:30
Colin Price
speaker The book of the Revelation of St John the Divine which concludes the bible is written in a powerful apocalyptic style so that the reader is virtually lost without a key. Many guesses have been made as to its true meaning down the centuries. H P Blavatsky reveals the esoteric meaning and origin of many analogies in her various commentaries.

Colin Price is former National President of the Theosophical Society in England and is great exponent of the core teachings of Helena Petrovna Blavatsky.
