At the age of 16, she married a much older man, and some months later began more than 20 years of extensive travel, bringing her into contact with mystic traditions the world over. The travels provided a basis for Madame Blavatsky’s claim to have studied for seven years under Hindu mahatmas (masters) in the East. She traveled several times to Tibet, which at that time was practically inaccessible to foreigners.<\/p>\n

– H. P. Blavatsky Quotes –<\/b><\/p>\n
It is this pernicious doctrine of ever relying upon extraneous help that leads to the collapse – physical, mental, moral, and spiritual – of well-meaning, but weak and unbalanced minds. It slays the patient of the mesmerizer and the mental healer, the neophyte of the sorcerer, and the dilettante of Reform.<\/strong> Have faith in your soul power, and you will have success.<\/strong> If coming events are said to cast their shadows before, past events cannot fall to leave their impress behind them.<\/strong> Neither success nor safety is to be found outside self-development.<\/strong> To seek to achieve political reforms before we have effected a reform in human nature, is like putting new wine into old bottles.<\/strong> The Universe is the periodical manifestation of this unknown Absolute Essence.<\/strong> Before the Soul can hear, the image (man) has to become as deaf to roarings as to whispers, to cries of bellowing elephants as to the silvery buzzing of the golden fire-fly.<\/strong> Before the soul can see, the Harmony within must be attained, and fleshly eyes be rendered blind to all illusion.<\/strong> When he has ceased to hear the many, he may discern the ONE — the inner sound which kills the outer.<\/strong> Before that path is entered, thou must destroy thy lunar body, cleanse thy mind-body and make clean thy heart.<\/strong> The Universe is worked and guided from within outwards.<\/strong> The man who does not go through his appointed work in life\u2014has lived in vain.<\/strong> Before the soul can comprehend and may remember, she must unto the Silent Speaker be united just as the form to which the clay is modelled, is first united with the potter’s mind. For then the soul will hear, and will remember. And then to the inner ear will speak.<\/strong> The chief difficulty which prevents men of science from believing in divine as well as in nature Spirits is their materialism.<\/strong> In order to become the knower of ALL SELF thou hast first of self to be the knower.” To reach the knowledge of that self, thou hast to give up Self to Non-Self, Being to Non-Being..<\/strong> The wise ones tarry not in pleasure-grounds of senses; the wise ones heed not the sweet-tongued voices of illusion.<\/strong> Help Nature and work on with her; and Nature will regard thee as one of her creators and make obeisance.<\/strong> The Secret Doctrine is the common property of the countless millions of men born under various climates, in times with which History refuses to deal, and to which esoteric teachings assign dates incompatible with the theories of Geology and Anthropology.<\/strong> Everything that is, was, and will be, eternally IS, even the countless forms, which are finite and perishable only in their objective, not in their ideal Form.<\/strong> It is, then, by those shadows of the hoary Past and their fantastic silhouettes on the external screen of every religion and philosophy, that we can, by checking them as we go along, and comparing them, trace out finally the body that produced them.<\/strong> The wheel of the good Law moves swiftly on. It grinds by night and day. The worthless husks it drives from out the golden grain, the refuse from the flour.<\/strong> Even in our day, science suspects beyond the Polar seas, at the very circle of the Arctic Pole, the existence of a sea which never freezes and a continent which is ever green.<\/strong> Sow kindly acts and thou shalt reap their fruition. Inaction in a deed of mercy becomes an action in a deadly sin.<\/strong> Becoming is the mode of activity of the uncreate deity.<\/strong> As no outward motion or change, when normal, in man’s external body can take place unless provoked by an inward impulse, given through one of the three functions named, so with the external or manifested Universe.<\/strong> Every Theosophist \u2026 is bound to do his utmost to help \u2026 every wise and well-considered social effort which has for its object the amelioration of the condition of the poor.<\/strong> Help the poor, but pity the ignorant rich.<\/strong> We see that every external motion, act, gesture, whether voluntary or mechanical, organic or mental, is produced and preceded by internal feeling or emotion, will or volition, and thought or mind.<\/strong> It is on the acceptance or rejection of the theory of the Unity of all in Nature, in its ultimate Essence, that mainly rests the belief or unbelief in the existence around us of other conscious beings besides the Spirits of the Dead.<\/strong> The Occultists, however, know that the traditions of Esoteric Philosophy must be the right ones, simply because they are the most logical, and reconcile every difficulty.<\/strong> Everything in the Universe, throughout all its kingdoms, is conscious: i.e., endowed with a consciousness of its own kind and on its own plane of perception.<\/strong> But the first differentiation of its reflection in the manifested World is purely Spiritual, and the Beings generated in it are not endowed with a consciousness that has any relation to the one we conceive of.<\/strong> Yet, the Universe is real enough to the conscious beings in it, which are as unreal as it is itself.<\/strong> Follow the wheel of life; follow the wheel of duty to race and kin, to friend and foe, and close thy mind to pleasures as to pain.<\/strong> The whole order of nature evinces a progressive march towards a higher life.<\/strong> To live to benefit mankind is the first step. To practise the six glorious virtues is the second.<\/strong> When to the World’s turmoil thy budding soul (5) lends ear; when to the roaring voice of the great illusion thy Soul responds (6) when frightened at the sight of the hot tears of pain, when deafened by the cries of distress, thy soul withdraws like the shy turtle.<\/strong> <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" At the age of 16, she married a much older man, and some months later began more than 20 years of extensive travel, bringing her into contact with mystic traditions the world over.
