Introducing Theosophy
Vision - Mission - Ethics - Principles
The Theosophical Society in America:
- has a vision of wholeness that inspires a fellowship united in study, meditation, and service.
- encourages open-minded inquiry into world religions, philosophy, science, and the arts in order to understand the wisdom of the ages, respect the unity of all life, and help people explore spiritual self-transformation.
- holds that our every action, feeling, and thought affects all other beings and that each of us is capable of and responsible for contributing to the benefit of the whole.
Not only does the Society have a vision of union with one another, and a mission of exploration, but also an ethic of putting these high ideals into action.
We invite you to explore with us and join us in the great adventure. Membership in the Theosophical Society is open to those who are in sympathy with its three Objects.
The three declared Objects of the Theosophical Society are:
- To form a nucleus of the universal brotherhood of humanity, without distinction of race, creed, sex, caste, or color.
- To encourage the comparative study of religion, philosophy, and science.
- To investigate unexplained laws of nature and the powers latent in humanity.
