THEOSOPHIC Adopts.
Striking Lecture by a Disciple Of
Nine. BiaVatSky.

The fourth course of lectures given under
the auspices of the Theosophical Society
began at Red Mems Hall last night, the
first lecture being delivered by Mrs. Mercie
NJ. Thirds, journalist of Chicago. The OBJ
jcct of the lectures is to present to inqurers
he fundamental teachings of the0sophy.
The subject selected by Mrs. Thirds was
Adopts" meaning thereby the initiates or
highest opponents of her belief.
Tradition. she said, tells us that in all
ages there have been orders of initiates who
Possessed secret knowledge of things divine.
There WAS n religion for the masses, and n
higher tnnwlo.Ige for those of the inner
circle. Nearly all gre It names of antiquity
were enrolled in these secret orders, names
such rs Buddha, Pythagoras, Confucius,
Plato. Socrates, who with all their schools
were students of theoSnphy. She also
claimed that Christ himself was an initiate.
In modern times she cited Nine. Blavatsky
as the foremost initiate, and paid a high
tribute to her occult powers. She said that
what Nine. Blavatsky had done all can do
who, by proper training and development,
bring themselves into relation with those
finer forces she employs. The speaker
claimed that Nine. Blavatsky is herself the
proof of her teachings and an example of
her doctrines.
The lecturer in pursuing her theme next
stated that an entrance into the universal
lie can only be accomplished by getting rid
of the boundaries of self. ill this is done
no progress Is possible. So long as we draw
about US the walls Of self we cauuot see
what lies beyond. 1t is for this reason that
the first and obligatory law Of theosophy is
universal brotherhood.
1T must not he forgotten" she said, that
theosOphy is not mere intellectual learning.
The adept or initiate becomes, he is not
made. The contemplated progress is not
simply intellectual requirement or intel
lectual development, but consists of a har-
monious elevation of the whole being, and
so'could more properly be called character
development. What man becomes when he
has left the universe behind we can only
CONJECTURE, for we have then lost him in di-
vinity. We can only trace his path and fol-
low in his footsteps until he disappears be-
hind the veil"
In speaking of the new life, she said that
man may at any time begin to SOW better
seed that will bring more desirable harves Is,
but even this will not enable him to escape
the harYests sown in the past. This is the
doctrine of Kama, the law of unerring JUS
tee, which offers explanation of the ryiug
conditions OF human life, such as health ana
disease, intelligence and ignorance virtue
and vice, prosperity and misfortune
In conclusion, the speaker said that as we
use our opportunities for embodiment. 50 Will
he our progress OH that path leading toward
helghtS oil divine knowledge and power.

that The. United States should control what

when compared to the consequence of
