THE THEOsOPHIsTs.
DR.. G. r. Mohn of Los Angeles was the
speaker at the regular public meeting of
the Pasadena branch of the Theosophi-
cal society of America this evening
at he board of trade rooms. Miss Pierce
favored the audience with two violin
solos, very nicely played. DR.. Mohn took
for his subject Practical Theosophy, and
made clear to the interested audience
what theosophy means, though not
much ground can be covered in one ad-
dress upon subject so vast AS Will
lam @. Judge has well defined 1t, The
osophy Is that ocean of knowledge which
spreads from shore to shore of the evo-
luton of sentient beings; unfathomable
in it's d. pest parts, its gives the great
est minds their fullest scope, yet, shall
low enough at it's Shores 1t will not
overwhelm the understanding of
child"
Even a little knowledge of theosophy
teaches us that there is something in
our nature akin to the divine, the abso-
lutte, and that by continual effort and
aspiration we shall one day be able
to function on higher plane than the
material, and there manifest ourselves.
This can only be done by subduing the
lower animal nature. Thus wh are
taught to practice unself1shness and re-
nuiciation, even In the little things of
life. Because theosophy teaches the
unity of all. 1t develops in us feeling
of sympathy and. kindness for all our
fellow creatures. TO be a theosophist is
to try and help our fellows at all times
If in no other way, by throwing out
kindly thoughts to them. Theosophy
teaches US that the duty we owe the
world should not be neglected and that
we owe to ourselves as we'll as to others
the duty Of keeping our thoughts pure
and true and devoted to high ideals.
while we cherisheympathy and kindness
for all.
