Aphorisms as seed-thoughts

 Subsequent to our discussion on seed-thoughts, another great example of seed-thouht I think is an aphorism. The complete agni-yoga series of books by Roerichs are aphorisms of Ethical living (and give Ray 1 flavour of fiery will to the yoga of synthesis). Similarly the temple aphorisms of Francia A. La Due give a Ray 5 flavour of occult science to the works of H.P. Blavatsky and William Q. Judge. We quote those aphorims (as seed-thoughts) from temple teachings of Master H. (with his image): 


"Days come and days go, but if thou watchest thou shalt see:


THE LOAD thou hast laid on the heart of a friend will God transfer to thine own heart; heavy as it presses on the heart of thy friend, heavier will it press on thine own heart in the days to come.


THE STONE thou hast cast from the path of the blind will smite the adder lying in wait for thee.


THE WEIGHT thou hast clamped on the feet of another will drag thine own feet into Hadean desolation.


THE SHELTER thou hast given the wayfarer will protect thee from the fiercest of life’s storms.


THE JEWEL thou hast stolen from the strong-box of another will burn and torture the breast wherein it is hid.


THE BREAD thou hast given the hungry holds the substance of many loaves for thee.


THE LIE whereby thou hast gained an end will eat out thine own vitals.


THE TEARS thou drawest from others’ eyes will mark deep furrows down thine own face.


THE SHOE-LATCH thou hast fastened for the halt and lame will bind the hands of thine enemies.


THE FIRE thou dost feed to scorch another will consume thee in its flames.


THE LAW of right can ne’er be thwarted long.


THAT WHICH thou hast sown, that shalt thou gather, whether it be in joy or sorrow, pain or peace.


THOU MAYEST plan the hour of planting — the hour of gathering must needs be struck by the hand of God.


I have said."

A synthesis of Savitri and Theosophy - Painting No 9

 "A glamour from unreached transcendences Iridescent with the glory of the Unseen, A message from the unknown immortal Light Ablaze upon creation’s quivering edge, Dawn built her aura of magnificent hues And buried its seed of grandeur in the hours." An occult meditation with a theosophical perspective: In these lines, Sri Aurobindo renders a captivating mood of a magical Dawn. It has an allure of inaccessible supremacy and is glittering with Unseen glory. There appears to be a message from an eternal Light, on fire upon a shivering rim. A splendid atmosphere with glorious tones seems as if the Dawn has planted its seed of splendour that will sprout in hours into a majestic day. The painting attempts to reproduce that magical Dawn. As stated previously, a Dawn might refer to any general beginning, an illustration in theosophy being a manvantara (manu/Ray 1 + anatara/gap or distance) generally valid from a microcosm (atomic life) to a macrocosm (man, planet, solar system and s...

Esoteric astrology & psychology of Alexander Grothendieck part 1

A disciple from the inner ashram of Hilarion (Ray 5) I am trying to discern here energetic (seven rays) pattern in Grothendieck's esoterically challenging life through perspectives offered by Esoteric Astrology, Psychology and the Science of Seven Rays. The exoteric life details of this great disciple can be found on Grothendieck Circle Website, which will be the reference for the exoteric facts of this post. 1. Grothendieck (born in Germany) remained stateless throughout his life but choose to settle in a country (France) whose Soul Ray is fifth and Personality ray is Third reflecting his estimated ray profile through my research. 2. I hypothesize that Grothendieck subconsciously responded to energies from the Avatar of Synthesis by influencing the work of Saunders Maclane giving rise to a foundational branch (although he didn't give first definition of a category) of Mathematics called Category theory which is precisely the synthesis of entire mathematics (not yet fully ackno...
