Parabrahman (Absoluteness) is the One and Only Reality, an unthinkable and unspeakable state of Ultimate Subjectivity. Ishvara is Conscious Universal Mind (Second Logos), not the personal God and Master. Vishishtadvaita Philosophy in a nutshell. 1 The Vishishtadvaitis are a sect of Vedantins; refusing to accept dualism, they place willy-nilly the origin of evil and good in Parabrahman. 2 They believe that the sun-souls attract lost earth-souls, and direct them to the path that leads to Nirvana. 3 They refer to Advaitis as Buddhists in disguise. 4 Refined Vishishtadvaitism is Ancient Magianism. Madame Blavatsky comments on the non-dualistic philosophy of Vishishtadvaita, and distinction between Impersonal and Personal God. With key metaphysical concepts by the Series Editor.

An offering to those who, though may be enlightened on some special point of science, take upon themselves the right of pronouncing arbitrarily their judgment on all things; and are ready to reject everything new which shocks their ideas, often for the sole reason that if it were true they could not remain ignorant of it!

Since the mind of every religionist of whatever faith, is firmly impressed with the superiority of his own creed, his mind is firmly closed to the truths of other beliefs. This is the root-cause of sectarianism and intolerance. Theosophists, instead of preaching they own religion, they implore everyone to first study his own and remain in it, whatever it is — for Theosophy is not only compatible with every religion, nay, being the pristine stream from the Mother-Source, it is the informing life and creed of all religions — pure and convincing in its simplicity. While modern science has no knowledge of an “Intelligent Being” or “Spirit,” the science of metaphysics rejects entirely the possibility of the Infinite having any relation whatsoever with the finite, whether conscious or otherwise.

The Bible is a tale sublime in its morality and didactics, truly — still, a tale and an allegory. Its fables are ingeniously concealed verities that are revealed only to those who, like the Initiates, have a key to their inner, esoteric meaning. It is a mere repertory of invented personages in its older Jewish portions, and of dark sayings and parables in its later additions, and thus quite misleading to anyone ignorant of its Esotericism. The Christian Holy Book is Astrolatry and Sabæan worship, pure and simple, that is to be found in the Pentateuch — when read exoterically — and Archaic Science and Astronomy to a most wonderful degree — when interpreted in the light of Eastern Occultism.
