Wesak Celebration
As we normally do, we
will have a talk giving a detailed account of the esoteric Wesak Festival
including a video recording made by an Australian TV station of pilgrims
gathering at the legendary Wesak Valley. Members who have attended
this talk previously may be interested to know that we will be showing
slides indicating what could be the actual location of the Wesak Valley
which is famously thought to be in the vicinity of Mount Kailas. We will
then have a guided group meditation for 49 mins. Come and join this
spiritual celebration. Vegetarian
lunch will be served thereafter as part of the Wesak celebration.
This programme is
restricted to members.

The
Divine Mystery:
Three Realisations on the Path
A talk by our Asst
Secretary, Brandon Goh.
“The journey of the soul
is marked by deepening experiences of the Divine. Although there is
ultimately One Alone, Theosophy unveils three aspects of the Divine: all is
God (Expression), God dwells in all (Immanence) and all lives in
God (Transcendence). With insights from Theosophical and other spiritual
traditions, we will explore some integral disciplines that eventually lead
to experience of these truths.”

Cryptograms, Blinds, and the Hidden Architecture of The Secret Doctrine
A talk by Mario
Ferraro.
“The Secret Doctrine
has long been revered for its breadth and depth of insights, encompassing
Man and the entire Universe. But beneath its surface lie many cryptic
layers.
This lecture invites
fellow Theosophists to explore the possibility that Blavatsky’s magnum opus
is more than a transmission of wisdom: it is an encoded document, carefully
structured to conceal as much as it reveals.
By examining subtle
patterns, linguistic anomalies, and purposeful ambiguities, we will explore
the idea that The Secret Doctrine functions as a kind of initiatic
path, guiding the reader through a process of inner awakening as much as
intellectual engagement. Far from being random, its contradictions,
repetitions, and silences seem to form part of a hidden logic, designed to
train perception and invoke intuition.
Join us for a fresh look
at a familiar text, where meaning is not just found in the words, but in
their arrangement, their omissions, and the spaces between them.”
