Happiness Workshop I

A talk by our Asst. Secretary, Brandon Goh.

 

“We go about our daily lives, social rounds, various enjoyments and amusements — to what end? Modern humanity is more comfortable, pleasured and stimulated than ever, but most importantly, more miserable than ever. So many people are on psychiatric medication, while others are reliant on stimulants and drugs. In the midst of this chaotic pursuit of sorrowful pleasure, the Ageless Wisdom can help us recover lost art of happiness and equanimity, if only we allow it. ”

John Coats' father, Ernest Coats, was a director of the old Paisley firm of thread manufacturers J & P Coats now known as the Coats Group PLC. John was well schooled at Eton, in France and Germany. He was introduced into Theosophy at an early age and was a principal assistant to many presidents from G Arundale to N Sri Ram, evetually becoming the 6th International President. From the month of November during the sixth year of his Presidentship, Mr Coats suffered cardiac attacks and died on 26 December 1979 on the opening day of the annual Convention at Adyar.

Necessity for Reincarnation

Choong Chi Pin continues with the second part of his talk on the article of the same title by Annie Besant published as Adyar Pamphlet No.113 in 1920. She says:

 

“...Go down into one of the worst slums of London. Children are born into those slums of vilest parentage; looked at from the point of view of physical heredity, looked at from the moral and intellectual status of father and mother. Now you can tell one of the children of whom I am thinking, a child-criminal, when you see it in the cradle; you know, as you look at that baby form, that that child is doomed to a life of misery and crime. You can tell it by the shape of the head, you can tell by the whole type of the features that that child is a criminal child. And it is true. They are the despair of the educator, as I know who have had to deal with them, as all know who are brought into touch with them. They will not respond to moral appeal, but only to fear, most brutalising of instructors...”
