Individualization on the Moon

Our VP, Tang Kwok Choon, talks about the individualization of the moon animals. He says,

“We have studied the individualized animal and his component bodies.

We had a glimpse of that Individual life living on different planes and the environment.

And how through innumerable incarnations this Individual can grow in spirituality.

But how and when did this individualization take place?

Today we go to the Moon to take a peek.”

The Ending of Violence

A talk by our Asst. Secretary, Brandon Goh.

“What is the real cause of war? Do we really want to end it? Are we willing to wake up to our very own contribution to violence? To see is to act — let us see.”

Damodar

Choong Chi Pin continues his reading of the book Damodar the Pioneer of Theosophical Movement by Sven Eek.

In 1879 Damodar met H. S. Olcott and H. P. Blavatsky in Bombay, after they had just established the Theosophical Society's temporary Indian headquarters there. On August 3, 1879, he joined the Society at Bombay; several of his relatives, including his father and his uncle, also became members. Damodar, however, went a step further, giving up his caste. In 1880, he officially became a Buddhist while in Sri Lanka, taking Pancha Sila along with Col. Olcott and Madame Blavatsky.

Damodar wrote a number of excellent articles for The Theosophist, which were compiled by Sven Eek. The compilation also includes some very interesting correspondence with William Quan Judge, A. P. Sinnett, and Mrs. Josephine W. Cables, of Rochester, New York, and various reports and other documents. He continued his work in this way until February 23, 1885, when he went to Tibet to join his Master.

This month we look at other letters between Damodar and W.Q. Judge.
