trusty lieutenants lieu-tenants hailed Mrs TIngley as a deliverer de-liverer On tho evening of her advent she gave a large reception In which nil classes of society were represented represent-ed For the nonce she eschewed all the mystic phrases which English Theosophlsts had 80 long listened to from Mrs Hesant and at once got I down to a practical basis by explaining explain-ing the principles of education carried out at Point Lomn She spoke with enthusiasm en-thusiasm even with eloquence and her well nuxllmlated and musical voice and flashing eyes held her audience with rapt attention She said among other things Tho great feature of all successful work Is organization The organization organiza-tion of the llajn Yoga system of education edu-cation has been the production of remarkable re-markable results which I believe are superior to those achieved by education educa-tion on ordinary lines Duty Is the first principle taught but Its benefit Is taught with understanding Willie the practical side of life Is not disregarded disre-garded advancement to It Is taught by nn understanding of what may be achieved by beauty sweetness and light Her First Shot at Mrs Besant The organization Is not In any way associated with the society with whIch Mrs Annlo Hesant Is connected I hold that Theosophy is based on common com-mon sense Is practical and can be applied ap-plied to everyday life and whenever one Js found teaching to the contrary and theorizing without giving the practical demonstration that person Is not necessarily to be rolled upon asa as-a teacher or benefactor Ambition and love of power may be more to such n ono than tho claims of humnnit > When Mine Hlavatsky first started her great movement she appealed to all classes of minds but some of her teachings havo been unfortunately distorted by fanatics In spite of the untiring efforts of Mine Hlavatsky and William Q Judgo her successor there are still those teaching Theosophy Theoso-phy who according to my philosophy confuse tho public mind Thus are the simple and beautiful teachings of Theosophy The-osophy obscured and rendered Inef foctle when applied to practical life Lively Times Looked For Thus Irs Tlngloy delivered her first shot I at Mrs Recant and for tho memory of Mr Judge So far no ro < ply has been made Tho silence however how-ever Is regarded as a calm before tho I storm for Mrs Hesant still has ad heicnts in London who look upon Mrs Tlngley as n usurper and Mrs Hesants strong hand Is certainly certain-ly I a knowledge of Indian mystical lore of which knowledge tho Theoso phlsts of Point Lorna ore said to bo dellclent Lively times may therefore there-fore bo expected when word comes I from Mrs Hesant that tho Mahatmas are lighting on her side Meanwhile Mrs Tlngloy has ro palled to tho former Herbert resIdence < resI-dence to tho Now Forest which now Rives the appearance of a caravanserai caravan-serai In the wilderness It Is on a ed that you will be able to got your children In so an outoftheway and lonely spot ns that of the Old House In tho New Forest Why not she answered musically musical-ly It cannot he lonelier than Point Loma was when wo started Why the jack rabbits and snakes were still thom and the place was a tropical desert Now there ate 100 children at school there and 1500 applications to handAnd And how Is tho teaching of Theosophy to be applied to the children chil-dren The Application to Children Oh it is difficult to say It Is to study children to sympathize with them and to enter Into their amusements amuse-ments and their sorrows to enfold them In ones arms to make mud pies and build castles and palaces and fortresses fort-resses with them to ride over tho moon on a broom to teach them to love music and colors and flowers and sunshine and to play with them at being kings and queens Then you see they grow up to bo kings and queens real kings and queens Besides her brief speech In tho mansion man-sion In St Johns Wood Mrs Tlngley has prepared for those of theosoph Icnl turn of mind n little statement In winch the question How May One Become a Theosophist and What Is Hequired of a Believer Is answered It has a sting in It for Mrs Hesaut It reads as follows First 1 a careful study of tho self and the recognition of both tho higher and the lower nature of malla recog nltlon that man Is divine and In es senco that he has power to govern tho lower selfish nature by Urn higher the divine principle within us ThIs requires selfstudy and selfconquest which gradually tiansforui tho temple which has become Impure and perverted per-verted to a fit tabernacle for tho spirit A man is a transmitter of elth er good or evil and only by self knowledge and selfcontrol can either bo enhanced or mitigated |
