Wisdom, the universal heritage, cannot be confined to a particular region on earth. Almost at the same epoch of the flowering of great philosophies in India, another part of the East, namely China, witnessed the blossoming of great philosophical thinkers. This session will tentatively give a broad outline of Chinese philosophies in the light of theosophy.
Every theosophist is recommended to attend, giving tools for applying the principles in one's life and in introducing the means to lodges or section.
N. Sri Ram, the fifth International President of the Theosophical Society, is noted for his penetrating insight into the serious problems of life and his remarkable lucidity of expression. Life’s Deeper Aspects is a collection of addresses dealing with various vital aspects of modern life. The course will attempt an exploration into the profound vision of life and its problems presented by Sri Ram.

The Theosophical tradition has developed a wealth of teachings about the spiritual life that constitutes a distinctive system of yoga. This path is particularly relevant for today's world, since it is not meant to be tread in retirement but in the midst of our daily life. Some of its prominent practices are study, meditation, purification, self-observation, and service, all of which stimulates a holistic unfoldment of our physical, moral, mental and spiritual nature.
The Session will be directed by Prof. R. C. Tampi, Director of the School of the Wisdom at Adyar and member of the General Council.
The subject of study will be “Ancient Wisdom - Modern Insight” based on the book by Shirley Nicholson. A copy of the book will be provided to each delegate.
