Yes, the beauty of the place did come through. Thank you for your thoughtful post, I have always wondered what the place looked like! Can you tell my why the name was changed from Huizen? :-) Lara-May

we don't pay, we don't sell but we give!!! Only we pay for our internet account and the one more than the other, that is our free choice. Now I know my choices for what I use my hardly earned money.

I don't know you. True. I only know what you told me personally and the style of your writings in a theosophical context. I do agree with everybody who told me here that I went overboard. I've deleted all personal comments I made in this thread. ...

This summer I spent nearly a month at the ITC in Naarden to work in the library there. I had a lovely time. I'm happy to report that the interpersonal atmosphere has improved greatly, compared to a few years ago when I was also a regular volunteer there.

Like the whole TS, the ITC is in transition. Last weekend there was a 'friends… Continue

Time for excuses

Hi all,

Reading about dharma wars online - among Buddhist teachers who teach online - made me realize that I've crossed a few lines myself over here. I've deleted the most offensive comments (which never included the names of those involved), and there isn't more that I can do but apologize to everybody.

I do think though it's time for a more general lesson about this. I hope it's clear that I'm preaching to mys… Continue

Let's have some fun with trivia quizes :)

Squidoo has created a template for online quizes that I've been having some fun with. So test out if you really practice the second object of the TS by studying religion, by taking my quiz about religion in general. Or whether you know enough about the largest world religion: Christianity. Perhaps a bit closer to home: I also made… Continue

You are believing Reincarnation which is not truth. Some people like untruths oftenly as they are afraid of death. I think you are one of them

Hoi Katinka,

dankje voor je reactie op mijn page. Nederlands gaat me op elk geval beter van de hand als het Engelsh.

Leuk dat er nog iemand is van Nederland. Ik had gehoopt dat het een Nederlandse Community zou bestaan. Ook omdat er in Amsterdam dacht ik de theosophische bibliothek gevestigd is.

Maat dat was niet zo en maakt ook niet uit, omdat ik zo mijn engelsh kan verbeteren hahahah

Liefe groeten
Holger

Thank you for adding me as a friend. Your page is full of info! Wow!
I was reading your post about chanting Aum. I do this in meditation but I also do it while in the shower. My youngest is 5, and one day she was in the shower with me. When I Aum in the shower I see it in 'waves' of energy cleaning my home. Most of it is silent in my mind and the last Aum, my closing Aum so to speak is said aloud. When I did that she looked at me and said, "Mom is goes everywhere, in the whole house." And put her hands out to show me it it got bigger and bigger. Ha ha ha.
Thank you for all the wonderful reading!
Much love to you!
Angie

Hi Katinka,

It seems that in first attempt I didn't put the reply on the right place.

Thanks for kind reception and I hope that I don't look too scary. I am looking forward for fruithful discussions.

Warmest regards,
Anton

I'm busy. Can't believe I'm saying that as I just quit college, but it's true. Probably a good sign :)
