  INTERNATIONAL THEOSOPHY CONFERENCE 
 


The 15th Annual International Theosophy Conference

  

 H. P. Blavatsky and the Eternal Secret Doctrine    

August 8 - 11, 2013

This will be a landmark conference where we enhance our continuing dialogue between Theosophists from many different traditions and countries.   

 

Renowned and well-versed speakers with a solid Theosophical background will explore the Conference theme intensively, and in addition we are pleased to announce that Dean Radin Ph.D., has confirmed to be one of our guest speakers. He will investigate a topic in which many Theosophists show a keen interest. Radin is Senior Scientist at the Institute of Noetic Sciences (IONS) and is one of the most prominent investigators in the field of psi. He will share his newest findings and talk about his most recent book Supernormal: Science, yoga, and the evidence for extraordinary psychic abilities. Further program details will follow.

Where: The Bohemian National Hall, 321 E 73rd St., New York, NY 10021

Lodging: The Pod 51 Hotel, 230 East 51st Street NYC, NY 10022.

Interviews with Dan Smolla   

Have you ever considered the concept of soul mates? In "How I Became a Theosophist," Pablo Minniti and Elena Daval Santos discuss life as a Theosophical couple, their possible future incarnation together, what Theosophy means to them, how they came to Theosophy, and more.

"Do not be afraid of your difficulties. Do not wish you could be
in other circumstances than you are. For when you have made
the best of an adversity, it becomes the stepping stone
to a splendid opportunity."
