Welcome to the 2016 Fall Meetings of the Theosophical Society Phoenix Study Group. We have an exciting new line-up scheduled using two books that everyone will find enlightening.
Meetings are held (unless otherwise noted on the schedule) on the first and third Sundays of the month at:
New Vision Center for Spiritual Living,
18010 Tatum Blvd in Phoenix AZ from 1:30-3:30 pm.
The first Sunday of each month will be our First Look Series: “Ageless Wisdom for Modern Times” using the book “Theosophy, a Modern Expression of the Wisdom of the Ages” by Robert Ellwood, available for purchase for $10 (but not required for the course).
These meetings will be of special interest to those who are new to Theosophy as well as long time or former members. Guests will be invited to join us for these meetings that will include a 20-minute introduction designed to provide a first look at major concepts that come from ancient wisdom.
The fee for this class is $15 per class for non-members who will receive a free book if they register for the first 3 classes. (The series fee for members is included in their annual membership fee.)
Notes and questions for the meetings will be provided by Cal Feldman and Clare Goldsberry. Free brochures focusing on a variety of Theosophical topics also will be distributed. Membership information will be provided to those who want to consider joining the Theosophical Society.
For advanced registration, call Clare at 602-996-6499.
The third Sunday of the month is a members-only meeting during which we do in-depth studies on more advanced Theosophical topics. This year we will be studying “The Wisdom of Patanjali’s YOGA SUTRAS” by Ravi Ravindra.
We have a few of Ravi’s books available to members at cost of $10 each, contact Stacia 480-628-8715
