The word "Theosophy" means"Divine Wisdom". It refers to the great truths which derive from the cumulative testimony of countless generations of sages and seers. It also provides a framework within which we may search for these truths to gain insight into the meaning and purpose of life.
Theosophy presents a world-view that emphasises the unity and interconnectedness of all life, the basic oneness of all species on earth and of all peoples. It is a philosophy to be understood, not blindly accepted. It is not a religion, though many of its concepts and ideas are found in all the major world religions. In one sense, Theosophy is religion itself, the essence of true religion. Its principles have been stated by seers and sages since the most ancient of time.
