These selected paragraphs distill the contents and give you a quick look inside Evolution of Life and Form - Four lectures delivered at the twenty-third anniversary - meeting of the Theosophical Society at Adyar, Madras, 1898: Look inside the book: Who can read the history of Roger Bacon, the wondrous monk; who can picture Copernicus on his death-bed as his immortal work is brought to him ere yet his eyes are closed, he having shrunk from earlier publication, lest the stake should be his portion; who can stand in the Field of Flowers in Rome, and see there the statue erected where he was burned to death, who dying in one century, lives for all centuries to comeーGiordano Bruno; who can listen to Galileo, as with faltering lips he denies the truth he knows and utters the falsehood that he knows not; who can follow these martyr-steps, led on by bitter memories of blood and fire, without understanding the reason for the hostility of science to religion, without confessing with shame and sorrow that that hostility was caused and was justified by the cruelties wreaked by religion on science, when science was young and feeble? ...They really lead their lives as48 recognising the part that is played in the world by the angelic hosts, and not only do they regard the Archangels as the great rulers of animated natureーthe seven chief Archangels taking the place of the seven Gods in other faithsーbut they also recognise the lower host of angels as concerned continually in administering natural laws, in guiding human evolution; and indeed they go so far as to say that every individual man is in special charge of a guardian angel, who ministers to him from the cradle to the grave, who tries to help him in danger, to advise him in temptation, to protect him in peril, to ward off all the evils levelled against him, and who, helping him through the gateway of death, accompanies him on the other side through the invisible world, until he surrenders up his charge into the hands of Christ Himself. ... What he does is, that instead of regarding the world as superintended by an extra-kosmic God, separated as it were from His universe, with a mighty gulf existing between Him and it, he sees in ?shvara the manifestation of the one Life that pervades and sustains all, he sees in ?shvara the one Root out of which all separated existences spring; and he sees, stretching between himself and that Supreme, innumerable hosts of Intelligences, step after step, rank after rank, and he looks to climbing up that celestial ladder until he also stands at its very top; for he knows that he also is divine, although as yet in an early stage of evolution, and he recognises the more highly evolved divinity above him, as he recognises the divinity in the stone beneath his feet, in everything that exists in this universe of God. About Annie Besant, the Author: In 1909, soon after Besant's assumption of the presidency, Leadbeater 'discovered' fourteen-year-old Jiddu Krishnamurti (1895?1986), a South Indian boy who had been living next to the headquarters of the Theosophical Society at Adyar, and declared him the probable 'vehicle'画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。
