Convention 2024

127th National Convention of the Theosophical Society in NZ Inc.

 

 OUR MYSTERY

Exploring the Journey of the Soul

11 – 16 January 2024

At the Scenic Hotel Cotswold, Christchurch

Come and join us as we explore together to deepen our understanding of the Mystery of which we are all a part. Why are we here? What is our part to play? How do we open ourselves to the possibilities hidden within? What can we learn from others? This theme is at the very heart of Theosophy. We look forward to sharing together the journey of discovery.
