The Human Journey: Quest for Self-Transformation is a lecture given by Joy Mills at the Annual Convention of the Theosophical Society in England, 27 May 1978. The following article is a lightly edited version of the booklet that was produced from this lecture.
The Theosophical Society has the unique role as Keeper and Sharer of the Ageless Wisdom. and through the public sharing of the sacred teachings,enriched by contemporary experience they become relevant to the lives of communities.
Theosophy presents a world view that emphasises the unity and interconnectedness of all life. It is a philosophy to be understood, not blindly accepted. Its principles have been stated by seers and sages since the most ancient times.
On the human spiritual journey many powers are developed including the various aspects of psychism. Often called extra-sensory perception, psychism may best be understood by comparing it with spirituality.
Death can be seen as a positive experience, if it is not thought of as an ending. A concept of immortality seems to be the solution to what otherwise creates a sense of despair.
