ABSTRACT
The study of Theosophy is in its character unique. The Esoteric Science, which is but another name for Theosophy, is at once a complete system of Physics, Ethics, and Metaphysics, demanding the devotion of all the faculties of man for its proper comprehension. The universally admitted relations of the personal ego to objects, usually regarded as external by reason of their non-identity with the self, must be recognized before any scheme can be formulated or means devised for the acquirement of happiness. Having found the object to be made happy in the self, it becomes necessary to examine its nature, so as to discover how to make it happy. The law of Karma is the true order of our personal experience, as seen in the light of that mode of Nature’s manifestation, commonly called Causation. The Great Science is the Science of Eternal Life, the contemplation of which causes the present life to assume its true proportions.
