Last months spiritual stuff

I try to keep you updated on what I put online elsewhere on the web, when it relates to spirituality and religion. However, since I’ve changed my newsletter technology, it amounts to this: I forget to share the essentials, till it’s time for the next one to come out. I’m fine with that actually, because if you all really want to know as soon as it’s posted, you’ll just have to subscribe to my spiritual newsletter Lucifer7 yourselves.

So here goes. I had quite an active month, as there was a Theosophical World Congress and I found I had a lot to say about that. However, if you were interested in that, you probably already saw it. This is the OTHER stuff I was up to:

I won’t be repeating that exercise often, however in this case it’s really worth it. There are few good books about the history of theosophy in the Netherlands. It’s obviously a niche …

God’s hat – a theology joke
Jul 20, 2010 09:43 am

There were two tribes dwelling near each other. God decided to walk between them. But God wore a two colored hat. One side was red; the other side was blue. So when the two tribes discussed this visit by God, they ended up in argument. “God wore a blue hat. No! God wore a red …

Chocolate Frosting and Garbage, Thubten Chodron Buddhist quote
Jul 14, 2010 09:41 am

Creating Bridges: Spirituality & Philosophy: Spirituality in Daily Life, Bhikshuni Thubten Chodron A kind heart is one of the principal things we are trying to develop. If we run around childishly telling others, “I’m this religion, and you’re that religion. But, mine is better,” it is like turning chocolate frosting into garbage: what was delicious …
