Nos Retep
Aspirant (for Life)
Actually I'm not really the new guy in the Temple. I've sent an email the the E.D. and haven't heard back yet. I figure he's busy but in the meantime I found this forum and thought I'd ask you guys some of my questions too. Let me know what's 'safe' to ask or whatever.
First off, I've been reading Theosophy for years now and in the library on the Temple's site, one of the posts had a mention against Karma. I do believe in Karma but not as such a direct credit type system. I believe that Karma is a tool of our manifestations that we dont consciously control. My understanding is based on our choices creating our next experience. This next experience isnt always what we intended or what we would choose had we understood the outcome of the choice but the cause was still the same. I took this as similar to Xeper but I could be way off base. Could you explain a bit more the differences between Karma, choice, and Xeper?
Also, was it wrong to reply to the Executive Director's email by his first name?
Thanks
