Theosophy Whanganui's next hosted public talk is this Sunday, August 13 at 2pm.
Warwick Keys will speak on The Genesis of the Western Mystery Tradition which includes a presentation and 'Q&A' discussion.
It is a subject full of misconceptions and 'fable.' The presentation will trace the roots of the Ancient Wisdom Teachings - the basis of the Mystery Tradition - from Ancient Egypt forward, with connections to the East. It will include references to the development of the Greek Elysian mysteries, the Rosicrucian philosophy and the Masonic orders. A focus will be on an outline of the original Egyptian Mystery Schools and their initiations. The presentation is aimed at providing a forum for discussion. There is much fable and mystery on this subject which has a strong connection to the development of theosophical understandings.
Warwick Keys is a researcher writer and a past NZ Theosophical Society national and branch President. He has given a number of excellent presentations including on his field of particular interest, Egypt.
The venue is the Community Arts Centre, 19 Taupo Quay, back river entrance in Awa room. Free entry (gold coin donation appreciated). Refreshment provided afterwards. Enquiries to Kirsty theosophywhanganui@gmail.com or txt 0212123819.
