Welcome to the Theosophical Society in England
The word Theosophy has been used for many centuries, it is of Greek origin meaning Wisdom of the Gods (theo – of Gods, sophia– wisdom). Wisdom cannot be enclosed within words, it is a Truth which must be discovered and experienced by each one for themselves. Theosophy, sometimes known as the Ageless Wisdom, is the Light which shines through the many coloured lamps of religion. It is the thread of truth in scriptures, creeds, symbols, myths and rituals. Divine Wisdom is One, the paths towards it are many.

Comets & Cosmic Origins of Life – Chandra Wickramasinghe
Comets were feared by most ancient cultures as the bringers of life and death. This lecture argues that this ancient point of view is
turning out to be correct. Evidence from astronomy, space exploration, molecular biology, and geology is converging on the Hoyle-Wickramasinghe theory that life is a cosmic phenomenon. The first life was brought to Earth by impacting comets 4.1-4.2 billion years ago, and continuing injections of genetic material from comets led to the evolution and diversity of life.
Chandra Wickramasinghe is an internationally renowned astronomer who has made pioneering contributions to the theory of cosmic dust. Click here to read more.
