The Hague builds international
bridge on ancient Wisdom

What do we really need to know to have an educated opinion about complex issues such as healthcare and education? This summer the Museum for Communication in The Hague is the stage for an international meeting of science, philosophy and religion. The goal of this year’s Conference is to present the synthesis between these three and apply them to the problems and challenges that we face today. Lectures, panel discussions and workshops by an international group of speakers will challenge your way of thinking.

The INTERNATIONAL THEOSOPHY CONFERENCE 2010 “Making Theosophy a Living Power in the World” will be held on 12-15 August in the Museum for Communication, Zeestraat 82, The Hague,
The Netherlands.
Working language will be English.
No entrance fee is required.

What is Theosophy?
The name Theosophy stems from the Greek ‘Theos’ and ‘Sophia’ meaning Divine Wisdom. Theosophy, also called the Secret Doctrine or Esoteric Philosophy, embodies the principles of morality, with directives for human thought and action.
The teachings are not based upon belief, but upon knowledge.
Theosophy stimulates independent thinking and the search for truth while combining science, philosophy and religion. In this way it gives explanations as to the how, why and whereto of life.

Aim of this Conference
The need for teachings such as the essential unity of all living beings remains significant in today’s world. This Conference thus aims to present wisdom as it is intended: to help people meet their challenges in life. Ancient and universal teachings will be used to shine a different perspective on the problems that we face today, and supply us with hands-on tools to overcome them.

Program
The Conference theme “Making Theosophy a Living Power in the World” inspired Theosophists from all over the world to send their proposals, categorized in the following subthemes:
* Theosophy – Inner Wisdom: from Principle to Practice
* Health and Harmony, Spiritual and Physical
* Theosophic Education: Wisdom, Insight and Practice
* Compassion in Action
