Theosophical nonsense is a term which describes spiritual ideology which resorts to any of the following:
•Astral travel
•Life after death
•Ascended masters
•Heavenly hierarchies
•Extraordinary abilities
•Miraculous happenings
Whether or not any of these things happen, all of them are not one bit closer to the truth than you are right now. Not one little bit.
Even if it were all true exactly as Bailey described it, it would still be not one eeny, tiny little bit closer to the truth.
All the hulabaloo about life after death, angels who guide us, gurus who enlighten with a look, or one's burgeoning 'spiritual' abilities only distract from the immediate truth of your own being.
It's like we need to walk around the world to find out what we were looking for was right under our own bed. The transdimensional stuff just makes this walk that much longer, whether or not any of it is actually true.
