2013 School of Theosophy, New Zealand

Theme: New Beginnings -- Exploring New Learning Experiences for the Dynamic Sharing of Theosophy

4-7 July 2013, Auckland

Providing new insights into the sharing of Theosophical knowledge to others. Theosophy members are all, ultimately, ‘students and teachers’. As teachers we are more likely to ‘guide’ rather than ‘teach’, providing opportunities to understand rather than delivering information. The 2013 School of Theosophy investigates new perspectives and approaches to the sharing of Theosophical knowledge.

(Last Date for Registration: 22 June 2013)

Theme: Our Potential for Change...

16-22 January 2014, Auckland

We talk about change in our lives – and in the role of the Society – but have we a clear idea of what the change is? Do we really want to change and know what is involved, and the insights, tools and resources needed?
