Intro to Theosophy Part 3 ~ Deity, Cosmos and Man
Intro to Theosophy Part 3 ~ Deity, Cosmos and Man
**When:** Tuesdays, 7:00 PM - 9:00 PM, Winter/Spring 2026 **Where:** 792 Glencairn Ave., Toronto, ON **Attend online via Zoom:** https://us02web.zoom.us/j/89671983431?pwd=hoYVrQG1EF4ibvIieyTnavmXxWcy5h.1 **Main Text:** [Deity, Cosmos and Man](https://www.theosophy.world/sites/default/files/ebooks/DeityCosmosAndMan_GFarthing.pdf) by Geoffrey Farthing If the above link is broken, paste this into bar for free PDF: https://www.theosophy.world/sites/default/files/ebooks/DeityCosmosAndMan_GFarthing.pdf This third part of our **Intro to Theosophy** series turns to *Deity, Cosmos and Man* by Geoffrey Farthing, a clear and reliable guide to the foundational teachings of Theosophy as originally presented by **Helena Petrovna Blavatsky** and her Adept teachers. This study explores a living, intelligent universe governed by unity, law, and vast evolutionary cycles, and examines how the human being reflects these same cosmic principles within their own inner constitution. Emphasis is placed on Theosophy not as a belief system, but as a coherent body of knowledge—offering insight into consciousness, post-death states, hierarchies of beings, and the deeper purpose of human evolution. Alongside discussion and reflection, the group will explore guided experiential exercises designed to support awareness, perception, and integration. The intention is to: * Develop a clear understanding of core Theosophical principles * Explore the relationship between cosmos, consciousness, and the human constitution * Encourage experiential insight alongside study and dialogue * Support inner balance, discernment, and conscious self-development This class is suitable for: * Students continuing from Parts 1 and 2 of the Intro to Theosophy series * Those interested in Theosophy, cosmology, and human evolution * Participants seeking a grounded, psychologically oriented approach to spiritual study * Anyone curious about consciousness, meditation, and the deeper structure of reality No prior experience with Theosophy, yoga, or meditation is required—only curiosity, openness, and a willingness to explore thoughtfully.

[in-person] Meditation - Mississauga
**What we are About:** *If Sufism is defined as mystical or the way of the mystic, then its message addresses all peoples, not just the followers of one religion.* If you feel drawn toward deeper connection—within yourself, in your relationships, or along your spiritual path. The ‘School of Sufi Teaching’ extends a warm welcome with humility, and love to all seekers of truth who feel drawn toward inner awakening and the timeless wisdom of the Sufi tradition. Our introductory gatherings offer an opportunity to experience the gentle blessings of traditional, time‑honored meditation practices passed down through an unbroken lineage. Some Sufis practice whirling, while others chant loud recitation (Zikr). At Sufi School we follow the classical practice of silent, contemplative meditation. Seated together as a group, we direct our hearts toward the Holy Essence, cultivating an atmosphere of stillness, inward reflection, and subtle spiritual presence. **Event details** (bi-weekly sessions): 7:00 - 7.15 pm Introduction for beginners 7:15 - 7:45 pm ‘Silent Meditation’ (Muraqabah) 7:45 - 8:10 pm Q&A **Location:** Mississauga Valley Community Centre (Frank Bean Lounge). This group is led by dedicated volunteers, and all sessions are offered at no cost. By choosing to attend, you acknowledge that participation is completely voluntary and at your own risk.

Teachers of the highest order. These are the ECK Masters. Chief among them is the Mᴀʜᴀɴᴛᴀ, the Living ECK Master. As an inner and outer spiritual teacher, his role is to awaken the God-knowledge already within you. This discussion, following an earlier online and in-person ECK Light and Sound Service, features a pre-recorded talk by Sri Doug Kunin, the spiritual leader of Eckankar, followed by facilitated breakout discussions. *"It’s the same eternal mission for every Living ECK Master: to awaken the God-knowledge already within the human heart. To help people become aware of who they really are – Soul, a unique, eternal, divine spark of God."* **\~ Sri Doug Kunin**, Spiritual Leader of Eckankar This series of discussions enables you to meet with like-minded, like-hearted, spiritually oriented co-learners who want to raise their spiritual IQ, not only to access higher states of positivity and balance, but also to add tools to their spiritual toolkit that help them function with more love, grace, and service in daily life. *"Eckankar already has students in 120 countries. While many people may not know about us, we have a global presence. Eckankar is not here to convert anyone. We honour individual choice and belief. Do the ECK tools and techniques help you find truth? Only you can decide.* *But even as a wide variety of our digital communications are expanding Eckankar’s worldwide presence, it’s not about the quantity of people we reach, but the quality of connection.* *Eckankar is only as good as its ability to help people connect with the divine principle. Are we able to do that in a way anyone can understand and apply? That’s key."* **\~ Sri Doug Kunin,** Spiritual Leader of Eckankar **Donations** These are free events; however, your donations are most gratefully received!

What Can I Do? Invoking Our Sacred Warrior Inner Archetype
What Can I Do? Invoking Our Sacred Warrior Inner Archetype
**Sunday\, April 19\, 2026 \| 7:00 PM** (doors open 6:45 PM) **Hybrid Event —** in person at Toronto Theosophical Society, 792 Glencairn Ave., North York **Join online via Zoom:** [https://us02web.zoom.us/j/88064619247?pwd=0WvJAiLDKyQXu6bi0UmlMOkgjmVg59.1](https://us02web.zoom.us/j/88064619247?pwd=0WvJAiLDKyQXu6bi0UmlMOkgjmVg59.1) Free and open to the public **What Can I Do? Invoking our Sacred Warrior Archetype** In times of collective suffering and moral uncertainty, it's easy to fall into helplessness, rage, or inconsolable grief — responses that are deeply understandable, yet quietly paralyzing. This evening, we turn to a more demanding and more fruitful question: **What is *my* place in the work of personal and collective renewal?** We'll explore this question across four interconnected dimensions: * inner psychological work, * spiritual practice as service, * authentic relational dialogue, and * practical action in the world. Each of these plays a distinct role in the broader process of healing — and the evening is designed to show how they reinforce and complete one another. Rather than staying purely in the realm of ideas, we'll move into direct experience. The highlight of the evening will be a hands-on introduction to KORASOMI — a synthesis of the Korason Method for Authentic Voice & Dialogue and Hakomi — a mindfulness- and somatic-based practice for invoking the "Sacred Warrior" archetype within each of us. Through conscious sound, authentic movement, and chakra work, Hugh will guide us in learning a technique you can take home and continue to practice on your own. Underlying the whole evening is a simple but radical invitation: to refuse dehumanization, to act without hatred, and to understand that rebuilding integrity — personal or collective — is work each of us carries a small but real portion of. **About the speaker:** Hugh Smiley has been walking a path of inner inquiry, healing, and service for over four decades. His journey began early — shaped by his father's healing hands, a classical music training that led to his ARCT from the Royal Conservatory of Toronto at 17, and a deepening interest in spiritual and metaphysical studies that ignited during his university years, including a budding fascination with esoteric astrology. A pivotal chapter unfolded while living among indigenous peoples in Paraguay, where Hugh began meditating in nature and developed a healing practice rooted in shamanic chanting, bodywork, knowledge of the chakras, and the subtle bodies. This synthesis eventually gave rise to the Korason Method for Authentic Voice and Dialogue — a body-based, heart-centred approach to authentic expression and deep listening that he has since taught in 10 countries across 4 continents. Hugh trained directly with Ron Kurtz, founder of the Hakomi Method — a somatic-oriented, mindfulness-based approach to assisted self-discovery — becoming certified as both therapist and teacher. His therapeutic work weaves together Hakomi, the Korason Method, dreamwork, shamanic journey, gestalt, and an understanding of the subtle anatomy, creating a rich inner landscape for healing and self-knowledge. In 1988, following an inner vision, Hugh co-created Heartsong Hill — a 50-acre forested retreat on Georgian Bay — where eight years of transformative teaching and learning unfolded. He later completed a degree in Peace and Conflict Studies at the University of Toronto, and was awarded the Beattie Scholarship to research dialogue methods with NGOs in Cairo, which led to the founding of NACAD, the New AndaLuz Centre for Authentic Dialogue. He is currently supporting youth peace-building efforts with the ROHI Foundation in Cameroon. Hugh continues to offer counselling, creative voicework, and meditation coaching in Toronto, and leads a biweekly Mindful Circle online. His life's work is a living example of how inner transformation and outer service are not separate — but two expressions of the same journey.
