Sunday Afternoon Public Programs
October 23, 3:00 pm  •  Presented by Nancy Secrest

Living Theosophy requires that we live each day recognizing the Oneness of all life, inherent in the First Object of the Theosophical Society, through compassionate action and selfless service. This talk explores the teachings of Helena Petrovna Blavatsky and Annie Besant on altruism, compassion and service. It answers the questions, what is compassion, how is it related to our Buddhi nature and how can we express it in the world?

Nancy Secrest began studying metaphysics and comparative religion in childhood. She encountered Theosophy in her early twenties and joined the Theosophical Society in 1980. Nancy currently serves as the Western District Director of the Theosophical Society in America and has held the positions of National Secretary and National Treasurer of the Society. Nancy is also the International Secretary of the Theosophical Order of Service (TOS) and the current President of the TOS in America.
