The term “Theosophy” comes from the Greek “theosophia,” which is composed of two words, “theos” meaning “God,” and “sophia” meaning “wisdom.” It can thus be translated as “wisdom about God” or “divine wisdom.” In this sense, a Theosophist is a seeker of divine wisdom.

The Theosophical worldview emphasizes oneness – the idea that the entire universe, including each one of us, shares a profound unity with everything else, so that whatever affects one affects all. It says that we are all on a spiritual pilgrimage to realize this oneness through loving relationships, living in harmony with nature, and service to the greater good.
