It also means that the Ancient Wisdom (I call it The Teaching) is older than Theosophy, and while giving rise to Theosophy, did not give it birth, and is not its mother. If Theosophy claims to be its child, that is a matter for opinion, belief, or better, study and research. Alan Alan@ambain.softnet.co.uk http://www.soft.net.uk/ambain/
