A partial view of a painting by Carl Bloch (1834-1890)
Classic theosophy says the New Testament should not be read literally, or on a superficial dead-letter level. The very Gospels suggest the same idea.
The truth expressed by parables, myths and legends is deeper than merely material facts. The narrative of the miraculous birth of Jesus, for instance, symbolizes the process of the first great Initiation, not his material birth. The teaching is true, but not its dead-letter interpretation.

The Royal Botanic Garden, Peradeniya, home to more than 4,000 species of plants and trees, is a place not to be missed if you find yourself in Kandy
Green all the way.
In the central province of Sri Lanka, just five to six kilometres west of the city of Kandy, lies the green and serene Royal Botanic Garden, Peradeniya. Home to more than 4,000 species of trees, spices, flowers and medicinal plants, the Royal Botanic Garden is spread over 147 acres. The garden is around two centuries old.
It was formally established in 1843, though the groundwork was laid back in 1821 and the origins of the garden go back to the times of King Wickramabahu III who set up his court here near the famous Mahaweli River – which is the largest river in Sri Lanka – in year 1371 after ascending the throne.
