Theosophical Society in Detroit
Our Mission
The Theosophical Society in Detroit encourages open-minded inquiry into world religions, philosophy, science, and the arts in order to understand the wisdom of the ages, respect the unity of all life, and help people explore spiritual transformation.
​
Since its founding in 1875, the Theosophical Society has stood for freedom of thought and respect for all people. To join the Society, you are required to have no specific beliefs, only to state your agreement with the Society's three Objects:
​​
The Three Objects of the Theosophical Society are:
-
To form a nucleus of the Universal Brotherhood of Humanity, without distinction of race, creed, sex, caste or color.​
-
To encourage the comparative study of religion, philosophy and science.
-
To investigate unexplained laws of Nature and the powers latent in man.
We further our understanding of theosophical (or spiritual) ideas through on-going programs.
Friday programs offer a variety of interesting lectures, presentations, and facilitated videos.
Did you miss a Friday Night talk? Many of our presentations are now being recorded, and are on YouTube.

“It is said that whenever we practice Dharma it should always be pervaded by compassion at all times – in the beginning, in the middle, and at the end of our practice. Compassion is the source, the real essence of the entire path.”
- Khenpo Appey Rinpoche
