About Theosophical Search
Theosophical Search is an application that leverages Google and Bing to enable the searching of online Theosophical resources such as books and websites using keywords or exact phrases.
The results that are returned depend on the selected search engine, selected resources as well as the actual content of the websites.
How to use Theosophical Search
Control Description
Search Text: Enter the keyword or text that you want to search for.
Search Button: Click this button to initiate the search. Pressing the "Enter" key has the same effect as clicking the "Search" button.
Search Result Output: Search results can be directed one of three ways:
- Current Window - Search Results will replace the Theosophical Search page. You can return to the Theosophical Search page by clicking the "Back" button on your browser.
- New Tab - A new tab will be opened for Search results.
Note: Initially, the new tab may be suppressed by the pop-up blocker in your browser. You can enable pop-ups from the Theosophical Search site to avoid this.
Tip: Some browsers such as Chrome or Firefox will update the contents of the new tab each time a new search is executed from the original tab. You may find it helpful to place the tab containing the Theosophical Search page on the left side of your screen and the new tab showing search results on the right side of your screen when executing repetitive searches.

Result type: Select the type of results that you would like the Google search engine to return.
