Richard:

I would rather say that the "ULT View" is not one of the fascets
of a looking at Theosophical Truth.

If the ULT maintains successfully its objective of "To spread
broadcast the teaching sof theosophy as recorded in the writing
sof HP Blavatsky and WQ Judge it WILL HAVE SERVED ITS PURPOSE.

ULT is not a "progressive" body although there are those who make
progress individually.  ULT sustains and maintains the accuracy
and the purity of the THEOSOPHICAL PRESENTATION which we owe to
HPB, WQJ and to Others.

If this effort to become wise within those paramenters is not
appreciated, I think one is missing the point.  Everyone is
creative.  Everyone desire to reach out and seek the
companionship of brother souls benton a common task.  But if the
tasks are not COMMON, what we find is a diversion.

Here is where the self-tetherd attitude of the ULT has value.
Like the ever-invisible "pole" around which the Earth spins, so
THEOSOPHY is the ever-invisible but also ever life-giving CENTER.

Yes, HPB's words are valuable as a starting point and every
student has individually to start there.  There can be no surot
cuts, no authorities on which to rely.  Each is forced back to
being his own authority, and thinking out the principles offered.

Then ULT, Adyar Point Loma, Paadena, etc., etc., allmerge back
into the SOURCE.  All differences then vanish.

Is this harsh on personalities ? Yes, butit no more than asking
if 2 and 3 make 5 or 55 ? There is no sentiment involved.  If one
desires to exchange ideas as Manasic mening, then the shadiow of
personal opinion must go.

This is not to recommend that anyone ought to be rejected because
of some expressed opinion, but rather that additional time be
taken to analyse and place a true value of such OPINIONS.  Is not
THEOSOPHY the honest tochstome which provedes a true response ?
