I applaud his decision, but I don't see why his speech should be
considered "one of the most important documents" of the TS. In
fact, Pasadena and ULT don't have much to say about K at all
and could care less about his pathless path. BTW, the idea of
a pathless path is well known in Zen and was not original with
K, nor was his idea of organizations. Organizations, as Zen
teaches, are fingers pointing to Truth, not Truth itself. K would
have us throw away perfectly good pointers.
