Are you sure that you read and study HPB? You assign one accomplishment to
her when she has had many. HPB would never agree with you to ignore
statements about the "invisible." She made many herself. You don't do
justice to her by just taking her "observable realities" when she spoke and
wrote so nobly of things we could not possibly know if it were not for her
work and THE SECRET DOCTRINE. The way we know HPB and her work is by living
it and by thinking it and practicing. Her work with the races of man,
rounds, and globes cannot ever be proved as you insist is so necessary. But
we can live by it.
