PSYCHISM BASHING

Far from "bashing" HPB does a tremendous job in ISIS, her
Articles, and the S D in EXPLAINING IT.

If we insist on not studying what she and the Masters offer on
the subject, how can we know if we use such powers wisely ? How
do we know what actual dangers lie there, and how to meet them,
or to "protect" ourselves.

If Theosophy issues many CAUTIONS, it is not for any other reason
than to give us due and early warning.

I feel that ought to we cleared up. Without knowledge we are in
danger.

In the days of HPB there was Spiritualism which largely consisted
in the "Worship of the Dear Departed." and, also Spiritualists
hoped to be able to "contact the Spirit" of those "Dear
Departed."

The facts concerning the Astral Plane and Kama-loca that
Theosophy speaks of in detail were not palatable to the
Spiritualists of those days, and hence the did not want to
consider that what Theosophy offered could be true.

The same problem continues today. Without information and some
consideration those who "visit" the "spiritual (?) plane" of
"channel" are in a great deal of danger.

And that's about all. I do have a number of pretty good
quotations culled from various Theosophical sources for anyone
who is interested in reviewing them -- on this subject.

 Best wishes, Dallas
