OK - so why not try to discuss the above?  There is the material from
Tillett's book, and the 1906-1908 problems, which present a negative
view in terms of the period concerned, whilst at the same time there are
many students who have found Leadbeater's *writings* useful, if at
times (!) inaccurate.

What are or were these alleged to be?  Are they important to esoteric
studies as such?

In the words of the I Ching, "Perseverance furthers."  Try again?

No - *how do we get out of it* !!
