You are exactly right when writing this. There seems to be an
invisible
etheric barrier to what can be written and said at each time.

Having read your mail I turned my attention to a book that I am
reading.

43. To a certain degree, the difficulty of understanding is due
to the
limitations of the earthly language. All the symbols and higher
concepts
are conventionalized to an absurd degree. When man observed
something
beyond the limits of daily life, he began to speak of it in vague
and
unusual terms, which meant something entirely different to his
neighbor. To
this were added the anomalies of sight, taste, and hearing,
resulting in a
complete babel. When man attempted to express the supreme
Hierarchic
Concept, he tried to string together the best syllables and only
achieved
extreme confusion. Notice that everyone who speaks about a
transcendental
concept meets with the most surprising explanations. People
frequently
speak about the same thing, but in such different terms that
there is no
possibility of reconciling these concepts with words. Then, do
not tire
yourself .....

79. It may be asked in what relation Our Teaching stands to the
one already
given by Us through Blavatsky. Answer that each century, after
the
manifestation of a detailed exposition, a conclusive culmination
is given,
which actually moves the world, along the line of humanness.
Thus, Our
Teaching includes the "Secret Doctrine" of Blavatsky. Similarly ,
Christianity was the culmination of the world wisdom of the
classic epoch,
and the Commandments of Moses were the culmination of that of
ancient Egypt
and Babylon. However, the significance of the ramiform Teachings
must be
understood. It is hoped that people not only read Our books.....
