Jerry, I referred primarily to the difficult situation on the turn of the
century when the White Lodge and the Black Lodge had the great fightings.
HPB and Judge referred to that several times when say hoped to bring the TS
over the turn of the century. Also KT who played the major role in that
fight against the dark influences referred to that circumstances also
several times. And the danger was not only outside the TS but the more
INSIDE. Referring to that situation does not mean that psychism was not
present in the decades prior.

Why? It comes from own study of Judge's works  and own experiences.
The sexual link to Buddhist Tantricism was not withheld, easily because HPB
had no such connections.
The more as Buddhistic Tantrica has nothing to do with sex. So you confuse
it with Indian Tantrica or is that a new teaching of Pasadena?

Very interesting statement, this. Now I understand better what Pasadena
thinks and teaches about the E.S. and why the E.S. was disconnected from the
Conger/Long Society. From that point of view it what the best to cancel the
E.S. members. But it is not the direction of the Masters, HPB down to GdeP.
OTOH everyone is free to believe what he likes. As you are privy to HPB's
teachings you are surely able to explain me the matter of HPB's sexual
links. Thank you very much in advance.
