SUBJECT:  ". . . . I do agree with most of their [HPB's Masters']
teachings (sex being a prominent exception) . . ."

Jerry, you wrote some time ago:

"And many of these schools teach conflicting ideas (about sex, for
example). HPB's Masters were only one such school. But I do agree with
most of their teachings (sex being a prominent exception)."

I quoted this with other material in my first posting on Tantric sex,
karmamudra, etc. hoping that you would elucidate in some detail your
thoughts on why you disagree with HPB's Masters about their teaching on
"sex." Exactly what is their teaching on this subject as you understand
it and exactly why do you disagree?  Even more important, if you think
you have a better grasp of the subject than they do, why do you think
HPB's Masters held such outdated (?), untrue (?) or unenlightened (?)
"views"?  And how does all of the preceding relate to, for example, John
Powers' treatment of "karmamudra" in the Tibetan Budhhist tradition,
especially in the Gelukpa tradition?
