Dallas, I am sure that you recall Judge's remark to the
effect that Theosophy is like a wide ocean with "unfathomable
depths" but shallow on the shores to allow even children to
understand. I think that this fact is the cause of any real
problems we are having on this list. Some of us are
still on the shore, while others have swum pretty deep.

We could say that karma and reincarnation are two of "the
fundamentals" but as I have tried to show, while these
concepts are rather simplistic on the surface they are
practically unfathomable in their depths.
