Along with Jerry S., I can say that I strongly doubt Pasadena has an esoteric
section any longer.  I am friends with Grace Knoche, Will Thackara, Alan
Donant, and other leaders at their headquarters, and I have asked them
privately and sincerely if there were now such a thing.  They assured me there
was not.

Beyond this, all I can say is that if a group of individuals chooses to study
privately by themselves, what business is it of mine?  Is the subject of
"esotericism" interesting only because it is secret?  I would not feel
comfortable invading someone's private study and trying to publicize it.
