Theos-Talk Archives (February 2000 Message tt00048)

Dear Peter,

Thankyou very much.  You didn't type all this out of a book did you?  Is
there a copy of the Secret Doctrine on CD ROM available?

But.  What I'm curious about is why the seal of the Theosophical Society has
a clockwise swastika which seems correct, but many books published by the
Pasadena group have a seal with the counterclockwise symbol in the seal.
This latter seems a mistake.  It seems to me that someone made a mistake and
misprinted the seal.  No one will explain this.

Thanks for the information.
Sincerely,
Eugene

+AD4-Dear Eugene,
+AD4-
+AD4-The Swastika has little to do with the workings of the Theosophical
Publishing company, as such.  If you wish to find out more about this symbol
have a look as H.P.Blavatsky's +ACI-Secret Doctrine+ACI-, especially volume 2, pages
98 onwards.  Here is a an extract from it below.
