 I would like to say that, without the "conceptual system of cosmo- and 
 anthropo-genesis --  that HPB so carefully explained in the Secret Doctrine 
 was the necessary foundation for theosophists to "prove" logically and 
 conceptively to themselves as well as to the "common man" that Brotherhood 
IS 
 a "Law of Nature" -- transformation, alone, would be useless in forwarding 
 the aims, purposes, and work of the Theosophical Movement ... >>

Dear Leon,

I'm afraid your statement here flatly contradicts what HPB & her teachers 
said on the subject, as I fully document in my two papers "The Secret 
Doctrine, Krishnamurti, and Transformation," and "Transformation:  Vital 
Essence of HPB's Secret Doctrine."  These two papers may be obtained at 
Rodolfo Don's website, teosofia.com.
Brotherhood is not -- and cannot be -- merely a product of the analytical 
mind, a major source of ALL of our troubles.  Many organized religions, 
political parties, and ideologies promote "brotherhood," yet promote the 
killing of people and the destruction of culture and property for the sake of 
that IDEAL of the analytical mind.
True brotherhood can only be the result of someone being in a theosophical, 
divine-like, state of awareness.  If such a state of awareness is not 
present, it is impossible to have brotherhood.  Such states are the states in 
which there is compassion-insight.  And it is only from such 
wisdom-compassion that can come a true sense of kinship with others, with all 
that is.  Otherwise, what we have is THE ANALYTICAL MIND playing with itself.
All best,
Aryel
