Newcomers: Beware of New Age Razzle-Dazzle

sanctius:
I have a firm conviction that you do Theosophy a great injustice by pointing
everyone, especially newcomers, to Dr. Joshua David Stone and his wife, who
are nothing, at least to this student, but fast-talking, hocus-pocus,
razzle-dazzle, new-age spiritual DOT.COM money-grabbers and hustlers,
putting out a lot of high-sounding nonsense, along with whatever may be
true. After looking over their web page that you pointed us to, and reading
some of their material, I can surely see why you relate them to Alice
Bailey, but can in no way see any connection to the Theosophy put forward by
HPB for the Adept fraternity, in service to humanity. I will not say any
more, or answer you or anyone, after I post this, but leave it to you and
others to reply, boil me in oil, hash out, and/or think about, in any way
each cares to do so. My job, rather my duty, as I see it, is finished after
simply posting this message for everyone to deal with as they will.
This quote, from my introduction to the FREE compiled book on my web site,
in my opinion, fits perfectly with what you have pointed us to and that you
think is the "Cat's Meow", the top of the heap, so to say, of wisdom and
knowledge:
"...let me say that it is obvious to every dedicated and diligent student of
Absolute Truth and Reality that the entire New Age Movement, so-called, has
grown out of the original Theosophical re-presentation to humanity: All of
its various teachings, ideas, concepts, methods, books, etc., are a huge
mixed bag of truth, reality, mistakes, misinterpretations,
misunderstandings, falsity, delusion, fantasy, ignorance, baloney,
poppycock, wishful thinking, and so on. And because of this it is tough for
a genuine seeker to tell the true from the false or the mistaken, to
whatever degree...."
Newcomers, I ask you to compare, simply as a "sample" of what true Theosophy
is, the kinds of material that I have compiled on this web site, written by
serious students of the Theosophy of HPB, with the kind of material you find
in the link that sanctius provided to Dr. Stone's web site -- and then make
your own choice as to which is the wisest to begin a deep study of:
Here is the Wisdom World web site I refer to, and that I am the Compiler of:
