Theos-Talk Archives (June 2001 Message tt00025)

I beg to differ on this issue. It is the right of everyone of us to put 
forward what our understanding of the facts presented in the original works 
of HPB and others. When the question of "correction" or "editing" for what 
ever reason comes up, how are we sure that the editing is improving the 
understanding. It is not unlike an world reknowned Professor of English 
trying to edit Shakespeare's plays to improve them. It is in the best 
interests of everyone to leave the originals intact and not tamper with them.
