While discovery of Krishnamurti by Leadbeater is a remarkable one, the whole
expectation of manner of Maitreya's second coming being a re-run of Jesus
was, in my opinion, totally in error.

Maybe, maybe not. In 'The Yogic Ascent to Spiritual Heights', Geoffrey
Hodson wrote, "Reduction in contact with the Master may temporarily occur as
the result of two procedures. One of these is interior and almost
automatic; for when an initiate falls deeply into error, indulgence, denial
and scorn of the occult path, his own ego withdraws its radiant influence
and knowledge of the Brotherhood so that the personality forgets about the
illumination and upliftment it has received. The other is external, and may
be regarded as a surgical operation by the Brotherhood, which, regretfully
and generally for the remainder of that life, closes down the memory centers
associated with occultism in the mental body and even in the brain."

Krishnamurti said he couldn't remember anything before 1929. I don't
right now have the reference on this. I'll look for it. See also
