To put it succinctly, bullshit.
The adepts themselves wrote that we should accept NOTHING just because
they say so; they are not giving us the Truth(tm); they are giving us
information to investigate that they believe will lead us there. Who
they really were or whether or not they even existed is irrelevant; the
importance is not in them, but in what was written under theirs,
Blavatsky's, Enc.'s names. The writings are NOT revealed Truth(tm), and
they are specifically represented as not being so.
