Theos-Talk Archives (January 2002 Message tt00091)

Hi Steve, and all of you,

(Sorry I forgot the important NOT before in my email. Please bear with me).

I disagree very much with you in the below. (I am doing my best on Akasha,but I am NOT 100% certain) :

"During the New York
> period I think she did regard him as a teacher."

Also please also consider: 
That with all the - thoughtfull wisdom in Blavatsky's being - while writingIsis Unveiled only a few years after 1874, she must suddenly have become very enlightened just like that.
No. I think it highly unlikely, that Blavatsky would fall under the spell of such a fellow like Randolph. She was clearly to clever to do that. (Do you really honestly think she was that easy to cheat ??).
But that is just my view.



That she in some ways could be said to have turned 'against' Randolph after1877, could be for reasons of PR. The important thing is to attract - interested students of wisdom - in a proper manner - so they can learn, that wisdom really exists, that wisdom is real.
That is, maybe she in 1874 sought to attract students via using Randolph retoric - and then when Randolph retoric became dangerous (- in 1874-1885 theinformation society wasn't the same as today), then she turned away from that.
But she kept wisdom in high regard already then - no doubt.

What was written in the newspapers in that timeperiod ?? Maybe that could explain something ??

Let us not forget, that wisdom is more important, than this little issue alone !!!
I will myself seek to close the above subject - and not answer more one this issue.

Why say yes to materialism, - when wisdom is possible and within reach ??

Always help, never hurt. At least seek to avoid hurting.

("Too many emails" somone said. Maybe some small groups of disscussion would be a good idea too ?)
