Theos-Talk Archives (March 2002 Message tt00368)

Dear Brigitte Muehlegger,

I posted a chart at:
http://www.blavatskyarchives.com/chart4stepootonliattobm.htm
trying to illustrate the 4 step process of discovery
as applied to your interpretation of the Ooton Liatto
Case.

Below I give four more charts showing other
encounters. Brigitte, what are your conclusions
considering these cases? 

MORYA COMES ON HORSEBACK TO BOMBAY IN JULY, 1879 TO
VISIT OLCOTT

MORYA COMES TO BOMBAY ON AUGUST 4, 1880
http://www.blavatskyarchives.com/chart4stepmorya80bm.htm

OLCOTT'S ACCOUNT OF MEETING A MASTER AT THE GOLDEN
TEMPLE IN AMRITSAR ON OCTOBER 26, 1880
http://www.blavatskyarchives.com/chart4stepgoldtem80bm.htm

OLCOTT'S ACCOUNT OF MEETING MORYA IN CEYLON 
IN SEPT. 1881
http://www.blavatskyarchives.com/chart4stepmorya81bm.htm

In each of the 4 cases ABOVE (see web page for each
case) which hypothesis do you prefer for each case?

The hypotheses are as follows:

1. Olcott perhaps was simply lying and this whole
experience never actually happened.
2. Olcott was perhaps duped by a confederate hired by
Blavatsky to personate a Master.
3. Olcott was perhaps hypnotized by Blavatsky to see
this "imaginary" adept.
4. Olcott was perhaps under the influence of drugs & 
hallucinated the whole experience.
5. Olcott perhaps met a real physical man who was an
adept.

Steve Stubbs has been quite helpful and forthcoming in
giving his views about Olcott's encounters. He
believes Hypothesis 5 is the best explanation. See his
post at:

Brigitte, what is your best explanation for each of
these cases? Can we safely assume that you completely
agree with Steve Stubbs' explanation concerning
Olcott's encounters with the Masters?

at their right value; and unless a judge compares
notes and hears both sides he can hardly come to a
correct decision."
