Hello Zack.
Thanks for the research on Bailey's use of the word Nazi throughout her
collected works. Although, It has been many years since I studied the 24
volumes of the Bailey material, I too, cannot recall specific anti Semitic
commentary by Bailey or DK, within the overall CONTEXT of those works. There
are plenty of interpretations and opinions about the anti Semitism found in
the Bailey works, none of which, I have found to be well studied and in
context of the whole work.
It would be interesting to see the results of a search of your CD, using the
word "Jews" as the search term. Added to your search on the word Nazi, that
might go a long way to putting an end to this unending and unscholarly
discussion.
Where and when will you be giving your talk?
