Implying, of course -- with your usual half cocked, pseudo profound and
prejudicial innuendo technique -- that everything else I have said on this
forum is wrong. Well, why don't we leave it to the other readers here to
decide for themselves who talks without a forked tongue. But then, I wonder
if you really understand anything you read that I have written? I didn't say
"no one knows." I only referred to the "dumbheads" among us that haven't yet
picked up Blavatsky's meaning for the term, nor have they understood its
connection with the practice of altruism -- which is identical to the
teachings of Gautama the Buddha, Jesus the Christ, and even Mohammed the
Prophet. Although, there's no need to identify those fundamental truths they
taught with the various distorted exoteric religions, that also have no
conception -- except for their few TRUE "fundamentalists" who don't rely of
their dead letters -- what "Universal Brotherhood," as HPB spoke of it,
really means.

Thank you for the complement (pun intended :-). And to you, the Master of --
whatever -- I say; HPB speaks for herself... And, her not being a
"politician" is perfectly obvious in her writings (in the sense of the
meaning of the word "political" as used in my answer to Frank... See
definition #1 below*). So, your use of the sly innuendo (referring to her as
ISIS) and implication that HPB was attempting to "rule the world" from a
"political" standpoint, is nothing more than a propaganda ploy (used by those
prejudiced ones you always seem to be defending) to justify your own
apparently biased position with respect to the fundamental ethical teachings
of HPB, as well as the aims and purposes of the theosophical movement.
