Theos-Talk Archives (January 2003 Message tt00306)

Hello Frank, 

It's fun to see how thoughts converge sometimes. I was thinking about
Besant too when I wrote the message. The article was published in
March, and I believe Blavatsky had already met Besant by that time.
Besant joint the TS two months later--in May. Whatever HPB may have
thought of AB's potential for psychic abilities, she undoubtedly saw her
as a potentially important asset to the TM. 

I was also thinking of W.B. Yeats who was a member of the Blavatsky
Lodge and the ES at this time. Yeats was also deeply concerned about
the rampant "fanaticism" that he observed in the TS. He even wrote
about a member who had attempted suicide.

It may also be of interest that HPB published her article on
pseudo-Theosophy in 1889.
Annie Besant became a TS member in 1889.
It were two septenaries since the Inner School launched the TS in 1875.
Two septenaries = 2 x 7 = 14 = 1 + 4 = 5.
The Manas principle in man is 5th, counted from outside.
HPB once said about Annie Besant: "All intellect, nothing spiritual."
