Question for Gregory Tillett about Dzyan Esoteric Section

Gregory, you wrote:

"The DES . . . remains ONE OF THE GREAT SECRETS of Theosophical 
history. . . . I hope that its history and teachings will be made 
accessible to students of Theosophical history when I complete the 
history of secret societies in the Theosophical movement. . . . But 
the role of the DES has been even greater than that of the Adyar and 
Pt Loma ES groups because it has remained largely 'INVISIBLE'." caps 
added.

Several students and I have been engaging in several discussions on 
the DES and one question we have is:

WHY has the DES remained such a GREAT SECRET and so INVISIBLE? 
What has motivated ULT/DES members to be so secretive and guarded 
about even the existence of DES?

In contrast, HPB publicly announced the formation of the E.S.T.S. in 
the pages of LUCIFER and LUCIFER, THE PATH and THE THEOSOPHIST in the 
late 1880s and 1890s had information from time to time concerning the 
E.S.T.S.
