Theos-Talk Archives (June 2003 Message tt00041)

Here's a quote from G. de Purucker that might raise 
some eyebrows, maybe (or whatever?). It's from 
"The Dialogues of G. de P," volume 2, KTMG 
papers, June 11, 1930, page 129:

<<There is today an association of Theosophists 
who now call themselves 'The United Lodge of 
Theosophists.' As far as I have been able to gather, 
they apparently think that all esoteric inspiration 
and all receiving of new esoteric light stopped when 
H.P.B. and W.QJ. died — that all the esoteric wheels 
stopped then and there, and that there remains 
nothing in the world for men to live up to or aspire 
to in the way of a stream of illumination and 
teaching excepting the books that these two 
Messengers wrote and left behind them.
Yes, 'The United Lodge of Theosophists' are in fact 
bibliolaters, book-worshipers. Because they have H. 
P. B.'s and W. Q. J.'s books, the situation is not so 
bad; but is not this situation just what the sects in 
Christianity have degenerated into ?
Now these good and earnest people otherwise 
deserve credit for their splendid loyalty to H. P. B. 
and to Judge, yet if they don't know it themselves 
intellectually, they are instinctively conscious of the 
fact that they have cut themselves off from the living 
stream of inspiration flowing from the Great Lodge; 
that their whole dependence is on books. They 
disclaim any Teachers.>>
