re Masters/Theosophy after HPB's passing

Some excerpts from "H.P. Blavatsky As I Knew
Her" by A.L. Cleather:


<<Some twenty years ago, or more, I came to the
conclusion that H. P. B.'s passing sounded also the
death-knell of the Theosophical Society, as such. But
from a personal and interior point of view, it was even
more tragic. For I am absolutely convinced that, WHEN
H. P. B. LEFT US, THERE WAS NO LONGER ANY
POSSIBILITY OF DIRECT COMMUNICATION
WITH THE GREAT LODGE OF MASTERS, except
of course, for individuals who were capable of rising to
Their plane by interior effort and aspiration. If this be
not so, why—after her death—do we find Mr. Judge and
Mrs. Besant, apparently unable to rely on interior
guidance, turning to supposed chelas, psychics, and
clairvoyants in their efforts to re-establish
communication with the Masters ? The answer is plain
to anyone who has carefully studied what the Masters
Themselves have written on the subject. In the long
letter of rebuke to Colonel Olcott for his attitude
towards H. P. B., received during his voyage to England
in 1888, the Master K. H. writes :—" Since 1885, I have
not written, or caused to be written, save through her
[H. P. B.'s] agency, direct or remote, a letter or line to
anybody in Europe or America, nor communicated
orally with, or through any third party . . . With occult
matters she has everything to do. We have not
abandoned her. She is not given over to chelas.
She is our direct agent." (1 see A GREAT
BETRAYAL, already mentioned.)>>
