Hallo all of you,
My views are:
Perhaps.
Much more interesting is, that the Law of Karma is as real as you and I.
The motive of each individuals actions are always of importance.
By 12e. William T. Brown, September-December 1883, India [Brown 1884, 5-7,
10-11, 12, 13, 15-17]
we have:
"On the evening of the 21st, after the lecture was over, Colonel Olcott,
Damodar, and I were sitting outside the shamiana (pavilion or pandal
[temporary, open-sided shelter roofed with bamboo matting], when we were
visited by Djual Khool, the Master's head Chela, who informed us that the
Master was about to come. The Master then came near to us, gave instructions
to Damodar, and walked away."

Also this link on Brown's views on HPB and Olcott:

If one reads the above links, one will certainly understand that all
spiritual groups can be given criticism.
But only the spiritually relevant criticism has any real importance.
"What is to be thought of all these manifestations? Was not Damodar a
witness to these marvellous phenomena, and was he not instrumental, or
perhaps, as we might say, indispensable in bringing them about?
But enough of Lahore and the Himalayas. I returned to Madras a poorer,
though not yet a wiser man. Damodar had got back before me, and strange to
say I found that Madame Blavatsky had received a revelation --- doubtless by
mystic telegraph --- of my experiences in the North. Arrived at the 'shrine
' I found that letters came, as before, into the magical box, and that
replies could be despatched to Thibet by the old methods. All went well
with the mystical post office until the servant Coulomb, of theosophic
renown, offered us an unpoetic, but noteworthy, rationale of these
manifestations, by revealing to me and to one or two other true believers
the secrets of the sacred letter-box. This woman offered me further the
unpleasant assurance that the holy neophyte Damodar was solely responsible
for the 'Koot-Hoomi' appearances. My faith held out against her arguments
for a time. I hoped there might yet be some explanation of what seemed the
mechanism of trickery. But I hoped, I need hardly say, in vain.
I have, since that time, done as much as has been given me to do, in order
to restrict the peculiar exhibitions of the Thibetan magic within the limits
of Thibet. I have sought as occasion offered to discredit the 'wisdom
religion' wherever I found others walking into the toils in which I had been
ensnared. And I have the trust that in this way something has been done to
check the spread of physical diseases as well as to prevent waste of money."

The Seekers after Wisdom and Truth - think so very often that they
themselves KNOW what they spiritually are in NEED of to learn.
But quite of they do not. They know, what they Want, but not that often what
they really spiritually Need.
The Wise ones knows.
