"If we honestly consider what HPB or Olcott
would have thought of the Adyar TS in the 1920s,
I don't think there is any alternative to concluding
that they'd have been horrified and regarded it
as a huge betrayal of everything they stood for.
There are so many warnings from both of them against
the kind of atmosphere that Besant and Leadbeater
imposed on the Society."
