Re: Theos-World Re: Einstein's personal library

For whatever it is worth, my first encounter with the Einstein-Secret 
Doctrine connection was through the late Alfred Taylor. Dr. Taylor was 
at the time the director of Krotona school. According to Taylor, 
Einstein was his long time personal friend. Since, the great 
mathematician was always sort of a hero figure to me, I especially 
delighted in broaching the subject. So Dr. Taylor and I discussed 
Einstein on several occasions. More than once Taylor described 
Einstein's enthusiasm for the Secret Doctrine which, Taylor said, 
Einstein referred to as his "bedtime reading."
