Mahatmas, Evolution and Emptiness

Jul 15, 2004 06:27 PM
by Pedro Oliveira


The connection between HPB's Teachers and Mahayana
Buddhism is well established in "The Mahatma Letters",
in a number of her articles and in "The Voice of the
Silence". But although in Mahayana Buddhism emptiness
(sunyata) is one of the core principles, it does not
seem to occupy a prominent place neither in "The
Secret Doctrine" nor in "The Mahatma Letters", in both
of which evolution seems to be a central concept.

Can anyone throw light on this apparent puzzle?
