Perry:
If you look in the archives you will see that I have done that,
several times. I have even presented evidence, for example, that in
1886 both HPB and Master K.H., in the same letter, addressed CWL as
a Chela! And I don't mind that that particular post was basically
ignored. It is part of the dynamic of a discussion list.
I have also said, more than once, that I don't speak for the Adyar
TS. My participation here is as an individual, not as a
representative of anything.
I am sorry that you seem to have taken my post personally. It was
genuinely meant as a philosophical reflection and not aimed at you
or anyone on this list.
BTW, your post gives me an opportunity to correct the Santayana
quote. It should read:
"A fanatic is a man who redoubles his efforts after he has forgotten
his aim".
Best wishes,
Pedro
