Theos-Talk Archives (December 2004 Message tt00067)

Hallo friends and all,

My views are:

I think I have referred to the below words before.
But I will gladly state them again:

"The bitter truth is that before man can know his own inadequacy,
or the competence of another man or institution, he must first learn
something which will enable him to perceive both. Note well that his
perception itself is a product of right study; not of instinct or
emotional attraction to the individual, nor yet of desiring to 'go it
alone'. This is 'Learning How To Learn."

That is why it is better to seek Learning than to discuss Osho and others on 
a level
which leads practically almost nowhere, but into the realms of emotional and 
intellectual stimulations.
As it was said: We shall know them on their fruits.
(I know what I think when I compare Blavatsky with either Krishnamurti or 
Osho. But Learning and Knowledge are both important and should not be 
avoided and exchanged for mere emotionalism or intellecutal analysing. )
> :-)
Let us not just stimulate the emotions. Let us seek to learn and to teach 
the inner esoterical organ.
Well this was just a few views.

Now I have one single - and still unanswered question:
Was Idries Shah the teacher mentioned by Blavatsky, who possibly would 
arrive after the years 1975 ?
