My comments was a joke, of course. Sometimes the little emoticon works and
sometimes not.
But, are you saying that the Master's were perfect in allowing CWL to
flourish? By asking questions we will learn the masters wisdom in this
case?
The theosophical masters select certain people or groups of people to show
favoritism and special considerations. The theosophical masters (or their
chiefs) or their chohan actually control the universe through unswerving
application of The Law.
The master's say they don't want you to adore them and worship them yet they
tolerate and even encourage worshipful behavior from theosophists. Why do
theosophists, even on this list, capitalize Master and Him when referring to
one of them? It is a worshipful reverence that would be squashed by a true
master. Those individuals that we might describe as perfected men are our
brothers not our gods. That it is we with our limited intellect and even
more limited vision who are daring to judge the perfect being of another
says volumes about our psychological needs.
Personally, I see great similarity between the belief dynamic of a
theosophist and a christian when it comes to describing an outer master.

And my question to the group, which has fallen on deaf ears, "why
didnt the Master's recognise this pollution in Leadbeaters aura and
disassociate him from the TS"? This is a genuine question, I am not
out to denounce the Masters, but it is very puzzling to me how
perfected men did not prevent this imperfection from flourishing.
Perhaps more puzzling is the fact that Leadbeater received letters
from one of the Mahatmas (K.H.), was accepted as a Chela (disciple) by
him and had his discipleship confirmed in a letter by HPB.
