Theos-Talk Archives (January 2005 Message tt00466)

Who else in TS history caused such disruption?

See Gregory Tillett's posting at:

http://groups.yahoo.com/group/theos-talk/message/19526

Dr. Tillett's summary statement includes:

"Of approximately fifty years of membership, 
Leadbeater was the subject of
specific public allegations or rumours 
of sexual misconduct throughout at
least twenty-six of those years (although 
various rumours and allegations
circulated at other times)."

After 1906 why did Mr. Leadbeater continue
to associate with young boys, allowing
young boys to sleep with him, allowing
young boys to be nude with him either
in the bed or in the shower?

Surely after the 1906 scandel Mr. Leadbeater
should have known the "bad publicity" such behavior
(even if totally innocent) would have 
upon himself, Mrs. Besant, the Theosophical
Society and also on the Masters and Theosophy.
