Theos-Talk Archives (February 2005 Message tt00361)

I think the time is drawing close for "THE NEW AGE THEOSOPHY" Leadbeater can be explained away as a chela who failed through spiritual arrogance. Besant as a blend of theosophy and christianity. Judge as a misguided zealot who lied about The Letters through a profound belief as the end justifying the means. Mere mortals who are subject to human flaws, who took on more than they could handle. No masters, no channelling, no clairvoyance, just 
a commitment to study the teachings as presented by HPB.

Bart,
Don't give up,TRY. Any communication is better than no communication. 
Communication is a senior activity. I think you did an optimal activity when you 
sent to all on the Official's List. If a pattern of non-communication is 
present you keep nudging them until they cognite that a communication has been made 
and left unanswered by them. It is predictable that when people are stuck in a 
patterned habit, sometimes enforced upon them it is like telling them "look 
at your watch and then tell me what time it is," eventually they actually see 
their watch but give the wrong time back, so you keep asking what time it is, 
and depending on how solidly they are stuck in the events that preclude an 
actual true response, they move slowly and the time changes but is moving at that 
point, so repeat the action that produces "change" until they can be in 
"present time" and tell you the correct response with the exact time. Individuals, 
Groups, Organizations all function only through communication in some form and 
degree of effectivity, the worst condition is "blocks all communication." You 
know what your E-mail said to all that it was mailed too. Were there 
differentiated responces? What were the different responces. Based on their replys 
where would you assess their willingness to communicate at? which were higher in 
tone and response and which were negative or covert? It might be instructive 
to perform a survey analysis and compile a data base of "willlingness to 
communicate" that reflects the individual gradient of each. you might analysis the 
content which was sent to them critically in terms of content targeted to 
motivate in such form that it will calibrate their organizational tonal level and 
have it serve as an indice of what "they reach for" and "what they push away." 
One of the complaints I see made about Adyar is they seem to preferr to 
publish what they have determined to be, in terms of content "what people Reach 
for" and this is a gauge and measurement of the tonal level that is a dynamic 
collectively of populations relavive to the seven-fold economy of Being. Members 
of this Forum have posted numerical sales of Theosophical Publications that 
indice the "Reach" area of general populations that is operative in the present 
time and is a valid measurement of the minds that makes the purchase. You 
might in your next E-mail ask these lodge officials are the present time goals 
that are of most senior importance to them for the next 6 mo., 12 mo., 24. mo, 
36. mo., and then compile the results giving a indice to indicate what they 
consider is content they wwould want to respond too. Work on these primary targets 
to get movement in communication process. A Questionaire sent with questions 
like "What is the most action important in your view that you consider would 
attract people to Theosophy?" And " What would you change to make Theosophy 
appeal to more people?" Not more than 10 Questions, maybe only 5 Questions. See 
what they do in response. then recalibrate and continue the action of 
communication.
