Theos-Talk Archives (February 2005 Message tt00568)

Frank, Daniel,
Well I for one am always perplexed that there seems to be an absence of 
interest in what Blavatsky "indicates" by the express terms she placed before us 
all in her discourse in the various works, articles and conversations she is 
recorded to have originated.
Expressions like:
"I got my "DROP" from him." What is that "DROP?" Why is this never a 
topic on this Forum when it is so pregnant with meaning? (Tigle. tib.)

"She immediately ran and prostrated herself on the ground before him" 
Why and under what circumstance would Madame Blavatsky do this? Surely it was 
not a mere Raja that evinced such devotion from Madame Blavatsky.

"I got my Red Virgin (HPB)" What is the "Red Virgin?" Has any one found 
out why she attached such great significance to this?

Recent threads deal with Krishnamurti and a perception of a materialism 
in his speech and discourse but I posted a short time ago a link for the 
Mahamudra with my view that in reading both Krishnamurti's speech where he 
dissolved the Eastern Star and the Mahamudra together one could perhaps make a 
connection between the conceptual beauty in the Mahamudra Text and his Disolution 
speech. I get a lot there myself, but then it all depends on where one looks for 
the answer.

Blavatsky pointed us all to the Nature of Being and Universe and people 
argue on thought and matter but when have they posted on:

"Kalapa"
"Mahabhutas"
"The Great Mirror Wisdom ( 8th Consciousness"
"Nyingtid - Heart Essence Drop (Tigle)"
"The Vajra Heart Tantra Sutra"

and the whole panapoly of knowledge that existed in her day and exists 
today and is even more available widely than was when she Lived. I see a major 
absence of content that could charge and enlighten those who do read the Secret 
Doctrine, if no links are told to people then how will understanding arrive? 
Madame Blavatsky I think hoped people would read and search and find rather 
than just memorize. I think Blavatsky was indeed trained, prepared, initiated, 
groomed for her Mission as she told us, why then do we ignore finding who, 
what, when, where, why, time, place, form, event, duration. vector, energy of that 
part of her life.?The Diaspora of Tibet has been the greatest Boon to the 
west in terms of answering and defining all these parts and indications she 
herself explicitely placed in our view, how have Theosophists arrived to studied 
avoidance of those concepts, teachings , and knowledge that pose a possibility 
of depth of explanation they so desire? 

Not too long ago online I read a most remarkable pilgrimage by a westerner 
and how he was step by step prepared and then initiated in a way that brought 
remininceses of Blavatsky's teaching to my mind. At the summit of his arrival 
a "Youth" appeared sitting on a rock not far from him (his consciousness had 
proceeded to open and perception now also,) I recalled the Seven Eternal 
Youths and Seven Rays Blavatsky spoke of and the Seven Stars she said all were born 
under one of them. The Reflectivity of self of self and I thought in my mind 
"Gee, did Madame Blavatsky personally advance through this process herself 
under the mentoring of her Mahatma's? Seems at least plausible to me. But no one 
speaks about any of these kinds of things here on this Forum, it is like a 
cage with definite limit and barriers. wouldn't a little integration about the 
"means" that made the difference in the Mahatma's and Balvatsky benefit members 
here? Or are we only to be eternally condemned to polemics, rhetoric, debate 
of exterior surfaces and nicks?

It seems to me if Theosophists ever are to understand what it was all 
about they need to get much more pointed and targeted finely on the actual 
machinary in the shop of the gods.
