That it was not Cass that wrote but me, nice to know there is an agreement on that. Of course we cannot compare Puruker writings with Krishnamurit. But thinking about Krishnamurti's position he did what he was supposed to do, to break completly his connection with the Theosophical Society. Even so Krishnamurti when asked did not denied the existence of the Master but he created his line, which I believe to be helpfull as well for the students of Blavatsky.
It does not contradict the teachings of Blavatsky, but emphasize the need for self knowledge. And I am sure that at the time if any person would have the opportunity to contact the Master they would say without second thought stop praising us, we are not gods.

Obviously K was able to be the medicine for the
Adyar astralism or to tell them what is not. But
he seem to have failed to tell them what is the
pukka theosophical doctrine.
K's worth therefore is limited within the broad
Theosophical Movement to the mayas of Adyar. A
theosophist which accepts other schools may feel
no need to study K's doctrines.
Take for example someone wo studies Gottfried de
Puruckers lectures and books. Would he also feel
the need to study K?
