Theos-Talk Archives (February 2005 Message tt00576)

I found the source, and please if you have The Theosophist of May, 
1936 and you find the article of Hodson could you kindly send me a 
copy of it. In the T.S. here I could not find this issue.

"In Germany, soon after Hitler seized power, the liberal political 
parties became illegal. So did Theosophy, four years later. In the 
meantime, The Theosophist monthly had published Jinarajadasa's 
denunciation of persecution of Jews; but also praise by the 1934-
1945 President George Arundale of Hitler; and an enthusiastic 
paranormal description by `A non-German theosophist' [G. Hodson?] of 
the `purity' of the Führer's beautiful aura.13)"

13) The Theosophist, May 1936, 242. Nazi propaganda posters also 
often depicted Hitler with an aura around his head; Albrecht W. 
Thöne, Das Licht der Arier. Licht-, Feuer- und Dunkelsymbolik des 
Nationalsozialismus. München: Minerva, 1979, 35.
