To Anand: A Serious Question

Anand,

You wrote:

"According to A.P. Sinnett H.P. Blavatsky 
screwed up Theosophy"

Therefore are we to conclude that you too 
believe HPB "screwed" up Theosophy?

On previous occasions you have quoted from 
the K.H. letters to C.W. Leadbeater to prove 
some of your points. 

So what about the K.H. letter of August 1888 
to Colonel Olcott?

Master Koot Hoomi wrote in that letter: 

"I have also noted, your thoughts about the 'Secret Doctrine.' 
Be assured that what she [HPB] has not annotated from scientific 
and other works, we have given or suggested to her. Every 
mistake or erroneous notion, corrected and explained by her 
from the works of other theosophists was corrected by me, or 
under my instruction. It is a more valuable work than its 
predecessor, an epitome of occult truths that will make it 
a source of information and instruction for the earnest student 
for long years to come. . . ." Letters from the Masters of the 
Wisdom, Series I, p. 47

Anand, do you choose to ignore what Koot Hoomi wrote about
HPB's SECRET DOCTRINE and prefer Sinnett's contention that she
"screwed up" Theosophy?

If so, I'm sure there are many readers on Theos-Talk that 
would like to know and understand your reasoning on this matter.

If you choose to address this issue, I suggest that you 
refrain from giving us a "one liner". 

You should be able to write a few paragraphs
explaining in some detail your thinking and position 
on this matter. Maybe you have some insights to share with the 
group, but I'm afraid a brief one sentence reply doesn't 
help anyone to understand your point of view.
