Theos-Talk Archives (March 2005 Message tt00538)

This chat room accumulates about 30-50 messages a day--more than I have 
time to read. I don't mind the Theosophical subject matter discussed in 
a constructive way, whether it is historical; current events in the 
Organizations, e.g. the Blavatsky Letters; controversies; commentaries 
on the literature;-- or, what I would prefer to see--discussions about 
living sharing and promulgating Theosophy. On the other hand, I would 
rather not have to wade through silly quipping; long posts reprinting 
easily available articles; or unconstructive and directionless diatribes 
for or against leaders or teachings. Let's strive to make this a place 
to be helpful to each other--to help people with what they are 
seeking--not to force on others what we might fancy they need. Just my 
two cents worth. Thanks. --j

During the last weeks this list it’s been full of non-theosophical matters, according to my point of view. I still don’t understand what we can benefit from so many ridiculous messages send by some of the participants on this list. Why the moderator is not putting an end in so much “empty talks” (in a theosophical perspective)? Why so many participants of this list don’t have anything more to say than just rubbish? By the way, we will continue to talk over and over again on the same topics – “the Leadbeater affair”, “the Judge case”, “the so call Successions”; “the Adyar versus ULT”, etc., etc., etc.? – If we what to defend someone unjustly attacked it´s better, for example, to pay attention on what is happening whit the publication of the so call “Letters of H.P. Blavatsky”, conduted by John Algeo. Your beloved HPB is under fire! Well, and what about the study of Theosophy? For
