Theos-Talk Archives (March 2005 Message tt00605)

In a letter to Annie Besant in 1900, the Mahatma
K.H. wrote:

"The intense desire of some to see Upasika
[Mme. Blavatsky] reincarnate at once has raised
a misleading Mayavic ideation. Upasika has useful
work to do on higher planes and cannot come
again so soon."

Who was responsible for broadcasting this "misleading
Mayavic ideation"?

In 1897, Annie Besant was telling people the
following;

"...Madame Blavatsky has been reincarnated in the
person of a young Brahman, now about nineteen years old."
The Theosophist, May, 1897, p. 498.

Seventeen years AFTER Mahatma KH wrote his letter
to Mrs. Besant, C.W. Leadbeater was still telling
Theosophists the following:

"...Madame Blavatsky lives now in a masculine body,
which she took directly she left the other one. When
she left that body, she stepped into the body of an
Indian boy then about fourteen years old...." Theosophy
in Australia, Sept. 1917.

The above evidence indicates that it was indeed
Leadbeater & Besant who were responsible for 
disseminating what Master Koot Hoomi aptly described 
as "a misleading Mayavic ideation".
