Theos-Talk Archives (April 2005 Message tt00596)

Anand,



First of all the Theosophical Society in Greece did not fail. 



Second the Greek reality is very different from many countries, the church here is very, but very strong. For a child to join a public school has to be baptized in the church otherwise cannot join it. Because of the strength of the church, orthodoxy here condemns not only the Theosophical Society but Masonry, and any other movement.



Third this is not a matter of people accepting or not Blavatsky, because they do not only call Blavatsky Satanist but say much worst things about Leadbeater. Nobody is trying to impose Blavatsky or any other kind of teachings here.



I am now only one year and three months an active member in the Theosophical Society in Greece (but I am a member of the T.S. 15 years) so it is still too early to attribute anything related to the Theosophical Society here to me. 



By the way my personal preferences I try do not impose it on others and they are exclusively mine. If you conclude that I am a Blavatskyan it is your own conclusion I never said so. By the way Blavatsky was not a vegetarian, and many people are not vegetarian also,so is this a reason to judge them? Buddha's last meal was pork he was less enlightened for that? I don't think so.

Erica,
Why do people in Greece call Theosophy satanic ? I found that 
Theosophical movement failed in Greece despite favorable conditions 
there. In my opinion this is due to bad direction. I know you are 
diehard Blavatskian but why do you punish whole movement in Greece for 
that. People don't accept Blavatsky in many parts of the world and 
still you insist on her writing. Result is Theosophical movement 
failed in Greece.
