So what should one conclude about Blavatsky eating meat??
Does Blavatsky eating meat have any thing to do
with her being the agent of the Masters or anything to
do with her transmitting the teachings of the Masters
in her writings???
In 1888 Master Koot Hoomi spoke of Blavatsky [the meat-eater]
in the following terms:
". . . we employ agents — the best available. Of these for the
past thirty years the chief has been the personality known as H.P.B.
to the world (but otherwise to us). Imperfect and very troublesome,
no doubt, she proves to some, nevertheless, there is no likelihood
of our finding a better one for years to come — and your
theosophists should be made to understand it. Since 1885 I have not
written, nor caused to be written save thro' her agency, direct
and remote, a letter or line to anybody in Europe or America, nor
communicated orally with, or thro' any third party. Theosophists
should learn it. You will understand later the significance of this
declaration so keep it in mind. Her fidelity to our work being
constant, and her sufferings having come upon her thro' it,
neither I nor either of my Brother associates will desert or
supplant her. . . . This you must tell to all: — With occult
matters she has everything to do. . . . She is our direct
agent. . . . "
