Hallo Leon and all,

My views are:

I do not think I have said that Blavatsky made serious mistakes. Although 
everything is relative.
My view is, that one should know people by their fruits. If their fruits has 
been to create cults
of an emotional nature and the like - we can certainly question of they have 
provided
some good and digestable fruits. Perhaps Blavatsky made some mistakes we do 
not know about,
but which the Masters know about.
What is relevant are whether her teachings liberates the individual Seekers. 
Some Seekers might not need
to seek out Blavatsky's teaching when viewed in a dead-letter manner using 
mere theosophical terminology.
That would be a serious mistake for them, because they will go and waste 
some time - before they actually can
benefit from her teachings.

To say, that Blavatsky didn't write her teachings from any particular point 
of view
related to "TIME, PLACE, PEOPLE and CIRCUMSTANCES"- when viewed in a 
DEAD-LETTER manner -
is a mistake or at least to in agreement with the truth. When the teachings 
are viewed in a non-dead-letter manner
much of her teachings are timeless no doubt.

I do hope this was helpful.
But, maybe not all of you can understand this.
