Very basic problem in your argument is you are quoting from some
other book when you ought to observe, examine conditions created by
Blavatskyan fundamentalists today. Instead of observing, judging,
carefully examining conditions as exist today, you quoted from letter
written 120 years back in very different circumstances. So first
thing to do is, I would suggest, try to see things as they are
without conditioned mind. If you want to know what it means to see
things as they are, you may read some books of Krishnamurti.
You told experience of fundamentalism in Sri Lanka and Jakarta. Then
it becomes even more important to see that dogma and fundamentalism
are not formed in the TS.
