Theos-Talk Archives (December 2005 Message tt00143)

Dear Jerry,
Many months back I wrote at Theos-talk that there would be revival 
of Theosophy in America and other countries. That time TSA was not 
so actively spreading. However there were and are some other causes 
that should revive Theosophy in many countries. Signs of revival are 
already visible, there is long way to go. My best wishes to TSA and 
it's members.
