Theos-Talk Archives (February 2006 Message tt00087)

Carlos,

In a letter dated Jan 6, 2006, you wrote to 
Betty Bland, President of the American Section of the TS
(Adyar):

"In time I hope the Adyar TS will come to publicly
acknowledge and debate other mistakes it made.

"A few, selected examples:

"1.  The tampering with the first edition of The Secret Doctrine,
until the ULT published the first facsimile edition in 1925...."
[The Aquarian Theosophist, March 17, 2006.]

Carlos, from this excerpt I am assuming that you do not approve 
of this "tampering" with the first edition of The Secret Doctrine
and that you believe the Adyar TS should publicly acknowledge that 
this tampering was a mistake.

As I have demonstrated in a series of articles that there is also 
unacknowledged "tampering" with HPB's original 1889 text as 
reprinted in the Theosophy Company's edition of the VOICE OF THE 
SILENCE, do you believe that the Theosophy Company/ULT should also 
publicly acknowledge that this tampering was also a mistake?

If it was wrong in the case involving THE SECRET DOCTRINE, then is 
it not wrong in the case of THE VOICE OF THE SILENCE?
