Theosophy in All Languages

Dear Sufilight,
I agree the language in HPP's writings is the language of the 19th century.
As the language of Plato was the language of his day.
Yet true students will go beyong language into the content itself,
won't they?
The very Nasruddin tales are an experiment into intuition and a bridge
beyond outer language and style, aren't they?
So HPB, like Plato, is 19th century and belongs to all centuries,
as Nasruddin does. It is up to us to dismantle Babel and circulate
in the different languages.
Best regards, Carlos Cardoso Aveline
