Re: CWL Describes Daily Life on Mars

Mr Carlos,

Thank you for your response. I am not sure when Leadbeater asked you 
or anyone else to believe what he said. He ceratinly has not had the 
chance to ask me to believe what he claims to know. Neither do I ask 
you to believe what I say. However, surely you do not question his 
right (or mine) to make such claims and express our opinions as well 
as our 'knowledge' about any matter, including life on Mars. 

In my last post, I gave you quite a plausible explanation how 
Leadbeater may have seen life on Mars. Unfortunately, not being as 
spiritually advanced as him, I am unable to verify for myself the 
truth of his statements (by travelling to Mars consciously in the 
astral plane) - I am assuming you have the same problem (Yes, Mr 
Carlos, it take spiritually advancement to achieve such siddhis, no 
amount of intellectual prowess will do it for you). 

In any case, you must grant after reading my explanation, that there 
is still a small chance (1% chance? 0.01% chance?) that Leadbeater 
may be proven to be correct about Mars after all.

As for Adyar, HIDING the texts about mars - it is obvious that they 
did it out of fear of ridicule (such as yours). I, on the other hand,
have no such fear (mainly because I don't pass myself off, as some 
sort of theosophical scholar). However, I think, the people who act 
out of fear of ridicule are easier to forgive than those who indulge 
in such ridicule themselves.

Incidentally, I recently created a webpage (very timely it looks 
like) about different kinds of theosophists - you fit into one of 
the types rather well (you may want to look at the page 
http://www.sentforlife.com/theosophy.html ). And by the way, I am 
well aware of the 1925 incident when the 'Arhat' announcement was 
made, I have mentioned it in my webpage (near the bottom of the 
page), if you care to read it.

Regards,

Dave
