Theos-Talk Archives (February 2006 Message tt00625)

Dear Friends,


Ernest Wood, former international Secretary of the Theosophical Society 
(Adyar),
and ex-secretary to C. W. Leadbeater, reveals some astonighing facts about 
the false
contacts both C. W. Leadbeater and Annie Besant had with the Masters.  One 
of them is reproduced below.

Mr. Wood writes in his book "Is This Theosophy?":

"In 1930 I acted as Treasurer as well as Secretary (...). In correspondence 
with Dr. Besant, who went to Europe, I conducted the business of the 
Society, held meetings and editted the 'Adyar Theosophist'."

"The 'Theosophist' had been removed to America, because it could be carried 
on better from there; but shortly afterwards the 'Adyar Theosophist' was 
started to replace it at Adyar (...)"

"When Bishop Leadbeater returned to live again at Adyar at the end of 1930, 
not knowing that Dr. Besant had said in Chicago that the magazine had been 
transferred to America by Master's orders, he brought forth a statement from 
the Masters that it should be returned to Adyar, as it had never been their 
desire that it should be removed from there."


That is, the names of the Masters were being freely misused as a source of 
political authority,   and those who used their names did not even consult 
each other in order to give some outer consistency to their fancies.


Best regards,   Carlos.
