Theos-Talk Archives (February 2006 Message tt00679)

Hi  Friends and Carlos:

Let me so better understand :
Was that same  " Mary"  that used to claim to be a channel, an intermedium 
between the master M and AP Sinnett during the period of time in which 
Sinnett was trying to be in contact with the mahatmas independently of HPB´s 
activities?
In his Bio he also wrote that the master said, in a séance,  that he should 
not tell HPB about the  <<supposed>>> contact because HPB could be jeallous 
somehow.
So, if it´s true, didn´t the master say that he was not in contact with this 
Mary and that the only channel was HPB? I can´t remember if this occasion 
was indeed about this  woman in special.
So I gess that AP Sinnett was responsible by the  distortions and 
mistifications brought by CWL that fed the Adyar´s attraction for psychic 
contacts and experiments.
So it was not CWL that, besides AB, started the investigations in the occult 
field, but mediums of the class of a  certain Mary who were used as 
instruments?
If it is so, I can now understand why today´s spiritist books, mainly in 
Brasil,  get so similar
to those explanations given in books from Leadbeater and Annie Besant.
In portuguese I could  quote " quem vive da mente, mente!", which means
approximately " the one who lives relying in his mind, lies".
Mind is aways playing tricks on us.

Dear Theo,

You will find something, at least,  in "Theosophical History".

His wife was "Mary", the medium who purported to talk to Masters in séances
in the "inner group" organized by A. P. Sinnett.

It was there that C. W. Leadbeater started to "talk to the Masters".  The
magazine "Theosophical History" published the revealing "Autobiography" of
Mr. Alfred Sinnett, in which he frankly tells all about it.  Scott-Eliot was
also a member of such a mediumnistic group.

When Sinnett died, Leadbeater wrote that in the 1890s his "inner group" made
important "occult investigations", and so on.  Sinnett also says that Annie
Besant joined that
mediumnistic group after HPB's death, that is, while AB was already the
"Outer Head" of the Esoteric School, Adyar.

So it seems that the occult fancies started precisely in Sinnett's inner
group with "Mary", a pseudonymn for Scott-Elliot's wife.

I hope that helps, even if marginally.  If you want me to, I can give you
the bibliographical  references.


Carlos.
