Of course. And if you are lying bleeding on the 
sidewalk and no emergency is to see, I guess, any 
help will be superfluous and I'll leave you to 
your bad karma.

CWL's Fancies


If the Masters lost contact with the TS in 1891 
then I would suggest that there work was completed 
and the society that formed the basis of the 
teachings became superfluous.

Dear Krishtar,

My impression of Sinnett, so far, is that he had 
many shortcomings,
including pride, narrow-mindedness, etc. --  but 
was a man of character.  He
sincerely believed his illusions. That is 
something (and no one of us is
free from illusions but we can be sincere and try 
to be open-minded).

The problem of being unable to accept the fact 
that the Masters closed
outward, verbal contacts with the theosophical 
movement in 1891 was by no
means only Sinnett's. It got most of the 
theosphical groups/organizations.
Only en 1909 Crosbie organized the ULT quite 
outside those illusions.

To Adyar and Pasadena, it seems it took up to 
mid-century to abandon fancies
of verbal/visual contact with the Masters. In the 
case of Adyar, with which
I am much more aquainted, the institutional 
structure and culture are up to
now clear results of the clairvoyant fancies.

I guess the "seal of legitimacy" is not with this 
or that organization. This
question is  to be solved or not inside the heart 
and mind of each
truth-seeker...


Best regards,  Carlos.
