SOME HOPEFULLY ACCURATE THEOSOPHICAL HISTORY

The below message has been posted here before,
but based on this comment and question to everyone
by Dr. Gregory Tillett concerning theosophical history:

=====================================
Where is the fully documented, unexpurgated,
reasonably argued and properly documented work
presenting the Theosophical view of, for example,
the life of Blavatsky or the history of Theosophy?
And, if there is no such work, how is the deficit
to be explained? Intellectual incompetence?
Lack of anyone with the ability to do scholarly
research? Fundamental incapacity for honesty?
Simple laziness? The material is all there (albeit
much of it locked away from any objective scholarly
access, which raises other significant questions).
=====================================

...I thought it would be worthwhile to post it again
in order for it to be evaluated by him and anyone
else who wants to speak about where it stands
as a "properly documented work presenting the
Theosophical view of ... the history of Theosophy".

OK, what follows is the message that I have
posted here before (and as say below, I will
not be responding to anyone, but only reading
whatever is said about it):
==================================

I hope that many readers, especially
newcomers to theosophy, will find these
three series of articles from THEOSOPHY
magazine to be very informative and useful:

(1) The Theosophical Movement (34-part series: 1920-22)
(2) The Rising Cycle (13-part series: 1926-27)
(3) Aftermath (10-part series: 1935)

They are found in this link that goes to the
14th of 18 sections found on the "Additional"
articles index page of my WisdomWorld.org web site:

=======================================

Dear newcomers to Theosophy:

I sincerely do hope that my web site offers
a well-rounded overall view of Theosophy and
the Theosophical Movement. The 3 main links
to everything on it are found below.

Please know that I'm only the compiler of
all the articles found on my web site; I'm
not a scholar; and also that I personally
do not like to take part in conversations,
even though I do hope that what I present
from time to time will help a little in
the discussions being carried on by others.
So please do not be insulted when I do not
respond if someone addresses me, or addresses
anything that is found in any of the articles
on my web site; I leave that for others to
deal with if they want to -- whether pro, con,
neutral, friendly or unfriendly.

You may find a great deal of the Truth that you
are searching for here:

WisdomWorld.org web site (Main Page):
http://www.wisdomworld.org

This is the Index page of the "Introductory",
"Setting the Stage" book, which was especially
compiled for newcomers to Theosophy:
http://www.wisdomworld.org/setting.html

The page where "Additional" articles are slowly
being added (which contains 18 sections that
can each be clicked on at the top of the page
in order to go directly down to them, as well
as to get the link to any particular section
that you may want to use in a posting on a
discussion board, or in an e-mail to someone):

"PUBLIC & PRIVATE ENTERPRISE DEVELOPMENT FORUM":
This next link is to the most updated version of my
economic proposal to humanity, a practical project
to help our suffering world that I also consider
to be Theosophical. In it you will find a new and
unique, but mostly unknown, economic system
model that might be able to put an end to involuntary
poverty on earth. How? It presents a way to fully
finance everything of importance that is needed
in every nation. Because of this it's well worth
pointing to. Please note that, for strategic
reasons, of wanting it to have the best chance
of being accepted by all peoples worldwide,
no matter what their religious, philosophical,
and scientific beliefs are, I've put it on a
completely different web site; it contains
no mention of, or link to, the Theosophy and
the Theosophical Movement that is presented
on my WisdomWorld.org web site:
http://www.PublicAndPrivateEnterprise.org
