�Every Western Theosophist Should Learn and Remember...�

THE �MAHATMA LETTERS�, ON DEALING WITH FALSEHOODS

ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo


Dear Friends,


Having been intoxicated with the theological indoctrinations of Vatican Christianism for the last 16 centuries, we suffer from a tendency to think that outward courtesy must replace actual respect for truth.

Yet, surprisingly enough, common respect for truth is inseparable from true Brotherhood.

In the �Mahatma Letters�, one of the Adept-Teachers who inspire the theosophical movement writes:

�Every Western Theosophist should learn and remember, especially those of them whom would be our followers -- that in our Brotherhood, all personalities sink into one idea -- abstract right and absolute practical justice for all. And that, though we may not say with the Christians, �return good for evil� -- we repeat with Confucius -- �return good for good; for evil, -- justice�.� (1)



Best regards, Carlos.
