PARABLES, METAPHORS AND TRUTH

Dear friends,
Some of Paul Johnson's friends seem to think that to use parables, myths and
metaphors or secrecy, on teaching Esoteric Philosophy, is to lie.
This is almost too naive to be sincere.
Cloaking the mysteries under a veil is adapting truth to the level of those
who hear. See the Parables in Christianism and in every religion, and
metaphors even in Modern Physics!!!
We do this with our children or grandchildren at home, if we have them.
Lies exist, though -- and we do not need them as we deal with universal
truth!
That's why we do not need Solovyof, Coulombs or their disguised, perhaps
unconsciousor semi-conscious agents and propaganda men like Paul Johnson
and John Algeo.
Best regards, Carlos.
