Theos-Talk Archives (April 2006 Message tt00291)

Dear Friends,


This -- "The Esoteric World of Madame Blavatsky" -- is an unfortunate book. In it lies and truths are mixed without proper identification. Open slanders are called "testimonies" in such an unhappy volume. 

If Daniel Caldwell, the editor of this book,   is more than a troller, and if he has any true respect for HPB, or for the truth, he must some day do an honest self-criticism about this.  And he should tell his friend John Algeo to stop doing the same in other volumes and books. 

A different problem with the "Blavatsky Archives On Line" is the vulgarization of information. 

What is the purpose of publishing everything one has on Esoteric Schools at the internet?  

There is a huge difference between having information and having consciousness, or being really conscious of something. 

We are in times of mental pollution, pseudo-information and misinformation nowadays.  

So, offering huge amounts of information to people who hardly have any true interest or respect for the themes involved is NOT a service to the esoteric movement. 

It is not a question of preserving secrets -- it is an issue of avoiding mental  pollution. 

Best regards,
