My views are:
Please, try to understand that this email is written out of compassion to=20
all of us.
Please...
Cass: I also come from that same place.
Cass wrote:
"I am not that concerned Morten"
I would say and suggest, that you AUGHT to be concerned.
ParaBrahman is real.
Cass: Para Brahman is in his heavens and all is well. I know that ParaBrah=
man is real as he is at the source of all creation.
Cass wrote:
"If this knowledge had been freely available to any book reader we would=20
have blown up this planet twice over."
Be careful. It might happen!
Cass: My fears entirely, was it Keely that understood vril energy but destr=
oyed the evidence as he feared it would result in disaster if placed in the=
wrong hands?
One aught to seek wisdom and act wisely.
Please remember, that I have in all this only been talking in general=20
terms - and not about Blavatsky alone.
I am quite certain, that those Seekers after Truth, who yet do NOT really=20
and honestly Know, what is good to publish and make officially available -=
=20
and what NOT to make officially available - aught NOT to publish anything=20
new - ie. anything not yet published. And they aught to carefully consider=
=20
their conscience when copying papers from other authuors and while later=20
distributing them - for instance distributing them on the Internet. We all=
=20
have something to learn.
If any writer, author or Seeker just without compassion publishes anything=
=20
they can get hold on without verifying, what compassion is, they will also=
=20
have to face the consequences of misleading a number of Seekers.
Cass: I agree that the road can be rocky but we must also learn to discrimi=
nate between what is false and what is fact. I am sure that the karmic con=
sequences are tied in to motive.=20=20
I am in fact talking about unconscious sorcery. When one becomes a wellkno=
wn face or a wellknown teacher one better think twice before one starts pla=
ying with fire and go publishing just anything, - and especially anything o=
n the Internet, because it has a larger and broader audience.
Cass: Perhaps their reasons are driven through ignorance rather than throu=
gh evil? I am partially convinced that any press for HPB is good press, th=
at it is better to give a version of the ancient truths, even as a substitu=
te theory, than to continue down the path of christianity, et al.
Master Morya said that Blavatsky was too outspoken,
and yet Blavatsky was FORBIDDEN to say what she Knew:
"You know K.H. and me -- buss! know you anything of the whole Brotherhood=20
and its ramifications? The Old Woman is accused of untruthfulness,=20
inaccuracy in her statements. "Ask no questions and you will receive no=20
lies." She is forbidden to say what she knows. You may cut her to pieces an=
d=20
she will not tell. Nay -- she is ordered in cases of need to mislead people=
;=20
and, were she more of a natural born liar -- she might be happier and won=20
her day long since by this time. But that's just where the shoe pinches,=20
Sahib. She is too truthful, too outspoken, too incapable of dissimulation:=
=20
and now she is being daily crucified for it. Try not to be hasty, respected=
=20
Sir. The world was not made in a day; nor has the tail of the yak developed=
=20
in one year. Let evolution take its course naturally -- lest we make it=20
deviate and produce monsters by presuming to guide it. "
http://www.theosociety.org/pasadena/mahatma/ml-47.htm (Received Allahabad,=
=20
3rd March, 1882.)
Cass: I guess HPB as a personality was unable to deal in parables. Morya un=
derstood that a little knowledge can be a dangerous thing in the wrong mind=
s, but 100 years have passed, and the world is crying out for an alternativ=
e philosophy that synthesises, science and religion.
A quote from Blavatsky:
"It is well known that the first rule of the society is to carry out the=20
object of forming the nucleus of a universal brotherhood. The practical=20
working of this rule was explained by those who laid it down, to the=20
following effect:--=20
HE WHO DOES NOT PRACTISE ALTRUISM; HE WHO IS NOT PREPARED TO SHARE HIS LAST=
=20
MORSEL WITH A WEAKER OR POORER THAN HIMSELF; HE WHO NEGLECTS TO HELP HIS=20
BROTHER MAN, OF WHATEVER RACE, NATION, OR CREED, WHENEVER AND WHEREVER HE=20
MEETS SUFFERING, AND WHO TURNS A DEAF EAR TO THE CRY OF HUMAN MISERY; HE WH=
O=20
HEARS AN INNOCENT PERSON SLANDERED, WHETHER A BROTHER THEOSOPHIST OR NOT,=20
AND DOES NOT UNDERTAKE HIS DEFENCE AS HE WOULD UNDERTAKE HIS OWN--IS NO=20
THEOSOPHIST.
Lucifer, November, 1887"
("LET EVERY MAN PROVE HIS OWN WORK")

OCCULTISM VERSUS THE OCCULT ARTS
"Let then those who will dabble in magic, whether they understand its natur=
e=20
or not, but who find the rules imposed upon students too hard, and who,=20
therefore lay Atma-Vidya or Occultism aside--go without it. Let them become=
=20
magicians by all means, even though they do become Voodoos and Dugpas for=20
the next ten incarnations."
http://www.blavatsky.net/blavatsky/arts/OccultismVersusTheOccultArts.htm
Master Morya says:
"On the other hand we claim to know more of the secret cause of events than=
=20
you men of the world do. I say then that it is the vilification and abuse o=
f=20
the founders, the general misconception of the aims and objects of the=20
Society that paralyses its progress -- nothing else. There's no want of=20
definitiveness in these objects were they but properly explained. The=20
members would have plenty to do were they to pursue reality with half the=20
fervour they do mirage. I am sorry to find you comparing Theosophy to a=20
painted house on the stage whereas in the hands of true philanthropists and=
=20
theosophists it might become as strong as an impregnable fort. The situatio=
n=20
is this: men who join the Society with the one selfish object of reaching=20
power making occult science their only or even chief aim may as well not=20
join it -- they are doomed to disappointment as much as those who commit th=
e=20
mistake of letting them believe that the Society is nothing else. It is jus=
t=20
because they preach too much "the Brothers" and too little if at all=20
Brotherhood that they fail. How many times had we to repeat, that he who=20
joins the Society with the sole object of coming in contact with us and if=
=20
not of acquiring at least of assuring himself of the reality of such powers=
=20
and of our objective existence -- was pursuing a mirage? I say again then.=
=20
Cass: Again it comes to motive, he appears to be referring to those who wan=
t to become occultists for power, authority and prestige over their fellow =
men. That basically these are either weeded out very early in the piece o=
r fall prey to their baser instincts.
=20
It is he alone who has the love of humanity at heart, who is capable of=20
grasping thoroughly the idea of a regenerating practical Brotherhood who is=
=20
entitled to the possession of our secrets. He alone, such a man -- will=20
never misuse his powers, as there will be no fear that he should turn them=
=20
to selfish ends. A man who places not the good of mankind above his own goo=
d=20
is not worthy of becoming our chela -- he is not worthy of becoming higher=
=20
in knowledge than his neighbour. If he craves for phenomena let him be=20
satisfied with the pranks of spiritualism."
http://www.theosociety.org/pasadena/mahatma/ml-38.htm (Received Allahabad.=
=20
About February, 1882. )
Master Morya was struggling in 1882. Do you think things have improved sinc=
e=20
he wrote this???
Let us have more Brotherhood and Sisterhood - ie. more Altruism and more=20
wise
teachings - teachings adapted to time, place, people and circumstances in a=
=20
wise manner.
I am not concerned in any negative sense of the word. But concerned I am.
Cass: I am getting a sense of fear coming from you that occult knowledge mu=
st be for only the righteous, but who can decide, who is righteous. Perhap=
s I am complacent but I believe that the Masters are watching over us and w=
ill not allow anything to stop the divine plan of evolution. Even if it mea=
ns many souls may perish there will be other opportunities in this and othe=
r solar systems for us to "know ourselves"

Some theosophical texts will most certainly have a great risk of creating a

Wisdom is still important.
