The Tabloid Approach of Things

May 04, 2006 06:52 AM
by carlosaveline



Dear Friends,


Things out of context, and concerning inter-personality relationhips dating more than one hundred years a go, are tabloid gossips, only slightly out-dated. 

If there is a  historical  interest in these facts,  one should consider the historical context. 

For instance, we have a considerable amount of small evidences -- some harder, some not so -- that Daniel has a policy of sowing dissent, using as a tactics out-of-context statements about who-said-so-while-that-other-guy said-that-other-thing. 

For instance, he will bring Soloviof and the Coulombs here, but I don't see him quoting much of HPB on her slanderers. And she wrote a lot, about them. 

The matter of the fact is that W. Judge was loyal to himself and to HPB up to the end.  Sylvia Cranston's book "HPB" and Ernest Pelletier's book "The Judge Case" gives us the whole context of those decisive years, 1875-1896 and after.   Other books are also useful.  "The Theosophical Movement", published by ULT associates, is unfortunately unavaible as long as I know. 

Best regards,  Carlos.
