Theos-Talk Archives (June 2006 Message tt00186)

Carlos, 

After reading your emails for
yesterday and today posted on Solovyoff, 
what are you suggesting or advising
students of Theosophy/Blavatsky to do in
regards to Solovyoff's book and testimony?

Are you saying that they should NOT read
the material? That they should simply ignore it?

And what should "real" scholars do? Should they totally
disregard ALL the material in Solovyoff's book??

Are you suggesting that a "real" scholar would
never use any material from Solovyoff?

I am starting to work on a possible new edition of
THE ESOTERIC WORLD OF MADAME BLAVATSKY.

Would you advise me to delete or remove from the 
new edition Solovyoff's positive testimony of 1884 concerning
his encounter with the Mahatma Morya?

As I have reported before, both H.P. Blavatsky 
and Mahatma Morya (in a note to Olcott) confirmed
the reality of this encounter.

If you advise me to remove his testimony, what are
your specific reasons for excluding his account
which testifies to the VALIDITY of Theosophical phenomena?
