Theos-Talk Archives (July 2006 Message tt00455)

Daniel,

Are you discussing Theosophy Company, which deals with Theosophy in a responsible manner, but in order to avoid the consciousness of your efforts to publicize slanders against H. P. Blavatsky? 

Is this a diverting manoeuvre? Or a pavlovian reaction perrhaps? 

Best regards,   Carlos.

Assunto:Theos-World A few Questions for Carlos about "Invisible Editing"

> Carlos,
