Theos-Talk Archives (August 2006 Message tt00039)

Friends,

An interesting view by Bill, below.

The fact is that there is a Theosophical Movement, with its aims, its teachings, and its goals.  Facts are facts. 

Now, to circulate inside the movement the "thesis" that HPB invented the 
Masters and therefore was a fraud is just like going into the Psychoanalytical Society and expecting to publish books with their support saying that Freud was a fake. Or like going into the Junguian circles and say that Carl Gustav Jung plagiarized all his view of Psychology. Or going into Astronomical/Astrophysical circles, circulating the idea that the Eath is flat and it is also the center of the universe, and then get mortally offended because people do not entirely agree with you.

Regards,   Carlos.
