Carlos, regarding your text given below, I too would like to see a History
published. But I think the reason it has not been is because there are still
too many theosophists involved with the 1950-to-present period alive. There
would perhaps be too much disagreement among them as to what constitutes a true
historical perspective, or simply put, what is the TRUTH of it.
Each participant would want their involvement to be presented by them, and
therefore no real perspective could be possible.
But that does not mean that a compilation could not be made, by each of the
notables (and they know who they are) that could still be a valuable addition
to the lore already presented. And that does not mean that we would stop
disagreeing about the matter among ourselves, would it?

Friends,
In the posting below, I did not mention Ernest Pelletiers' "The Judge Case"
and other important books (like Cranston's etc.) because I was thinking of
the period post-1950, as a subject.
My point is that the period 1950-2006, seen as a whole, has not been
properly dealt with.
For instance, what about an evaluation of the last end-of-century effort,
1975-2000?
I have some material at the private personal level, but who wrote about it
in a comprehensive way so far?
And what about the start-of-the-And what about t
Many historical questions open.
Regards, Carlos.
