Daniel, Friends, 

Thanks do Daniel. 

As Daniel should know, there are KEYS to the reading of Esoteric Papers. 

Keeping them "secret" or otherwise is something which belongs to the PHYSICAL level. 

Such KEYS to their real reading refer to the VIEWPOINT and level of consciousness -- state of mind, if you prefer -- from which the reader will approach them.  Without the KEYS, they make no sense or are read at a level where the real message is not understood at all.   

This viewpoint is not at any internet website, but it can be produced within oneself through years of sincere work along the lines of self-knowledge and self-transformation. 

H. P. Blavatksy writes that the SD also has to be understood from KEYS or viewpoints, vibration rates, whatever you call it.  

The same happens with the so-called Esoteric  (now in part "Exoteric")  Papers of HPB. 

She wrote that about the texts by Philo of Alexandria --   in "Isis". 

The Talmudists state the same about the Talmud.  And so on. 

That's why the Doctrine is called Secret, the same Doctrine is called "of the Heart", the voice is called "of the Silence" -- and so on.  Because it is NOT in the WORDS.   The New Testament talks about the need to go beyond dead letter and attain to the Spirit. 

The dead letter of the HPB's "exoteric papers" is published indeed.  So what?  

There is an unwritten transmission which is NOT in the written words, as both Zen people, Jewish tsadiks, Sufi students and Occultists  know very well.  This cannot be put in words or the internet;  but the open heart may guess it. 

We have to popularize "a [practical]  knowledge of Theosophy".  That's what matters. 

Gossips about Masters and pseudo-secrecy, or "spectacular revelations" will not help much. 

Best regards,  Carlos.
