Carlos,
I see that you are an authority on what I have studied and suggest my knowledge is limited, I suggest your interpretations of HPB's teachings are naive at best. The old woman herself stated that without the assistance of Morya her 6th and 7th principles Atma-Buddhi, (HPB's Monad) would not have been awoken, not in her present incarnation.

Again, much to my regret, I have to realize you have not studied too much of HPB or Theosophy.
Only soul-less shells fail to have contact with their Sixth Principles.
This is part of the most initial ideas in Theosophy.
Heard that human beings have seven principles? They all act except in very grave situations...
Regards, Carlos.

Obviously HPB 6th principle was awakened, with the help of her master, and therefore provided the means for thought transference.
