Theos-Talk Archives (September 2006 Message tt00488)

 Friends, 



1) Daniel (see below) should know that  V. Harrison never claimed to know much of the inner side of the movement, or even about the History of the Movement.  Just because he did ONE important thing does not make of him an infallible "Authority" on things he did not study. He did not claim being any sort of Central Authority. 

2) Theosophy in general,  and HPB in particular do invite us to think for ourselves. We are not comdemned to eternally repeat quotes from others, or to  forbid ourselves from thinking on our own and taking  responsibility for our views.  HPB tells us that there is much more to Theosophy than just replay and re-quote.  

3) Theosophists are free-thinkers and so far I have seen no significant arguments against the views I brought here. Does anyone rationally defend  the idea that Old Olcott forged that Letter? 

4) The Full Text of the 1900 Letter does NOT support Annie Besant regarding Judge, at all. On the contrary,  it clearly  says A.B.  is under mayavic influences. Well, it is precisely because of those mayavic influences that Besant  persecuted  Judge in the 1890s... 

5) The letter describes nearly all the absurdities Besant would do from that moment until the end of her life.  There are oher cases in which the Masters write to "falling" disciples.  There are reasons for that. No only because the karma of the movement as a whole.  Also because the precise way the disciples "fall" in one incarnation should be as smooth as possible, for them to have other chances in the next incarnation.  In the M. Letters, there is at least one case of extreme patience of a Mahatma with a falling disciple, even after he had technically fallen,  and I can bring the evidences here.  

6) An unprejudiced analysis of the 1900 letter will show things that conventional "political thought" has prevented more than one people from seeing.  So far,  people "politically aligned with Adyar" have ignored the text because it shows A.  Besant completely out of line from the viewpoint of the Mahatmas; while people "politically aligned against Adyar" have widely ignored the text because Besant was supposed "not to deserve" any letter from Mahatmas any longer... 

7) The situation entirely changed with the publication of the FULL TEXT in 1987.  I dont think Vernon Harrison had any strong idea of what the Esoeric Section was or is about. He cerainly did NOT read the FULL text of the 1900 letter.  Therefore his opinion is outdated.  

Yet the new evidences have been largely ignored -- rather for Tamasic and 'Political' Reasons. 

It is evident that the Movement has a TAMASIC problem nowadays. 

Time is Truth's best friend. The movement will gradually wake up.  

Best regards,   Carlos Cardoso Aveline.
