Theos-Talk Archives (November 2006 Message tt00267)

In early 1887, H.P. Blavatsky wrote to Countess Constance 
Wachtmeister the following:

"After a long conversation with Master....either I have to return to
India to die . . . or I have to form ... a nucleus of true
Theosophists, a school of my own ... with as many mystics as I can
get to teach them...."

Later in Sept. 1888 in a letter to John Ransom Bridge, HPB wrote:

"...I am organizing...a special centre ... of exclusively occult
students, willing to accept...the teachings of which I am the channel
and which I cannot impart except to pledged members...."

In the "Preliminary Memorandum" issued by H.P. B. in Dec. 1888, one 
finds the following:

"The real Head of the Esoteric Section is a Master, of whom H.P.
Blavatsky is the mouthpiece for this Section. He is one of those
Adepts referred to in theosophical literature, and concerned in the
formation of the Theosophical Society. It is through H.P. Blavatsky
that each member of this section will be brought more closely than
hitherto under His influence and care if found worthy of it."
Quoted from: http://www.katinkahesselink.net/esinstr.htm#prelim1

>From the above, one sees that H.P. Blavatsky formed the Esoteric
Section AT THE DIRECTION of her Master. And the Master was the REAL
Head of the Section and H.P. Blavatsky was the channel or MOUTHPIECE 
of this Master for the Section.
