Theos-Talk Archives (November 2006 Message tt01001)

Yes, I agree with you Daniel.  This claim of contact through the heart is not only self delusional but also self indulgent.  HPB met her master in a street in London if I am correct.  At some point there has to be an objective contact that will verify our subjective beliefs.

            Carlos, 



You write:



============ ========= ========= ========= ========= ========= ======

It's simple, and I've told you several times already. The link with 

the Master, for any disciple, in in the heart, that is, in the sixth 

principle, Buddhi.



Hence authority comes from the heart.



For an aspirant to discipleship, authority also comes from the heart, 

because it is there that the link with one's higher self occurs.



The contact between HPB and her Master was in, and through, her sixth 

principle, or heart. OK?

============ ========= ========= ========= ========= ========= ===



Carlos, I am not saying that the gist of what you write above is not 

true --- at least on some level, etc.



But the fact remains that the Master ALSO precipitated a letter of 

direction, too.  A pretty concrete manifestation!  And apparently the 

Master ALSO appeared to both HPB and Judge and had regular 

conversations, etc. about such things.



Pseudo-occultists all the time make such vague statements as those 

you make because if you make it vague enough then you can also 

justify almost any course of action, almost any statement.  



This kind of reasoning on your part is ALSO used by students of 

Besant, Leadbeater, Bailey and Prophet.  I have a file of replies 

from such students who want to discount the detailed comparisons 

showing the contradictions between HPB's original teachings and 

Leadbeater's, Bailey's versions, etc.  In almost all cases, such 

corespondents appeal to some vague level of spirituality and suggest 

that if one could only "see" at that level, beyond the words, beyond 

the intellect, beyond the rational, then it would be obvious that 

there are no real differences between HPB's original teachings and 

some later claimant's teachings such as Leadbeater. 



Also almost any claim of contact with the Masters can be justifed by 

saying that the link with the Master, for any disciple, in in the 

heart.  By putting the claim at such a level, the most contradictory 

and even absurd claims and statements can be and are justified.



OK?



Daniel
