Re: How We See The Movement

Carlos,
My sources are not outdated, hence one still can find this in the
various ULT-web pages, and the two so called historical books "The
Theosophical Movement 1875-25" is still holed as the truth by the
ULT-people, and the second one "1875-1950" is still sold buy the TC
and several ULT lodges. And I heard this kind of ideas in person,
as late as 2004 from leading ULT-people.
"The Judge Case" has I read, and it is lying next to me right now
when I'm writing this. And "these problems", as you write, are the
problems of ULT, and their (or should I say yours) fake view on the
history of the modern Theosophical Movement.
You wrote:
"The basic fact is that the common Teaching which unites all groups
of HPB/Masters students is immensely greater, wider and more
luminous, as a factor, than those issues in which these groups
think differently.'
and
"We all have a vast field in common, from G. Farthing readers and
many other
Adyar members, to the Pasadena TS, the ULT, the Edmonton
Theosophical Society,
the Point Loma Groups, and distinguished theosophists as Richard
Robb, or José
Ramón Sordo's excellent "Fundación Blavatsky" in Mexico, etc., and
so on."
Carlos, this is your opinion, and I can guarantee you that if you go
to the ULT in LA, or else were (especially in the US, in Europe the
ULT is a little bit more moderate); this is not the opinion there.
And please answerer my questions, and if you don't wont to for some
reason, tell me way.

and the Edmonton Theosophical Society has, to say the least, lots of
things in common with the ULT, and many a mutual help mechanism
with ULT associates.
