Crosbie's Life

Carl, Daniel,
Please go ahead trying to exaggerate the past differences of perspective between Pasadena/Point Loma and the ULT, which are, of course, of scarce real importance nowadays.
So far you have not been able to see the central fact that, while all HPB/Judge/Masters groups and institutions share a common Philosophy, a part of the Adyar TS (not all of it) is still trapped in the Leadbeaterian illusions and fancies whhich lead into a completely different direction.
Perhaps in due time you will get to a more philosophic perspective of things.
In one thing I agree with you, though: Robert Crosbie is of great importance to the movement ( along with other 20th century theosophists of different groups and organizations) .
Regards, Carlos.
