D.M. Bennett, Lay Disciple

Jake,

Thanks for your commentaries.  By the time the article on D.M. Bennet was published (actually a series of two articles, as I remember), I had a subscription of 'Quest' magazine,  so I have it.

You are absolutely right as you say:

"He [ Bennett ] was being  aided by the teachers. (It seems today that theosophists have a much more cultish or sectarian attitude of what is ACTUALLY included in the theosophical movement.)"

Regards,  Carlos.
