HPB Says Jesuits Want More Than Just Masonry

Dear Friends, 
 
H. P. Blavatsky said  that the Jesuits (the “long arm” of the Vatican)  wanted much more than turning modern  Masonry into a “sad story”.  They  have succeeded in that, no doubt ; but their  power project is much bigger. 
 
HPB writes: 
 
“It would be well perhaps, if the Jesuits contented themselves with making dupes of Freemasons, and converting that order into a mere convivial Benefit-Club, which allures members by the prospect of   refined Banquets in the Societies of Princes, statesmen and eloquent orators in speech and song. Their lethal plottings, however, have a much wider scope,  and embrace a minuteness of detail and care of which the world in general has no idea.  Everything must be done by them to bring the mass of mankind again to the state of passive ignorance and superstition which, they well know is the only one which can help them to the consummation of their purpose of Universal Despotism”. (1) 
 
 
In December 2006,   some 115 years have passed since HPB’s death in  1891. We are about to close the first 107 years’ cycle within the Aquarius  Era (1900-2007).  It does not seem that such a jesuitical purpose of a centralized despotism has a brilliant future any longer.  Yet  Masonry was neutralized by the Jesuits,  as an organization. 
 
As to the theosophical movement,  it  should be vigilant  not to be neutralized too, in one way or  another –  be it  by routine and dogma ( tamas guna ),  or by dissension and disharmony  ( rajas guna );  or perhaps  by an unfortunate combination of both factors.  
 
One can be  reasonably optimistic about that ;  but watchfulness is still the best way to prevent  further problems.   The “Dhammapada” talks a lot about  the importance of being watchful and vigilant.   
 
Best regards,   Carlos.
