ULT, Adyar ES and Dr. Tillett

Friends,
I have no reason to say that Dr. Tillett should visit the ULT or not. It is up to him. I just said he does no seem interested in visiting iit, or in building a dialogue with the ULT. Let alone knowing anything about it -- beyond financial and bureaucratic matters.
Historical importance of the ULT can be assessed by its contribution to the theosophical literature published since 1909, and by the fact that its subtle influence can be felt in the movement, at least by those who will pay attention to things.
Yet I see Dr. Tillett looks at the ULT at the financial and real state level.
In fact, the way we look at things shows who we are, or what is in our minds.
Dr. Tillett has been useful with his texts on Adyar's materialistic illusions, but his lack of real information on the ULT -- a Theosophy-centered informal network of people -- is overwhelmingly great. This is because he is used to work at the bureaucratic levels of reality, which may work with the part of the Adyar TS which he studied.
But he misunderstands the Adyar ES as much as he deludes himself about the ULT.
Regards, Carlos.
