  Re: J.B. book, Poem by Dick Cheney

  Cass says:
  <Do you mind if I post this to others?
  - Cass>

  The more the better. For some people
  it's just what they need, others will
  accuse you of various crimes.... I can
  send you the whole file if wanted.

  On Kindness vs Outspoken-ness, Blavatsky
  was certainly outspoken enough, and 
  didn't mince her meaning. 'Just read
  her telling off the whole Catholic
  Church in her replies to Abbe Roca
  in BCW 8 & 9. HPB ended one article with:

  '....let us try, at least, _not to kill 
  each other,_ if it is not really 
  possible _for us to love each other.'_ 
  - (BCW 8, p. 391)

  Poem by Dick Cheney (below): 

  No, not really the U.S. vice-president, 
  but someone in the April, 1900 "Universal 
  Brotherhood-Path" magazine. 

  TUP has put all of Judge's "The Path," the 
  following "Theosophy" mag (1896-7), and
  the "Universal Brotherhood" mag, the
  "Universal Brotherhood Path" up to 
  1903. (All sequential and following
  the Tingley TS) "The Centruy Path" would
  be the next in the series, followed by
  "Theosophical Path" and others.
  The UB mags are better magazines
  that any group puts out today. All
  told there is 540mb of pdf files
  available for download - near impossible
  with a dial-up connection. I have
  them all, and could send a CD to some
  people if they are wanted. Truely
  unique periodicals, and "3 cheers!"
  for TUP (no copyright either.)

  SOMEWHERE BETWEEN
  by R.H. Cheney

  Somewhere between the lofty mounts -
  Snow-covered, lone and still,
  Where genius reaches Divine founts
  Of wisdom at its will,

  And Nature's boggy lowlands where
  In embryotic state,
  Enwombed in darkness and despair,
  Unlighted millions wait; -

  Somewhere between, Earth's meadows lie -
  Redemption waters roll;
  Somewhere between, the ransomed try
  The pinions of the soul.

  There camp the saved and saving few;
  There dwell thy richer kin;
  There joy diviner waits than you
  Have ever hoped to win.

  Take, then, thy staff of faith, and seek
  Those higher levels near,
  And quit the low swine-fields that reek
  With error, pain and fear.

  He that aspires to know the way
  Already answer hath;
  Or swift or slow he shall not stray
  From Truth embordered path.

  Yet broader shall the turnpike be -
  Thy guiding star more bright,
  So be some brother lean on thee
  Until he sees the light.

  (April, 1900 "Universal 
  Brotherhood-Path")
