Hi John,
Yes it's only been in recent years that I had even heard of her.
One of the great things about the internet has been making these
writings easily available for perusal.
The Canadian Theosophist articles have also been a great source of
information of this kind for me.
Most members have no knowledge of this history, but even if a small
group of people start to investigate these historical issues on the
net, hopefully at least some may start to educate themselves and thus
have a wider perspective on the movement and all its issues.
Can you give me some more info on the Guruda Necklace and Seal of the
Tashi lama ?
I'd be interested to know a bit about it.
Regards
Perry
