Re: Theos-World What is Theosophy

Feb 14, 2008 06:32 AM
by Pablo Sender


Why do you relate the LCC with HPB? You are mixing the TS and the LCC.
HPB has nothing to do with it. Only those who are interested in the
Church read their literature. It has nothing to do with the regular
study in the TS. Or would you say that the TS is perverted by the
Indian National Congress just because Hume and Besant where there? Did
HPB say anything about an Indian congress? 
One thing is the work through the TS, and a different thing the work
for humanity in other areas. Or are you going to say that the TS
member should never work or think beyond the theosophical bubble?
I sincerely have a hard time in understanding how that kind of
arguments are valid to a mind that is bent to think by itself. The
only explanation I see is of an emotional nature...

there was nothing in HPB's teaching that advocated the establishment
of a religious organisation.  LCC is THE LIBERAL CATHOLIC CHURCH, find
me one quote where she or the masters said one good word about the
Catholic Church.  You are so vehement about the Jesuits, yet you stand
now in defence of a Catholic Church. Where are you coming from?

and have passed on their knowledge to me ex gratia.
