Theos-Talk Archives (February 2008 Message tt00246)

Thanks for the informative post.

*One of the Adepts said "Ingratitude is not one of our vices.". Many many
have sacrificed for the "Forlorn  Cause."

As they say in here, they walked the walk not just talked the talk. Many
have contributed their prime of life and not just taken to theosophy
as an avocation or second job,
after retirement from worldly occupations as many do.

While we may disagree what they all said and did or do
now, we have to remember and convey our gratitude for all they have done.

Let us also remember those exposed to theosophy is a very miniscule
number compared to the population of the world.
