Dear Cass

Group soul was a term used by Bishop C W 
Leadbeater and Dr Annie Besant in their literature.

Bishop Leadbeater wrote about it variously in 
"A Textbook of Theosophy",  "Man, Visible and 
Invisible" and "The Inner Life", amongst other 
of his writings. 

Dr Besant wrote about it in "A Study in 
Consciousness" and "Ancient Wisdom", also amongst 
other of her writings. 

This is another concept they espoused that 
manifestly contradicts that of Madame Blavatsky 
and her teachers.

It was Bishop Leadbeater, Dr Besant and their 
followers too who wrote about two streams of 
evolution. Once again, this is their invention 
and is in opposition to the Theosophical teachings 
of Madame Blavatsky and her teachers.
