Theos-Talk Archives (March 2008 Message tt00246)

Hello, my name is Katherine Masis and I just joined this group.  
Decades ago, I had read several of the "classic" theosophical books by 
Annie Besant, C.W. Leadbeater, Jinarajadasa, H.S. Olcott and others.  I 
had borrowed them from a member of the local T.S.  I had also read some 
works by HPB, mostly a few chapters out of "Isis Unveiled" and "The 
Secret Doctrine."

I practiced Zen Buddhism for about 15 years before I left a certain 
center after I finally realized what was going on with the group's 
leadership.  Enough said about that!  I left that group several years 
ago, and now I occasionally sit with a local Tibetan group.  Lately 
I've run into some folks I've known for years who still attend their 
local T.S.  I'm glad I found out about this group and I'm excited to 
read and discuss posts about how the Theosophical perspective fits in 
with today's world.
