Theos-Talk Archives (March 2008 Message tt00259)

Thanks for the post. Mrs. Radha Burnier is very well  known in India and it
is timely that the award was given to her. The award is also going to bring
publicity to Theosophy since many in India have not heard of Theosophy. We
all should be happy to hear the news.
