Thanx for making it clearer.
I have heard that some people have started to cry when they have asked
something about her after lecture - all that because of her attitude. In
Finland after
her talk someone asked totally something out of the subject of the lecture,
she seemed to be pretty blunt on the video and ignored the question.
Yes, also some people complaine that at Adyar there is not friendly
athomsphere because of her.
That´s why so many wants to have someone new who brings something new
into the Society.
Someone told me that even indians want to have someone else, but I do
not know how many
of them has really said so.
In 2006 I saw something amazing. I was standing there with an friend.
Radha was walking from
Headquarters to the gathering we had before convention where they offer
something sweet and so on.
People make some kind of lane which through Radha walked among us.
People were praising her. Seems
personality cult to me. I wondered where my friend vanished. Later I
heard him telling me that he hates personality cult
and couldnt stand it. I was also pretty amazed because of it though
tried to fit in following what people were doing, but thinking
in my mind what a heck is this about.
Well, this is bad gossipping and she maye hear this as she always does
and maybe she will give me a slapp on my face. :-)
Anyway, I have also been complained about being too straight in office.
People feel very hurt because of it sometimes.

You did not hear her speak at Olcott right after she was elected. It
was so bad that when an outsider asked who she was, he was told that
it was just some woman from India staying there because no one wanted
to admit that she was the society President.
I had one of my best lines at her expense years ago at the US
convention. They showed that dreadful movie that she was in and at
one point in the dialogue, when her character is asked if she would
marry an American, her character responded, "I don't understand
them." At that point, possessed by mirth demons, I blurted out, "She
still doesn't!" And everyone in the room roared with laughter.

That´s a pretty rude comment about her. I have heard her speaking so
many times.
She is one of the best international lecturers of TS. She has done her
studies on theosophy very well.
One can find that out in her talks. She has lived teachings in practice
in the best way she has been able.
She has always been very hard worker. Her memory what comes to names of
members has been always amazing.
I belive she has hold the candel for Theosophy and the Society.
Sure I have heard her being tough and demanding boss for those who work
at Adyar.
But loving kindness attitude has increased on her within last few years.
Toward me she has been very loving as well during bad as well during and
good times.
