Re: Theos-World Re: Krishnamurti, theosophy, & the TS

Thanks Cass for this.
Yes, all systems are abandoned in the end, however
when we follow some, we take the Truth from them with
us.
My understanding of K is he taught and punished at the
same time, however his punishment was Natural with a
hidden lesson for each of his followers to be learned.
In that way he was a system, his lower self is not of
importance to any of us. The rest is within us ready
to be seen the moment we have taught our lower self to
OBEY to the Master inside. The Master we all have in
common: Atman
