Theos-Talk Archives (May 2008 Message tt00523)

Seems you intermix Steiner with Hartmann.

Steiner never received letters form Masters, although he claimed in his E.S. openings that the Masters speak through him.
They gave him higher teachings than HPB, whom he regarded her as partly black magic and in "occult captivity"
(Mme. Tingley was also a black magician to him).

Steiner promoted clairvoyance, could read the Akahsa records, see the fomer lifes of his members, attracted many rich old ladies, and founded a church, the Christengemeinschaft".

Comparison of the doctrines shows that he followed more Besant and Leadbeater than HPB.

So when Leadbeater's teachings are theosophy, then Steiner's too.

I recall Steiner made a journey to India and met HPB in Adyar and I think
there were some letters to him from the Adepts when he was there. How many
of us here had such a privilege?
