Dear Ramadoss,
>TS leaders have a heavy duty to stand for a very high level of
ethics and demonstrate to the world they do so. TS and Theosophy
cannot be effectively broadcast to the world when there is a cloud
over the level of ethics at which we operate.<
While I agree with you that Dr. Dusan Zagar's message to great extend
dismiss extreme speculations about the President's poor health, I
anyway do not share your view about her fitness for the reelection.
There are several, already mentioned reasons for such opinion, and
the most recent one is that, in my view, she started this election
campaign behind the curtains with her circular letter. And Dr. Dusan
Zagar can possibly start to adopt ethical rules in his own house as
it was his wife, Mrs. Breda Zagar, who distributed translation of
this circular letter.
