Leadbeater did not question authenticity of The Book of Dzyan. His
point is origin of The Secrete Doctrine is not this Book of Dzyan as
Blavatsky said. Below also he write SD is result of the study done by
Blavatsky. CWL says origin of VOS is also not The Book of Dzyan.

CWL is saying that origin of SD is not The Book of Dzyan.
SD is the result of study done by Blavatsky of The Book of Dzyan.
