Thanks for pointing out the message. At the end of the msg, there is an
interesting observation, which I quote.
"These organizations have all grown too wealthy. Wealth to people is
like carrion to vultures. There will always be a select group of
gatekeepers who will guard and maintain these organizations. If you
cannot contribute to the TM by working through these organizations, then
make your contributions through organizations you can work with. Or
make contributions from your own resources."

PS: We just saw how one man's effort can provide timely info to theosophists
around the world, which the organizations with all they wealth were
unwilling or unable to do. I am speaking of Anton's website on election
materials.
