Theos-Talk Archives (September 2008 Message tt00253)

What we need now is someone young outside the closed club. What I see is
that the GC members are in their own closed club and they talk to each other
planning, devising tactics and strategy for their own power grab and they do
not talk to the rest of us ordinary members.

As an example, while we all know that they communicate with each other using
e-mail, it is convenient, quick and cheap, when have you seen them any of
them coming out and discussing anything in the theosophical maillists. Only
one GC member I know had done this in the past -- Einar Adelsteinsen. Sadly
he died in a swimming accident some years ago.

So it is very difficult for us to believe in anything so called leaders say,
especially after the current attempt to disenfranchise all of us without
telling anyone except their closed club. Like all politicians in the USA,
they say one thing and what they do is another thing.

So a fresh young outsider can really do a lot of good to TS and Theosophy,
and I hope for a miracle.
