Yes.
But that does not explain the appearnt NEED by various TS Lodges to sell the books by C. W. Leadbeater, does it?

I do not believe H. P. Blavatsky ever agreed upon selling books by Beverly Randolph or by the Spiritists?

  Here is another angle.

  In today's Internet age, most of us buy our books on-line from sources such
  as Amazon.com or e-bay. Also when the current digitation efforts progress,
  most of the out of copyright as well as copyright material would be
  available for free download or download purchase for a nominal price.

  So, soon the issue of any lodge or center or any bookshop carrying a book
  will become moot.
