Dear friends and Cass
My views are:
Cass wrote:
"we shall know them by their fruits is a biblical quote. "
My answer:
This biblical quote is esoteric teaching for those who knows about its meaning.
Blavatsky refers to it in her book The Key to Theosophy.
Cass wrote:
"I didn't suggest that Krishnamurti outshone Sai Baba - I said that Krishnamurti helped me whereas Sai Baba offers me nothing. His teaching is not even close to Advaita. "
My answer:
You are dead wrong. And your answer tells me that you have only superfiscial knowledge about Sathya Sai Baba's teachings.
Sathya Sai Baba's teachings are much more close to the true methaphysical teachings on Adwaita Vednata and in accordance with H. P. Blavatsky's and her Masters views. - Whereas J. Krishnamurti is not allowing any Guru's and Chela-realtions to exists. Only his on books - whereby he have created a sect of seperatism, opposing the Wisdom teachings of ages past. - H. P. Blavatsky, Ammonius Saccas and Sathya Sai Baba sought and are seeking to unite the wisdom teaching from all religions. J. Krishnamurti's teaching taken as an overall teaching is an obstacle to this teaching.
Cass wrote:
"Krishnamurti was a boy playing on a beach when he was spotted by Leadbeater. I think he was 8 years old, so Leadbeater got a hold of him before his brain was fully developed. "
My answer:
How can a World Teacher of the Age allow himself to be discovered by the Phaedofile Magician of the Age?
There is clearly something wrong here.

My answer:
So he was "vacant". I bet CWL liked that. And Krishnamurti's father agreed without any protests?
How can a vacant child write a book named "At the Feet of the Master", and publish it a year later in 1910 ? - Was he suddenly transformed in the magic hands of CWL?

"From Mr. Leadbeater to Mrs. Besant, September 11th., 1906:
You know I never for a moment suggested that the Masters dictated or approved such teaching. I should myself simply infer that They left me to make my own discoveries, and presumably therefore did not consider that this one thing out-weighs everything else, as you apparently do now, though you as certainly did not think so when we were together at Benares. Both matrimony and prostitution must obviously be worse, because in each case they involve action upon radically wrong, is it not more probable that in spite of that defect, they were willing to use what was good in me, than that both of us and several other people have been consistently and successfully deluded for many years, especially when you consider how much good came out of the delusion. If we are to suppose the whole transaction carried out by Dark Powers at the cost of infinite trouble, you do not see that the balance of result of that transaction is enormously against them? I suppose it is useless to write, because you have felt a certain line to be your duty and you naturally therefore see everything from that point of view; but at least do not let yourself be persuaded to think that I am still carrying on that line of teaching in spite of you; I yielded my opinion to yours at once, but it does not seem to have made any difference. All through the affair, I have guided my self as far as possible by what I thought you would wish. (Italics ours)

About Sathya Sai Baba, I questions all and everything.
What I am referring to is that his teachings have a lot in common with Ammonious Saccas teachings, where he is seeking to promote a synthesis of the wisdom teachings within all the major religions on the Planet. B. P. Blavatsky dis the same. A synthesis of the kernal of the major religions wisdom teahings is important so to end (or at least keep down) the strife and battles on this planet among ignorant and non-compassionate fanatics and bigots. - J. Krishnamurti only created a secterian teachings - without anyone to guide you on how to use cliarvoyance and other powers. No Gurus are allowed. These are important differences

we shall know them by their fruits is a biblical quote. I didn't suggest that Krishnamurti outshone Sai Baba - I said that Krishnamurti helped me whereas Sai Baba offers me nothing. His teaching is not even close to Advaita. But that is only my opinion - Krishnamurti was a boy playing on a beach when he was spotted by Leadbeater. I think he was 8 years old, so Leadbeater got a hold of him before his brain was fully developed. Apparently he was a vacant kind of kid. From K's point of view, Leadbeater was offering a life less poverty stricken and no doubt K's father thought this option would benefit his son. To lay the blame at K's feet is harsh of you - as soon as he was mature he saw the folly and abandoned it for his own path - and who can blame him for that as it is exactly what HPB said - each man's path is different.
Sathya Sai Baba, I believe, states that he is the reincarnation of the original Sai Baba with a 10 year gap between the death of Sai Baba and the birth of Sathya Sai Baba. Didn't you question this?

Dear friends and Cass
My views are:
I have a more relaxed attitude. I follow the theosophical view: We shall know them on their fruits and their teachings. (I.e. Not on romours and the like.) The court in India have, when asked, rejected to do anything, because of the lack of evidence.
Yet, I entirely agree on being careful about accepting him as an Avatar.
So why should we find J. Krishnamurti better than Sathya Sai Baba in promoting the Wisdom Teachings of All Ages Past?
Remember, that J. Krishnamurti allowed himself to be singlehandedly discovered by a Phaedofile or similar named C. W. Leadbeater.

A BBC Documentary notes that such controversies have persisted for at least 30 years [5]. The website of the American Embassy in Delhi, referring to Sai Baba[5], warns Americans visiting Andhra Pradesh of a "noted godman" who reportedly engages in "inappropriate sexual behaviour" with young male devotees.[5]
According to the Sathya Sai Organization there are an estimated 1,200 Sathya Sai Baba Centers in 114 countries world-wide.[ 9] The number of Sathya Sai Baba adherents is estimated sometimes as around 6 million, and followers cite "50 to 100 million."[10] He is considered by his followers to be an avatar and the reincarnation of the saint Sai Baba of Shirdi, however this has been strongly disputed

Dear friends and Cass
My views are:
Have you read Sathya Sai Baba's books with the SAME emphasis and compared them with J. Krishnamurti' s?
Commercials are not always objective. I think we know that.
Try this easy one: GUIDE TO INDIAN CULTURE AND SPIRITUALITY (Q & A's between Sai Baba and a Seeker).
http://sss.vn. ua/guide_ in.htm
Here are writings given by Sathya Sai Baba - taken down by a near follow named N. Kasturi.
http://www.sssbpt. info
A book about the Avatar and the allegations etc etc.
"SATHYA SAI BABA AS AVATAR" by Michael James Spurr, 2007, 450 pages
http://ir.canterbur y.ac.nz/bitstrea m/10092/1025/ 1/thesis_ fulltext. pdf
Sathya Sai Baba's teachings are called Purusothama Yoga (Something like - Karma, Bakhti, Jnana blended all one in one. Or something like the heart path of Adwaita Vedanta.)
- - -
Those interested will find a disagreement in dead letters between Sai Baba and H. P. Blavatsky on when the Kali Yuga began.
One will also find that Sathya Sai Baba's teaching are very synthetic in nature, similar to H. P. Blavatsky's. Whereas J. Krishnamurti' s was only a pseudo-Adwaita teaching where he almost always referred to himself and never to the sages and Avatars of the ancient times. And almost never comparing his words with others. No chela teachings like HPB and Sathya Sai Baba are in agreement about.
And when you read H. P. Blavatsky's book a Key to Theosophy you will understand the IMPORTANCE of seeking to promote, the mutual essence of the wisdom teachings from a religions of ancient past and present - so to seek to END all the strifes. And NOT to do like J. Krishnamurti - merely creating his own doctrine and sect, without really relating it to anything else but almost only his own thoughts.
But these are my views, and are written so that some of you might catch a glimpse of the true light and not a fanatical one no matter who is right or wrong.

Dear friends and Cass
My views are:
You wrote:
"I believe Krishnamurti fulfilled Blavatsky prediction that a Teacher would come"
H. P. Blavatsky wrote the following in her famous book The Secret Doctrine (Volume I + II):
"The same may be said of the whole Esoteric system. One turn of the key, and no more, was given in "ISIS." Much more is explained in these volumes. In those days the writer hardly knew the language in which the work was written, and the disclosure of many things, freely spoken about now, was forbidden. In Century the Twentieth some disciple more informed, and far better fitted, may be sent by the Masters of Wisdom to give final and irrefutable proofs that there exists a Science called Gupta-Vidya; and that, like the once-mysterious sources of the Nile, the source of all religions and philosophies now known to the world has been for many ages forgotten and lost to men, but is at last found."
(H. P. Blavatsky "The Secret Doctrine", vol. 1., ULT-edition, Facsimile of the original edition from 1888 ).
- - -
Now if J. Krishnamurti fulfilled H. P. Blavatsky's prediction he must have been giving - as Blavatsky said in the above - "final and irrefutable proofs that there exists a Science called Gupta-Vidya; and that, like the once-mysterious sources of the Nile, the source of all religions and philosophies now known to the world has been for many ages forgotten and lost to men, but is at last found."
Where were and are those - quoted - "irrefutable proofs" given by J. Krishnamurti?
And if Dalai Lama is the hot shot, where were or are his - quoted - "irrefutable proofs"?
And C. W. Leadbeater, who only were a clairvoyant for about 16 years before he singlehandedly discovered, lo, the Teacher of the AGE - and not the teacher of the decade, - where was his - quoted - "irrefutable proofs" on Gupta Vidya?
I conclude there were and are none yet.
Whereas - if anyone since 1925 until 2009 - should we said to have given such a proof, it aught to be Sathya Sai Baba despite the many bad romours about him.
Is there anyone who disagree with me on this?
Although, I am not the one saying that Sathya Sai Baba is the Avatar of the Age, despite he him self are saying that.

How would I know?
Cass
Mr. J.M. Prentice followed, and Dawn is able to reproduce his eloquent address in full. He said: -
"In view of the importance of this occasion, in view of the importance of the work we are starting tonight, I want - by way of introduction - to refer to something which I have never hitherto referred to in public: I want to tell you the circumstances in which H.P.B. died. I wish you to go back with me some thirty-two years and picture a room - half bedroom, half study, and see there an old woman, worn out in the work of Humanity, diseased and ill, gasping out her last few life-breaths. And I want you to note that as she dies a wave of despair well-nigh engulfs her, despair not for herself, but for the movement to which she has devoted her life. See her seated in a great arm-chair, and hear the last words which she whispers ere she dies: "Tell Annie to keep the link unbroken." That was the link with the Great Powers which were behind the Society and the White Lodge which was responsible for bringing it into
existence. I want to tell you something of the happenings in the years that have followed since then, and how Annie, who is, of course, Mrs. Besant, has acted in regard to keeping the link unbroken. It is a sad story. It is the story of one who failed to reach the level of greatness indicated for her, who failed so utterly as to make H.P.B.'s despair understandable now.
"Within two years of Blavatsky's death the lust for power that has been such a feature of Mrs. Besant's career manifested itself, and that dominant pride of personality that H.P.B. had so severely rebuked, had shown itself. In 1892 (3-4), there was - what shall I call it? - a conflict between two of the personalities that were left in charge of the movement, and the result of the clash was the ruinous experience known as the Judge secession in 1895. There is little profit in reviewing all the details, but I want to say this: it was largely the result of Annie Besant's work, of her failure to understand the principles of universal brotherhood, that the movement was well-nigh wrecked then. That section of the movement which followed Mr. Judge in 1895 passed, after his death in 1896, into the hands of Mrs. Katherine Tingley, who is still the leader of a comparatively small section of the Theosophical Society, and who is doing good work.
She has devoted herself to the cause of Universal Brotherhood and world peace, and we recognize the value of the work she has done in America, Holland, and the Scandinavian countries; but she again, because of this terrific lust for power, was not able to control even that portion of the movement which came under her control, so there was a further split, and that movement, that second secession, is now known as The United Lodge of Theosophists, which in turn is doing a splendid work, more especially in republishing Blavatsky's books exactly as she wrote them, and not as they have been re-edited since.
"The years that followed the Judge secession were marked by the introduction of Neo-Theosophy. Slowly there emerges the sinister figure of an old friend - C.W. Leadbeater. He
represents all that is worst in the whole movement. In 1906, and right on until 1908, there were launched round him a series of scandals that are so unsavory that I am not going to inflict any of them on you. He resigned in 1906, and, as Mr. Gillespie has told you, he went out originally with the unsparing condemnation of Mrs. Besant. However, she very soon brought him back, because she found him necessary in supplying her with all the psychic stuff requisite to the career on which she found herself embarked. She was not able to get all the choice bits of psychic information required to feed the flock of devotees with which she had surrounded herself, so, as our sinister friend had already succeeded in cultivating a world-wide impression that he was the greatest clairvoyant in existence, he was recalled to assist her. Moreover, in connection with the appearance of some questionable spooks that were construed in the Persons of the Masters at the death-bed
of the President-Founder, Colonel Olcott, Leadbeater had performed a signal service to Mrs. Besant by declaring, from the kindly shelter of a Sicilian villa to which he had retired in the hour of his downfall, that they were genuine. True, he was not there, and knew nothing of what had actually happened; but so cleverly had he worked himself in a position of being the mouthpiece of the Masters, that his testimony was sufficient to swing over many of the doubters, and so, by his help, Mrs. Besant had been elected President.
"In 1908 he triumphantly returned to the movement, and very shortly we see the first evidences of a plan which had been slowly maturing in his mind - the first direct evidence of absolute departure from Universal Brotherhood, and the neutrality that goes with it is in the beginnings of the "Order of the Star in the East." I know that we were told, until we were sick of listening to it, that the O.S.E. had no direct or official connection with the Theosophical Society; but it was one of the first fruits of Neo-Theosophy, it fastened itself on to the movement, and the parasitic growth has drawn its very life therefrom ever since.
"In 1911-12 there was another split. If there is anything in the world that Mrs. Besant will not tolerate, it is the possibility of a rival. She saw one in the person of Dr. Rudolph Steiner. It did not take long for Mrs. Besant to inaugurate a plan of campaign. She saw fit to expel the whole of the German Section of 2,500 members. And why? What do you think was her excuse for literally kicking out all these members? Because, she said, Dr. Steiner was giving a presentation of Theosophy which was Christian in its nature, that it would probably be offensive to non-Christian members in other parts of the world. And yet she now does everything she possibly can to foster and enliven the Liberal Catholic Church, another parasitic growth that has caused endless trouble in regard to the free-running life of the Society. The Liberal Catholic Church is much more likely to offend non-Christian Theosophists than ever was Dr. Steiner's presentation
of Theosophy. Indeed, it has offended many of us who were nominally Christian Theosophists - Christian by accident of birth, but Theosophists by conviction and long study. This is just a little example of the inconstancy that goes with Neo-Theosophy. And there are dozens of others. The chain that H.P.B. forged by her selfless service to Humanity has been broken, not once, but dozens of times, the chain that linked the world of today with all the splendid workers of the past, and which should have gone on into the future in unbroken splendor, has been broken into fragments because "Annie" was unfaithful to the charge given to her by the dying Blavatsky, and had failed to keep the particular link delivered into her hands unbroken.

Dear Cass
If I may add to your discussion, your point concerning
a teacher rather than Messiah is, from my perspective,
well made and significant.
Moreover, Madame Blavatsky's words "...numerous and
united body of people..." and "..an organisation awaiting
his arrival..." are also significant.
As I have mentioned previously, in 1973 the Dalai Lama
first visited the West in Europe.
He found "...numerous and united body of people..."
and an organisational structure ready for his teachings.
Many of these teachings are theosophical and from Madame
Blavatsky's masters' tradition.
She was entrusted to bring some of these same teachings to
the West a century earlier.
The Dalai Lama has certainly been a torchbearer for the light
of compassion and non-violence in the world.
And contrary to most religions, he also teaches we have to
discover the nature of our self, by ourselves, through
studying our mind and not through blindly following dogma,
despite his tradition's many dogmas.
Kind regards
Nigel

> Let each person have their free choice in accordance with the Law
of Karma. And let us tell people that we do NOT promote and sell
these books, and that we have our reasons for not doing so. They are -
perhaps and only perhaps - available at our libraries alongside the
books by the Spiritists, the Christian dogmatics and other misleading
teachings.

beginner seeker who visits a TS Bookshop say:

theosophical authors of the past 150 years, and he was indeed a good
and wise man? Honestly Pedro, if you agree to this I will have to ask
you: What planet do you come from?

> Each authors books and literary output have to valued in the face
of their contents and whether the individual author stands as a
disgrace to the theosophical teachings. H. P. Blavatsky clearly spake
out against selling all kind of books. And TS Adyar are not selling
all kind of books.

> Today we theosophists are faced with numerous websites bashing the
theosophical teachings because of C. W. Leadbeaters misconduct and
the promotion of a Messiah only 3 years after he were thrown out of
the Society.

their and our views on C. W. Leadbeater dammaging behaviour to the TS
teachings as they were given by H. P. Blavatsky and Master.

authors books aught to be prevented from being sold so not to damage
the WISDOM TEACHINGS of ALL AGES PAST. What do each of you think the
Master would say if you just would go on and sell all and everything.

> Remember H. P. Blavatsky for instance recommended reading Hargrave
Jennings book about The Rosicrucians: Their Rites and Mysteries
(1870). And she did well doing it. Can we say the same about C. W.
Leadbeaters books? No certainly not!

the idea of a carnalized saviour in the flesh. They do it by the use
of pseudo-Christian vocabulary, I will admit that. But they DO it.

out of his heart; accursed by Karmic action will find himself he who
throws dross into the melting-pot of discipleship for the debasement
