Dear friends and Martin
My views are:
Sorry if I sound a bit confused, because was it not you who sought to use words by Sathya Sai Baba on Jesus as a proof on that Sathya Sai Baba was what you call a "fake"?
So far I have only been offered your "feelings" now transformed into a "Heart" as a proof on that Sathya Sai Baba was what you call a "fake".
Please, what was the actual title on that book about Jesus, which you say Sathya Sai Baba have written, where you claim to have found proof?
Yes agreed, there are discrepancies between the theosophical teachings given by H. P. Blavatsky and the ones given by Sathya Sai Baba with regard to Jesus life and teachings.
What I have is for instance the following:
1.
Jesus was born year 120 bc. in Lydda /Lod says H. P. Blavatsky.
Sathya Sai Baba have according to a number of devotees and authors several times said that he was born year 0 in the december. BUT, those saying this are most of the time westerners and not Sathya Sai Baba himself. But look in the below links.
As far as I remember, one can find a quote on Sathya Sai Baba saying:
Jesus died on the croos, but resurrected, and really died in Kashmir year 115 a.d. and was in fact a promotor of Mahayana Buddhism.
What is important is not whether Sathya Sai Baba is worshipped or another idol or thought of an Avatar, which you call God, so says the man from India. Jesus, Buddha, Krishna and other Avatars can be used, no problem there. It is your actions and deeds or lack of deeds, which are important.
2. The following I find to be close to the truth, though we can discuss, why the events occured:
"As stated at the beginning of this article, the first fleeting mention of Jesus in the Discourses does not occur until Christmas 1970. SB was already aged 44. This was a crucial time in the development of the Organisation when Western interest was accelerating considerably. Subsequent more detailed mentions of Jesus by SB came at Christmas 1971, 1972, 1976, 1978, and almost annually to date as more and more Westerners flocked to Puttaparthi for Christmas."
"SB's main emphasis, and his references to Jesus elsewhere, is not on Jesus as a full Avatar"
"However, in the references that follow, there is a bewildering series of discrepancies and inconsistencies regarding the participants at the birth of Jesus, His life and travels, His statements, and His father's death, and even the date. For much of this, as with so many aspects of the Sai Baba story, there is an unfortunate lack of documentary evidence. But the facts themselves are not so important, since even Christian theologians are endlessly arguing about them and there have also been several serious scholarly books which attempt to disprove the physical existence of Jesus Christ. As far as the credibility of the allegedly omniscient Sai Baba is concerned, it is the confusion, the discrepancies and the continual variations on themes which are damaging."
http://bdsteel. tripod.com/ More/Jesus1. htm
Based on my own experiences, Jesus was not a full Avatar, at least in the sense that he was only blended with the Avatar principle during a certain part of his physical incarnation. If one read H. P. Blavatsky carefully, one will find that she also seems to agree on this view.
Sai Baba says that he was pure without mistakes, and elsewhere he says, that Jesus developed during his incarnation, and heard a voice guiding him at one time or other.

"Do not talk ill of any one with contempt, do not think of any one as low or mean. Christ
declared, "All are One; be alike to everyone." Hating an individual, or institution, or a religion is
a low act."
(Sathya Sai Speaks, vol. 12, p. 72 - edited by N. Kasturi)
http://www.sathyasa i.org/search/ volume12/ sss12.pdf
4.
"Jesus was a person whose only joy was in spreading Divine Love, offering Divine Love,
receiving Divine Love and living on Divine Love.
There are various theories about the birth date of Jesus based on the 'bright star that appeared at his birth.' It is visible once in 800 years, it is said. Some say he was born on the fifteenth day of September. But, he was born at 3-15 a.m. (early morning) on December 28, 1980 years ago. It was Sunday. The Star that appeared that day appears only once in 800 years. Its appearance had nothing to do with the birth of Jesus. There is no rule that, when Divine Energy or Divine Incarnation descends on Earth, a star has to appear. That is the opinion of devotees only. But, Jesus was himself a 'Star' of infinite value, spreading brialliance of infinite dimension. Why posit another less brilliant glow?"
...
"We are true Christians only when we live according to the teachings of Christ and practise them in daily life."
(Sathya Sai Speaks, vol. 14, p. 153 - edited by N. Kasturi)
http://www.sathyasa i.org/search/ volume14/ sss14.pdf
But this passage have been edited by N. Kasturi, and perhaps it is a mistake.
H. P. Blavatsky flatly disagreed upon this view, and her Masters as well.

About smoking:
"One bad habit that has taken deep root in this area is the smoking of tobacco, an evil that is fast becoming universal. It destroys aarogyam, aanandham, uthsaaham (health, happiness, energy) and even andham (charm). Smoke will not quench your thirst or fill the hungry stomach. It disfigures your face and denigrates your lungs. It debilitates you and makes you diseased. Control yourself and do not yield to the snares of friends or society or, what is miscalled social convention, and become a prey to this and other bad habits."
(Sathya Sai Speaks, vol. 1, p. 73 eller 87 - edited by N. Kasturi or Indulal Shah)
http://www.sathyasa i.org/search/ volume14/ sss14.pdf
At another place in 1994:
"Cigarettes have a poison nicotine, which is dangerous and leaves marks in the nerves of the body. In addition to nicotine, carbon monoxide is also present in the smoke. These spoil the lungs, and cause heart diseases and cancer. (Swami shows his white handkerchief. ) ...When the lungs, blood vessels and nerves are thus affected, it is difficult to control the senses."
(Sai News Australia , IV, Spring & Summer 1994, 4 - now discontinued)

This is a good place to search info on what Sathya Sai Baba actually said, and not what romours put down his mouth. These books are near 100% in accordance to what Sathya Sai Baba said:

There are four types of persons---those who see only right everywhere, those who are less spiritual in their vision and so see right as right and wrong as wrong, those who shut their eyes to right and see only wrong and lastly, the worst of all, those who judge even the right to be wrong.

not to be too harsh on you:
I could change the word feeling into the word heart, so my heart has never betrayed me. Ok with you now?
Also, why interested in Jesus? The guy never exsisted as put down in the Bible ( or By-baäl ).
All religion has but one cause, the reflection of people's minds on the effect of Nature in them and around them. That Nature is called Love in Harmony, which on Itself is a reflection of Truth which is the Mirror-Shield ( or the Middle of the Balance ) of the Unknown or Parabrahm or Paramapadatmawa ( beyond the Spirit or Atma ).

That is wrong.

You cannot base your judgement on mere "feeling" and no evidence. That is bad Wisdom teaching.

Hi Morten:
If we consider ourselves to be only temporary human, we could say we are all avatars. As soon as we attach ourselves to being human, we become human...then perfect human..buddha. .and again avatar. However when we claim ourselves out in the open being an avatar and proof otherwise, it is a lot harder to get back on track. And of course there are avatars and Avatars...Avatars of Light and of Darkness even...the most difficult to find are those disguised as dugpa's, the easiest who are disguised as 'avatars'...

Yes. I am aware of this.
And I do find it strange, that Sathya Sai Baba, who is naming himself an
Avatar of the Age are allowing these accusations to pass, without doing more
about it.
My problem is, that the India Court have reject any atempts of lawsauits
against him so far du to lack of evidence. So as long, as no concrete
evidence can be produced, I can hardley agree with just supporting romours.
The situation was and is quite different when we talk about C. W.
Leadbeater, and TS Adyar is painfully aware of it!
- - -
Remember, that Sathya Sai Baba's views on sexuality have clearly been told
about by himself on several ocassions.
>>> Here are a few words written in the early days <<<
"Do not be contented if you give some food for the worldly hunger of the
senses. Do not lower your ideals for the sake of cheap fame or vulgarise
public taste. Instead of loukika sringaram (worldly enjoyment of sex), give
aloukika Aathmaanandham (Bliss of the Self). Contribute to the expansion of
love, the purification of motives, the enlargement of sympathy, the
tolerance of difference, the respect for individual striving."
(Sathya Sai Speaks, vol. IV, p. 21 - published 1964)
http://www.sathyasa i.org/search/ volume04/ sss04.pdf
"You must be careful about the food you take; for, the jihva (tongue) and
the guhya (organ of generation) are the two great foes of man; the cravings
of hunger and sex drag you into perdition. Desist from catering to the
tongue and its greed; do not be a victim of lust or taste. Have pure food
and eat it in company of the pure. Be moderate in food and keep the senses
strictly under control."
(Sathya Sai Speaks, vol. V, p. 9 - published 1965)
http://www.sathyasa i.org/search/ volume05/ sss05.pdf
"In this world which is impermanent and ever transforming, the Immanent
Power of the Lord is the only permanent and fixed entity. In order to
realise the eternal and the true, one has perforce to attach oneself to that
Source and Sustenance. There is no escape from this path. It is the destiny
of one and all, irrespective of age or scholarship, clime or caste, sex or
status."
(Sathya Sai Speaks, vol. I, p. 22 - published 1956)
http://www.sathyasa i.org/search/ volume01/ sss01.pdf
"The Mahapurushas, the Mahatmas, the Jnanis, the Yogis ... will all be
co-operating in the task of re-establishing righteousness and clearing the
path for the World-attaining Santhi. " (Sathya Sai Speaks, vol. I, p. 29 -
published 1958)
http://www.sathyasa i.org/search/ volume01/ sss01.pdf
"Before marriage, he is half body. Before marriage, she is half body. Lady
is always left side. Right side is gent's. The gent's body is always the
right side of the wife. Now you have only one body. In Indian philosophy or
custom, this is called ardhangi. (Ardha means half.) Wife before marriage is
only ardhangi, half body. Now the left side is joined with the right side
and you are full body."
(Divine Memories of Sathya Sai Baba)
Sai Baba also says:
'The real marriage is with God'; 'First man has 2 legs, he gets marries and
becomes an animal with 4 legs. They get one child, a six-legged scorpion,
then another, an 8-legged cockroach.'
- - -
Sai Baba's Yoga is of 5 parts - Dharma, Jnana, Karma, Bakthi, and Dhyana are
blended into one. Harmoni between head, heart and hands are your duty.
Thoughts should be ciltivated in your spiritual Heart, where they grow up
and out over the head and spreads to the joy and happiness of the whole
world.
Yes. - Sure I am concerned. I am not a Sai devotee, because of the manner
the SathyaSai organisation is being run. Too much (almost blind) bakthi, way
too much to my taste. Yet the most emotional persons among us craves
something like that even when it is not what they spiritually NEED.
And you are saying that none of the romours come from the Jesuits or the
Militant Christians in USA? None at all?
Yet I also remain a critic of Sathya Sai Baba's acitivties regarding his
silences in the years after the romours and accusations. Yet no actual proof
has emerged so far, and that we will have to take into account.
All those who are a treath to secterian beliefs are a treath to the Jesuit
and Dugpa schemes, and they will do all in their power to throw these
treaths to pieces.
- - -
I am just seeking to present a more balanced view upon the issue.

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.
Cass wrote:
"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. "
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

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

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?

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.

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
