Anand: Sorry if I wrote aggressively to you. I just can't understand
your innocent attitude towards Besant and Leadbeater and your mocking
at Krishnamurti. I think AB and CWL were and are important people in
spreading and introducing theosophy, but I also think that we should
use our discrimination skill. I am not "Krishnamurtian", but I
respect his teachings much and via that also N. Sri Ram and Radha.
Don't you guys read "The Theosophist"? Dara Tatray wrote an article
as an answer to this "pathless land" question. See "Is there a `Way
of Theosophy'?", The Theosophist, May 2007. She even quoted there the
same "There's a Road?" poem by HPB which is quoted by you, Anand, in
your message below.
Btw, I am a "he".
