Theos-Talk Archives (March 2009 Message tt00102)

The letters were transmitted telepathically - from master's thoughts to brain of chela - chela then writes down those ideas received - not unlike an intuitive idea springing up from what appears to be nowhere and not connected to the conscious perception of the individual - this appears to be the same phenomena as channellers experience.

Once again we find contradiction in statements. One statement says
"every word in it was dictated"
Comapare this statement with other two statements in so called Mahatma
Letters.
Other statement says "Generally they make their chela, whether near or
far away, [physically] write (or precipitate) them, by impressing upon
his mind the IDEAS they wish expressed"
"It depends entirely upon the chela's state of development, how
accurately the ideas may be transmitted and the writing-model imitated."
Earlier statements says WORDS were dictated. And the other two
statements say IDEAS are conveyed. It also says that contents in the
letter depended on "CHELA'S STATE OF DEVELOPMENT" . If Masters had
dictated every word to chela, and if chela could reproduce with
accuracy, then letter would be accurate transcription of Masters
words. But it is not so because letter depended on "chela's state of
development"
It means we can't assume that Mahatma Letters were accurate
transcription of Masters words.
