Theos-Talk Archives (March 2009 Message tt00678)

Dear Keith

My views are:

Thanks a lot. That is as far as I am concerned a good e-mail.

I have tons of questions to ask.
But I will try to narrow it down to a "few".

Maybe you find my questions to be a bit off topic.
But think, that if you relate them to the words in your e-mail, you will find that they could be relevant give an answer.



1. What core teachings are today followed in TS Adyar, when compared to the days when H. P. Blavatsky lived? And have those changes been created in accordance with the original programe given by HPB and the Masters? Or are they more in accordance with for instance J. Krishnamurtis or C. W. Leadbeaters views?

2.  Are TS today following the view given by HPB on the importance to protest against deviations from the theosophical teachings by the use of the Theosophical magazines or similar medias?

3. Have TS changed its views upon the - level of - rejection of dogma and Christianity and Islam since HPB left the physical world? And to what degree or level? 

4. Is God a "he" and/ or a physical being as most a great number of theosophical books on sale tells us? Are one required to believe in J. Krishnamurti as a World Teacher today? And if not, how can that be reconciled with the fact that TS are selling books about him?

5. Can TS leaders today imagine persons who have been victims of child abuse to feel themselves to be WELL-comed and happy  members of the TS? And if yes, how is that to come about, when everyone talks negatively about C. W. Leabeaters past supposed sexually related "deeds" or activities? And if so, how can that be reconciled with the fact that TS today are selling books written by C. W. Leadbeater?

6. How are TS today relating to issues like UFOs, Cropcirlcles ("present day Mahatma Letters"?), and the so-called "Disclosure Project", while not being involved with Political activity?

7. Are any TS leaders today claiming to be in contact with the Masters like in the old days of TS?

8. Are the TS today succeding in the aim given by HPB to end the strife among various religions? (See The Key to Theosophy, p. 2-3.) If not why not, do you think?


Some of these question have maybe been answered somewhere before.
But I find them to be forwarded in various ways almost similar or relating very much to the above written by me, by a lot of persons on the Internet.

I will leave it up to you if you want to answer any of these questions.
Silence is of course also an answer.

H. P. Blavatsky wrote the article: "IS DENUNCIATION A DUTY?"

It was said: There is no religion higher than Truth.

  Subject: Theos-World TS Adyar - The Truth Unveiled


  Dear Friends

  I returned from the Theosophical Society in Adyar on 
  1 March 2009 after serving a six months term as the 
  International Secretary. A critical situation arose in 
  August last year on the surprise resignation of the 
  Secretary, and I was asked to drop my life to take up the 
  position for a short length of time. I agreed to do a six
  month term and was appointed on 1 September 2008.

  Since returning home I have had time to read the untruthful,
  inaccurate statements posted on the TS American website,
  regarding Adyar and the General Council Meeting in December,
  including the venomous, destructive statements emanating
  from New Zealand. 

  This disgraceful situation needs addressing, as many TS members
  naturally place trust in their elected section leaders. 

  I now find myself in the unique position of knowing the truth
  of these matters while holding no official position in the 
  Theosophical Society, except that I am an Australian member.

  I would therefore, like to offer my services to members of the
  group who would like to know the truth. I do not wish to enter
  into lengthy dialogue, but I am willing to answer any sensible
  questions, truthfully, and to the best of my ability.

  Best wishes
  Keith Fisher
