Re: Theos-World TS Adyar - The Truth Unveiled

Dear Bruce

Your guess is as good as mine on all these questions.

Hopefully, there will be no split, there are much better 
ways to achieve harmony.  It is up to members to see
the folly of their own ways, correct any errors, and unite
to restore peace and tranquillity.

Most members do not know what is going on, those who
have found out are usually sickened by it, and we have
lost quite a few long standing members.  Who can blame 
them walking away from such hostility.

I sincerely hope the problems are resolved soon.

Best wishes
Keith

And if so, how can that be reconciled with the fact that TS today are selling books written by C. W. Leadbeater?
