Dear Duane
Thank you for your constructive response.
Your statement, "âthe spirit working over long cycles of time
has its own wisdom and may know exactly what it is doing"
itself contains profound humility and wisdom to me.
Moreover your statement, "The study of paradoxes or what appears
as inconsistencies to the human mind is only one of the first hurdles
the neophyte most come to understand in the true study of occultism,"
reminds me of two things.
Firstly, the third and fourth slokas in the Voice of the Silence;
"The Mind is the great Slayer of the Real. Let the Disciple slay the
Slayer."
Only when we allow other faculties to operate within our
consciousness can we hope to transcend the limitations of our
reductionist, analytic mindset.
Secondly, from one of the true treasures of the Adyar Theosophical
Society, Mary Anderson, came the astute words, "Only when our
mind develops an accommodation for the qualities of ambiguity
and paradox can it hope to come closer to the mysteries of
existence."
>From my perspective the "Krishnamurti - Leadbeater fiasco" involved
a far greater intention than the merely individual actions of the various players.
Kind regards
Nigel

We humans scurry around in our bewilderment about who did what and why when the spirit working over long cycles of time has its own wisdom and may know exactly what it is doing. HPB's statement that "truth is stranger then fiction" may apply here.

Why not suggest that the K finding was the result of a papal plot to discredit Theosophy, or of a dugpa, or if the Raj to further undermine the home rule movement. This sort of speculation is nothing to do with Theosophy or The truth about Leadbeater or K. NO wonder this whole site deals with matters that are largely irrelevant to most members.
