But Chuck, 

You also will have withdrawal symptoms if you stop selling the dugpa's nets, ropes, duct tape, pacifiers, itch powder, blindfolds, red hats and hooded gowns to say nothing of the effect on the bank deposits!!! Lol! 

Regards, 

John

Do you have any idea how hard it is to do nefarious and cunning work behind 

the scenes wearing those big red hats? People can see us miles away!

Avoiding ensnarement by Dugpas 

. 

There are references to Dugpa in early theosophical literature. In a letter 

to Sinnett, HPB states "The first bomb-shell from Dugpa world came from 

America.." There are also other references to Dugpa in letters from the 

Masters. C Jinarajadasa, former President, mentions how Coulombs were the 

pawns of Dugpas unknown to themselves. Besant has mentioned that HPB was 

under constant attack from Dugpas. Why? It is their job to attempt to 

destroy the TS. So is it unreasonable to expect they are busy at work 

trying 

to destroy TS. So one wonders about their role in the crisis that TS has 

faced since early last year. 

. 

There has been very little discussion about Dugpas in theosophical 

literature. In the minds of many traditional students of theosophy, there 

seems to be some fear to talk about them. I do not know why? 

. 

Theosophical movement is a monumental effort on the part of the Brotherhood 

in the modern era and the commitment and power of the Brotherhood is behind 

it. A P Sinnett wrote: 

. 

"As already explained, as far back as the year 1830 the Brothers â the 

Elder 

Brethren of humanity and those of still loftier spiritual attainment all 

merged in the Divine Hierarchy and constituting the sublime organization 

that we have drifted into speaking of as The White Lodge - held their 

momentous conference. They provided for the establishment of Spiritualism, 

and for the later experiment that eventually took the shape of the 

Theosophical Society." 

. 

Where does a student of theosophy come into the picture? Dugpas use 

unsuspecting members as their cat's paws unknown to themselves. Also due to 

the miniscule size of the membership compared to the world population, and 

the monumental work, everyone is a potential target of the Dugpas. Woe to 

those who fall prey to them. The victims unknown to themselves, end up 

doing 

more harm to themselves than they do to the movement. So it is the duty of 

each one of us to be forewarned about the red flags that would alert us 

from 

falling a prey. 

. 

Dugpas do not have any principles to follow. They are very cunning. End, 

justifies the means. So anything is OK so long as the victim is snared. 

Primarily, according to a statement in one of the Letters to APS, they use 

of pride and egoism of the individual and once a weakness is found in 

either 

of them, you are caught in their net unknown to yourself. Of course other 

temptations like, sex, money, power of position etc are also used. Anyone 

who researches TS history, can see for himself/herself instances of such 

exploitation. 

. 

Nefarious work is always done behind the scenes. Clever and cunning agents 

of the Dugpas, usually operate behind the scenes, to make it appear their 

hands are clean. They are likely to use other unwitting innocent sub agents 

who are again ensnared by the same temptations as pride, egoism, perceived 

self-importance etc. 

. 

How does one protect oneself from falling a victim? Very very simple. Just 

look at the first object of TS - Brotherhood. Also look at the motto of TS 

- 

There is No Religion Higher Than Truth. In addition, one of the Masters 

stated that a theosophist is a philanthropist. If we check all our actions 

on the principles of Brotherhood, Truth, and philanthropy and even if there 

is slightest conflict with any of them, you have a problem - a chink in the 

armor - and it would be taken advantage of by the Dugpas. An alert 

intelligent man or woman, who sees such a conflict immediately 

disassociates 

and saves himself/herself with the proposed actions. Also, if one relies on 

independent judgment and action, not try to be the front or mouth piece of 

anyone else, one can identify the problems quickly. 

. 

HPB once stated that she was troubled more by theosophical traitors than 

from others. So, Dugpas are more likely to target active members especially 

those in leadership, because this is the most effective approach to cause 

most damage. Hence, if we are more active and perhaps a leader, more alert 

and cautious we should be. At the same time, we should not forget that each 

one of us is vulnerable unless we are ever vigilant. 

. 

Vigilance will save ourselves and the TS.
