Theos-Talk Archives (June 2009 Message tt00472)

Morten, 
Now I can send the full text to my friends, if it had still been published I would have purchased multiple copies to give to friends as gifts. This makes it possible, thanks a lot again. I have saved Atma Light to my favorites and also the page there for Patanjali sutra. 
John

Hmmm, 
I. K. Taimni wrote the best exposition on the Yoga Sutra of Patanjali that I have seen of the modern translators. It has the most analytical focused sloka by sloka renditions. It is much more expansive them Charles, Besant, Rohit Mehta and many other versions. I often wondered why it is no longer published or available from Wheaton or Adyar. It is the one version I recommend to all my friends. It just figures that the one grain of gold attracts the negative Archons. 
I am restraining my opinions on the topic stream. But about the elections --- as a non-member I read in a post that Ms. Olivera received a vote on the very last day that a vote may be counted. But I also read in the same post that that vote was not counted. To me seeing that if it had been counted at that time is would have had a crucial change causing effect. Here in America they often extend the time limit of the closure time on that day to disarm charges off partisanship. I would appreciate a view about this one particular issue by someone who was there in Adyar when that decision was made. 
I don't have a horse in this race, but if I did I would begin with the day that Adyar threw Madame Blavatsky out on her butt! Virtually without means, informing her that her counsel and advice were no longer wanted or desired and to leave by morning. That was the water throwing out the pot that held it. Madame Blavatsky and Henry Steel Olcutt originally purchased the Adyar Property from thier own private funds! Is it any wonder that we end up here today discussing oxymoronics? Madame Blavatsky publicly announced that all the inner group patricipants except I think one ( which i also think she did not name?) failed. That statement communicates an important reality wouldn't some agree? Why is there even such structure after she went beyond beyond? India for Indians seems to be a pattern to glazed over eyes. I think Pasadena did the right action having a true perception. William Quan Judge's wife unceremoniosly tossed the vial of Madame Blavatsky ashes that was given to her husband after her cremation into the garbage can right after he died I just wonder baoutthat too. 

Regards, 
John

If I am correct, during the John Coats years, the International President was not the head of the ES.

Do you know how these different offices got concentrated in one person in 1980s? I need confirmation of this information. Somebody told me that I.K. Taimni was the Outer Head of ES. He was "made to leave" that post. If somebody has more information on this, it will enable us to know if my information is correct.
