Theos-Talk Archives (June 2009 Message tt00495)

Dear MKR,
Transparency and such conditions greatly depend on the International President. As all offices like ES, masonry and TS Presidency are concentrated in Mrs. Burnier, she has considerable control over what happens in TS. Changes like transparency depend on her, to great extent. For many years no General Secretary dared to challenge or question Mrs. Burnier for the reasons Annie Besant mentioned and I elaborated further. It is only last year that John Algeo unexpectedly gave tough fight in Presidential election. Supporters of Mrs. Burnier won't like it. But such election actually is the sign that democracy exists to some extent. Suppose John Algeo had announced two years back that he would run for the Presient, would Mrs. Burnier appoint John as Vice-President?  I don't think she would have. It appears that because he challenged her in Presidential election, he is not again selected for any office at international level. 

In this Presidential election I was neutral toward both the candidates. Somebody circulated wrong message that I supported John Algeo. That has made some officers in Adyar TS to go against me. I don't give a damn because they will be damned by karmic results of their own actions.
