Theos-Talk Archives (February 2010 Message tt00001)

MKR,

One must also know that lawyers can be bought. Also, that the Right and Wrong are beyond what are socially lawful. Social laws can be twisted, but the Right and the Wrong cannot. And for those who want to belong to the Occult world, these are set and rigid and fixed.

When rape happens, one doesn't need to know the law or be a qualified lawyer to know that someone is being raped. One just knows that rape is a crime. Much like that when a murder is committed, one knows -- layperson or not -- that murder is a crime. One ought also, in like manner, to know that corruption is impermissible in the TS, for A clean life is essential to any spiritual progress and Path.

So could you please cut out the talk on who can or cannot raise a voice about how the TS is functioning today?

Thank you and fraternally
Preethi

      In cyberspace, you will find very interesting allegations about the

International President and the rules and regulations and the procedures and

processes adopted by the General Council in its proceedings. They are very

well written, possibly with the help or editing of someone who is a master

of English Language. If it were a college credit project, it would get a

grade A without any doubt.



Any time you are in any position of authority, there will always be

allegations and they come with the job. Leaders have to live with them.



When it comes to rules and regulations and procedures and processes used by

the General Council in its proceedings, it falls into the legal category.

Only lawyers are competent to analyze and interpret them. It is their job.

All we have seen are comments on the legal matters by people using

pseudonyms (thus hiding from personal responsibility - it does not show

daring that is necessary for any theosophist to make progress) and not

lawyers.



What I would like to see are comments or opinion from a practicing lawyer

who is fully versed with the law of India and Chennai where Adyar is

located. If a practicing lawyer issues a signed comment or opinion, then it

would have the legitimacy and credibility.



Anything else is simply does not have any real weight even though they may

be repeated like a broken record on Internet by people using pseudonyms.
