MKR and all,
To bring you back to the point being mentioned by myself below:
The President of the Theosophical Society in an article called The Watch-Tower published in every issue of the Theosophist -- which is the official organ of the President of the TS -- mentioned that JK was chosen because of his Brahmin birth to be a World Teacher.
So what is a casteist person like Mrs Radha Burnier doing as President of an international organization whose First Object is the creation of a nucleus of the Universal Brotherhood of humanity irrespective of Class, Caste, Race, Creed etc.? Don't you think it a little strange that even today despite all her untheosophical activities she is given the power and authority she has and holds?
Fraternally

Hmmm,
Cowboys and Indians what an amazing theory! Where was Krishna's Last stand at? The battle of Little Big Bull muat have been quite a sight!. Is is it possible the Custard's Last Stand never really happened? Or was Gen. Custard just a new recipe' for pudding?
Lol,

Well, that is certainly true of most of the older Theosophical literature.

Recently, I was discussing the brahmin caste issue with a friend of mine
in
the USA. It was very revealing when he mentioned that out of the 10
Avatars
mentioned in the Hindu Scriptures, only one of them was a brahmin. Many of
them belong to Kshatriya (warrior) class. Two of the most revered avatars,
Rama and Krishna is an example. Rama was a King and Warrior class and
Krishna was a cowboy class. Thought some in the west may be interested.
