      In the olden days someone who was 86 years old was usually dead.

MKR,



I am glad you are finally recognizing that an 86-year-old  President CANNOT 

lead the TS forward. So then what is she doing in the  President's chair? 

Might it not be better that she left it to younger blood?  In the olden days 

when people were purer and understood the laws of Nature,  someone who was 

86 years old would be in Sadhana Ashrama, rather than in  Grhastha Ashrama. 

Our President for all her knowledge of many things seems to  have ignored 

this fact...and so the TS suffers from corruption of all kinds  under a 

President who cannot let go.



But, yes, thank you for  recognizing that we DO NEED A YOUNGER PRESIDENT TO 

RUN THE  TS.



Fraternally



Preethi

I wouldn't worry too much for the TS, its message  has had its purpose and 

went across the globe. We live in a world now, where  any sacred work can be 

bought, any state of being can be bought and any  nirvana can be bought as 

well...however knowing all sacred works, having  experienced all kinds of 

mindalterings and buying your way into nirvana will  only be temporary untill 

one forgets and the next life will bring real  trouble...



Being poor and appreciating what Nature gives you, learning  how It wants 

to deal with you, and blessing you with good sleep will  ultimately carry you 

beyond Nirvana...no TS needed.

Subject: Theos-World World Congress in  Rome



The World Congress in Rome is scheduled in July. I am sure that  many of the



General Secretaries and others from Europe would be  attending. Of course,



due to the cost of travel and accommodation, the  attendance from rest of 

the



world is not expected to be much. Rich  members and others whose travel



expenses are met from TS Section  treasury can be expected to attend.



Has anyone seen the program  schedule? I hope they would address the most



urgent issue - membership.  Aging leadership and difficulty in attracting



younger members, if  continued, we are looking for a downward trend in



membership and some  sections would survive till their treasury runs out. It



is a very sad  state of affairs.



All the events starting with the election of the  President and the cleavage



in the GC membership is slowly marring the  good image the theosophy and TS



had in the world simply due to the  dedication and unselfishness of past



leaders. When they also see the  attempted secret disenfranchisement move to



seize the presidency by a  handful of GC members, it presents a very poor



picture to prospects.  All the participants involved in the past issues have



been_ silent and  we have not seen any serious steps to bring about



cooperation which is  urgently needed. We have no idea as to what is cooking



behind the  scenes.



I hope the World Congress addresses urgent serious issues and  not a just a



vacation like gathering for those who can  attend.



MKR
