Want me to upload them again?
On http://youtubedownload.altervista.org/ you can download a free program to
download any video on the web...in case youtube is censoring or other providers,
you can simply put them up at an own server/provider...

Dear friends
My views are:
Theosophical Network has posted the following rules for their forum, blogs etc.:
"Rules of the Road
First and foremost, posts and comments should be respectful. In keeping with
this, certain kinds of comments should be avoided. These include:
1. Comments of a discriminatory or prejudicial nature: Under no circumstances
should there be discrimination on bases such as race, gender, age, class,
religious or political affiliation, sexual orientation or other sweeping
categorical bases not listed above. Common sense should be observed when in
doubt; if your comments are openly prejudicial against any group, they should
not be posted.
2. Personal attacks: This category can be much broader than it seems at first
glance. Obviously, there should be no name-calling or overt put-downs in our
discussion. However, this rule is not restricted solely to these more blatant
forms of personal attack. Please be respectful of the viewpoints of others, even
if you disagree with them. We cannot all agree, but we can agree to disagree."
.......
"5. Harassment/abuse: Many activities that fall under this heading also fall
under other headings, but harassment and abusive treatment in general will not
be tolerated. This includes things already mentioned, such as name calling and
personal attacks, but also includes things such as stalking (following a
person's posting activity and posting abusive messages to them in many different
places), personal threats/intimidation, extortion, etc.
This includes private messages. Harassment is not acceptable just because it is
not public.
If you feel that you are being harassed or treated poorly by another member
through private messages on the Community, please do not hesitate to contact an
administrator. The Theosophical Network Admin Team can be reached by sending a
message to TheosNet1@kUK8Q9CWLoq0Cn8fWu8lux5-f3Q7p11UAZRUIetez441AbfRVy-MzfNWM2sHx8gyGzkjCeAbPaj7PZc.yahoo.invalid ."

*******
A few question seem to araise, when reading the above.
Since the Theosophical Network is openly declaring it self to be based on - the
theosophical teachings - and clearly want to give people the impression that
their aims are in accordance with the aims of theosophy (ie. Wisdom of the Gods)
- and "To form a nucleus of the Universal Brotherhood of Humanity, without
distinction of race, creed, sex, caste, or color.", --- I wonder whether the
following series of videos are in accordance with the Theosophical Network's
above rules on "Comments of a discriminatory or prejudicial nature" or "Personal
attacks" or "Harassment/abuse"?
Here are the series of videos in mention:
HPB Spiritual traveller part 1 from 6
http://theosnet.ning.com/video/hpb-spiritual-traveller-part-3
I ask:
Can the above videos not be said to be a nasty attack on H. P. Blavatsky as well
as the original Theosophical Society (1875-1891) - OR - against the view
mentioned in the rules: "if your comments are openly prejudicial against any
group, they should not be posted."?
Prejudicial
1. Detrimental; injurious.
2. Causing or tending to preconceived judgment or convictions

I just ask.
I will let the readers decide for themselves.
