"The Alice Bailey bogeyman is really the worst of this crazy passive aggressive 
pattern. Adyar willing to lose entire national sections over it, Wheaton willing 
to engage in lawsuits against local groups over it, no one being willing to say 
outright: we fear and hate Alice Bailey so much that we can't or won't even name 
the person we're so freaked out about."

Dear fellow Theosophist.
I resigned my position as president of the Boston Theosophical Society in 1990 
after Wheaten tried to seize all of the Boston Lodges assets because it said we 
taught the Alice Bailey teachings amongst dozens of other esoteric traditions. I 
personally gave programs on HPB and the Secret Doctrine but resigned myself to 
build an organization no one could destroy because I refused to play the 
politics of the day. Now 15 years later I have my own website devoted to Both 
HPB and AAB. I get 75,000 visitors every month and am connected to every country 
in the world.
Â
One can argue that my site is not true Theosophy and just an illusion or see 
that the ancient wisdom teachings can be communicated in many new and creative 
ways. 

My website which is for the beginning student of Theosophy is.
Â
http://www.light-weaver.com/
Â
ÂAnd my latest occult contribution and paper which is for the advanced 
Theosophist.

Â
Times are changing and although the esoteric wisdom remains perennially the same 
there are many new and creative ways to attract the inquiry student to 
Theosophy.
Â
Blessings Duane

Two people neither of whom is known for straightforward plain talk about 
organizational problems, but rather underhanded swipes at perceived enemies 
deemed unworthy of being named yet worthy of being attacked.

The Alice Bailey bogeyman is really the worst of this crazy passive aggressive 
pattern. Adyar willing to lose entire national sections over it, Wheaton willing 
to engage in lawsuits against local groups over it, no one being willing to say 
outright: we fear and hate Alice Bailey so much that we can't or won't even name 
the person we're so freaked out about.
