Theos-Talk Archives (October 2010 Message tt00065)

"Stolen"? Hahaha, No one owns a thing here in this Universe, thats why the 
seperated beings try to keep things for themselves...We all poor from the One 
Intelligence, our minds and bodies are made by the Sun, Moon(hidden planet, 8th 
dimesion/sphere) and the Earth and our Intuition descended from the Cosmic 
Heart...We do not live, we are lived and therefore have to cooperate and share 
what we find, if not ...suffering... Buddha understood this best, that is why KH 
and others see Him as the most holy of holy...pity He couldn't explain it to the 
people of today, since all that inherrited His Teachings is selling Bookists, 
not Buddhists... You may now understand why a Digital Theosophical Society 
should be formed, since the unworthy people will strand on pornsites while the 
others may find their way toTheosophy...

I think the key came in an brief exchange in the Olcott Library many years ago.  
An elderly lady was staying at Olcott for a short time, doing something 
Theosophical, and she came into the library walked into the stacks and asked why 
the writings of Alice Bailey were there, not because of any objection to what 
they said, but because, as she said, they were all stolen from the Esoteric 
Section teachings.

That alone would send them up the walls and over the battlements.

This was a very contemporary article to have been written a hundred years ago!  
As for the "dethroning of popes" that still is the main thing needed IMO.  But 
now in addition to an authoritarian mindset on behalf of the current leadership, 
the popes of 100 years ago are untouchable, beyond criticism, still enthroned 
even though long dead. 


I would think that Morten and I agree about the relative value of the writings 
of Leadbeater and Bailey compared to those of HPB.  I'd be equally disinclined 
to spend time on either one, but if others in a group wanted to study them would 
not object, just skip those classes.  But the difference in the TS is that 
nothing negative can ever said about the former, nothing positive about the 
latter, without making The Powers That Be extremely uncomfortable.  What is it 
about Bailey in particular that creates such a paranoid atmosphere throughout 
the TS?
