Theos-Talk Archives (October 2010 Message tt00103)

My friend, these are all the symptoms of an institure in decline. The old guard has lost itself in futile, ego-driven power struggles and has failed to train and establish a new, young and vigorous line of replacements to guide theosophy trhough the 21st century when they're gone - and as a consequence, theosophy is now as dead as a doornail.

regards,

Theo
