Theos-Talk Archives (May 2011 Message tt00117)

Dear friends,

While we don't have "The Judge Case" accessible online for
everyone, we have published a chapter of the work of Ernest Pellitier.

The chapter is entitled "The Wills of Helena P. Blavatsky".

Here is an excerpt:



00000000000000000000000

Shortly after reviewing The Secret Doctrine Annie Besant joined the
Theosophical Society on March 10th, 1889. Besant had made a name for
herself as one of England's finest orators and her abilities were needed
by the growing Society. Besant showed great promise as a student of
Theosophy and was soon sitting at H.P.B.'s side acknowledging her as
her new guru. She was quickly brought in as a pledged member of the
Esoteric Section. Just one month before her death H.P.B. appointed
Besant (April 1st, 1891) as the Chief Secretary of the Inner Group of
the Esoteric Section and Recorder of the Teachings,[1] and arranged for
her to go to America to meet William Q. Judge and deliver Blavatsky's
message to the American Convention held April 26th - 27th, 1891, as her
special delegate. At the time Besant accepted that Judge was an
Occultist, a view she later discounted. On May 8th Blavatsky died in
London while Besant was on her way back from America.

Besant had sailed for England on May 6th and, upon receiving word of
Blavatsky's death, Judge followed on May 13th, 1891. Olcott would not
sail from India until June 15th. Evidentiary facts have been gathered
and are presented here for consideration regarding that period between
Blavatsky's death on May 8th and the time of Judge's arrival in London
on May 21st, 1891.

Blavatsky executed her first Will before she left India in early 1885.
According to Olcott she drew up a Will on January 31st, 1885. Olcott
stated:

"The witnesses were P. Sreenivasa Row, E.H. Morgan, T. Subba Rao,
and C. Ramiah. It contains a clause to the effect that she wishes her
ashes to be buried within the compound of the Headquarters at Adyar; and
another request that annually, on the anniversary of her death, some of
her friends should assemble here and read a chapter of the Light of Asia
and one of Bhagavad Gîtâ." [2]

This is the Will and Testament which is being kept at Adyar to this day,
and considered Blavatsky's official Will. But it was not the Last
Will and Testament she executed.
