Only Bhagavad Gita. Seems more straightforward than HPB does to me.

It isn't only difficulty I am talking about. I am able to read some pretty
difficult stuff, but I DO find HPB somewhat obscure in comparison. I am tempted
to offer a suggestion for explanation of this obscurity. Its like she is
"overdoing" it, mentally speaking. But I'll refrain from attempted explanations,
since I really don't want to appear to be "critical", that's not my point.

No it isn't. There is a big differences in style between the KEY and the SD.
