H P B on the SIKHS

Dear Bart,

The best way to evaluate what H P B has to say on the SIKHS, (or
any other subject) is to read what she says, and then to compare
it (in this case) either with the entries in ENCYCLOPEDIA
BRITANNICA, or a standard history of the region in question. She
is not inaccurate, as can be easily ascertained.

Say: Todd's ANNALS OF RAJESTHAN, or

a TEXT BOOK OF INDIAN HISTORY (Publisher: Oxford University
Press)

Have you been able to do that?

Then you will be in a better position to evaluate the statements
of H. P. Blavatsky or of the Mahatmas.


Best wishes,

Dallas

Perhaps if you read a little about what the Sikhs say
about the Sikhs,
rather than considering Blavatsky the ultimate expert on their
religion?
Even the Mahatmas weren't experts on everything; if you had a
question
about English linguistics, would you check it out with Morya?
